Archive for January, 2010
Dark clouds
.Anyway, this situation is expected to happen as according to our weather agency (BMKG) January and February 2010 is estimated to be the peak of the rainy season. Rain will fall in no time, both the scale of mild, moderate to heavy. Earlier this week the agency also issued warning of lightnings and strong winds during rain in Jakarta and its surrounding areas for the next few days. Residents are to be alert of extreme weather change at least until January 17th. Oh it’s gonna be a challenge to go to the office in the morning!

Thank God It’s Friday! Oh it’s been long since I said those words, lol! Three months on maternity leave have made my Fridays just like another day. But not today. Starting today I’ll look forward to Fridays, knowing that I’m gonna spend time with family after five days of work.
How’s my back to office days so far? Well, I have to say I was lucky because my first day of work was at the same day with others who just came back from their New Year’s holiday. So basically every body in the office was still in “jet lag” between holiday time and working time, including my boss!
There’s not much work for us so far, except checking back what was left from last year. I even can go back early this week, except yesterday. I was stuck in the office until 7pm because of heavy rain.
Enjoy your weekend, I know I will!
The missed schedule errors I got with WordPress 2.9 are already fixed! After skimming through all suggested solutions in the forum, finally I found an easy way to fix the bugs.
I’m still new with WordPress and not very familiar with their codes, except for the CSS file as I often tweaking my theme. So I’m glad that I didn’t have to go through troubles to fix the bugs. All I had to do was upload the patched files for WP 2.9 (it’s in zip format) to my root directory then unzip it. It will copy three files to wp-includes folder. That’s it! All my scheduled posts (including the missed one) are now published!
Missed schedule posts fixed!
Lessons learned: No need to rush to upgrade. Wait for a few weeks then check the forum whether the new update has bugs or not. It’s still ok to upgrade even if it has bugs (there’s always bugs I think) as long as they already have the solution to fix them.
I also took time to test the built-in image editor, which I think it is useful enough! The coolest feature is now I can set which part of the image I want to show using the editor!
For example, if I want to show the “published” part of the above image, I can reopen the image from the gallery and crop it. Voila here’s the result!
Missed schedule posts now published!
The original file is still intact, so I can still restore its original size. If you click on the second image, it will open the same image as the first one. A very cool feature! WordPress Rocks! Though I won’t use it too often since I hardly upload images to my WP. I prefer to use a third party to host my images so I can save my bandwidth and disc space.
I upgraded to WP 2.9 last week and look what I got, a missed schedule post 
. It was my New Year’s greeting and supposed to be published on Jan 01, 2010 at 1:15 pm Indonesian Time! This never happened before, until I upgraded to WP 2.9 off course! I shouldn’t be surprised though as I mentioned in my previous post that they found potential bugs in WP 2.9 that caused scheduled posts and pingbacks not being processed correctly. I guess I got the bugs !
For your information, most of my posts here, as well as on my boy’s blog, were scheduled posts! I set their time to match with Adgitize hour so I won’t have double post on one day or no post at all. With this strategy I can be sure that I won’t miss my Adgitize article point. So scheduled posts are important to me.
When I google “missed schedule wordpress 2.9″ I found many WP users complained about this problem. Luckily I also found some solutions there and I decided to try one of them that was easy enough for me to do. Let’s see if the patch works!
