Changes to blog comments and new stuff in the store
October 28, 2010 by Diana -
I have made a couple of changes that effect blog comments. At least temporarily, all comments will have to be approved before they are posted to the blog. This will mean a delay in your comments showing up on the blog. I did this to hopefully better control any possible security compromise to the blog.
While I was changing that I noticed that comments could be ordered differently. I switched it around so that now the most recent comments will be seen first and you won’t have to scroll down past comments you’ve already read. Hope you like that!
Thanks for being such faithful blog readers and sharing favorite posts by clicking on the Share This button and the Facebook Like buttons at the top of the posts. It’s great to know that the Cle Elum Seven could have new friends every day.
Also, while I’m at it – did you notice the new items in the online store? (look to the right under “featured item”.) 2011 Calendars and the Sanctuary Year Two books are now available!

I wanted a hoodie. Will you be getting more?
Yes! I’m working on coordinating that now, actually. It will be a new design, hopefully ready in time for holiday gifts!
i hope Santa brings me year 2 book xxx
Just my two cents, but I preferred the comments being listed from oldest at the top down to the newest at the bottom, the way it was before.
The other way (the way it was before) I only had to scroll down from top to bottom, to read the reply posts in the order that they were made.
This new way, I have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page to start reading the comments in the order that they were made and then I have to scroll all the way back up the page again to get to the most recent reply. It’s alot of extra scrolling (which I don’t need to do when the comments are listed from oldest to newest) and I also find it more confusing when I have to read from the bottom back up to the top. 🙂
“… and I also find it more confusing when I have to read from the bottom back up to the top. 🙂 ”
Especially when the replies to any particular reply post are appearing underneath (like this one) and not on top of the reply post. 🙂
I do really like the “reply within a reply” feature, though! 😀
Thanks for the feedback!
Earlier this week I was wondering when the 2011 calendar would be ready, I can’t wait until I get the calendar and the Year Two book.
Hi Diana,
I agree with Rosyln in Montreal. I also like the blog better when the newest comments are on the bottom. I enjoy reading from the oldest down to the newest and how we all “play” off each other’s comments. It’s sort of hard to do that if you have to start at the bottom and then read back up to the top, and then have to go back down to the bottom to add your own comments.
Just my 2 cents worth as well. Chimp hugs to all and have a great weekend!
Okay, I switched it back. Happy weekend.
