[...] Yet that still requires a considerable knowledge of CSS and PHP. A big help is the very cool Sidebar Modules for K2 I wrote about a few months ago, where you can simply drag-and-drop content elements in your sidebar without having to dive in to any code. It’s very easy to create your own modules to incorporate in your sidebar, as I’ve done here. A far better executed and more elegant solution than WordPress Sidebar Widgets. [...]

Lee, the K2 site is working fine. There are two new locations:

K2 main site - http://getk2.com/
K2 support forum - http://getk2.com/forum/

The original site (shown in the footer on most K2-themed WP blogs) also still worked the last time I looked - http://binarybonsai.com/wordpress/k2/

Re my RSS subscriptions, they’re working fine! Perhaps some little glitch at the moment you clicked on them, or something. Two of the three choices are to FeedBurner feeds and it’s very rare for them not to be working.

Yes, meeting up would be great. We’ll find a way. If you’re planning to be at the IABC conference in Vancouver in June, that would be a good place!

Hi Neville,

I tried to access the K2 site but I reckon it’s either crashed or been taken down for some reason. Do you have the same problem with it (is it just a problem at my end)?

Also, your subscribe buttons are broken (posts, comments, podcasts)

Cheers,
Lee

p.s. here’s hoping we can one day meet up — current business for me precludes any major water-hoping unless someone else is paying for it. But it would be fab to catch a coffee in a trattoria one day and stay for a week… (see http://leehopkins.net/2006/02/17/you-know-youve-made-it-when-you-are-tagged-for-the-four-things-meme/ )

[...] I’m especially interested in this as I’ve been experimenting with Sidebar Modules for K2, the theme that this blog uses on the WordPress platform/application you install on your own server (ie, not the hosted service). After some initial difficulties with it, I’ve now got the modules working fine. These modules work in a similar fashion to the new widgets, ie, Ajax/JavaScript based that you click-and-drag on your screen to position them where you want. (Modules, widgets - what’s in a name?)

Well it seems to be fine. So perhaps yesterday’s issues right after the comment were purely coincidental. And maybe those issues were to do with WP 2.0.1. Whatever the problem was, I’d really like to know.

Let’s leave things as they are for the moment and see how the blog looks tomorrow morning. Hopefully nothing will have fallen over.

[Note to self] Now let’s see. Upgraded to WP 2.0.2. Reinstalled Sidebar Modules again. Working fine. None of the log in issues I had yesterday after installing it nor the PHP error in the sidebar.

This comment is primarily a test to see what happens after I post it. The problems I had yesterday started right after I posted a comment to a post. Let’s see what happens.
