Re: Bronson site problems
It is showing for me https://www.orcaonline.org/bronson-reel ... home-page/. There was a site update for php software, so it may be that you have to close all windows and restart your browser to break cache. Make sure you refresh the window if you get an error.

Re: Bronson site problems
I see you are talking about the page https://www.orcaonline.org/bronson-trad ... -favorite/. Looks like a publishing error on the page, will check into it later today.

Re: Bronson site problems
Matt has indicated it's just bad timing to fix the site this spring. Maybe this summer? Obviously not a priority. In either case, if someone else would like to take over editing the site, just let me know. Maybe someone with more patience than I have, after years of research and thousands of hours by both Robert Ellis and myself. I have dozens of reels to add to the site, which can't be edited right now, but I'll gladly share the info with whoever might take over in the future.

Re: Bronson site problems
Way past my pay grade. I do not understand computers and all the workings, but that being said the trade reels is a wonderful resource that I have definitely missed. Mark I wish someone could step up and fix it or help fix it. I am surprised no one else has brought up this problem. Thanks for all your help Mark.

Re: Bronson site problems

Re: Bronson site problems
The pages are still a work in progress. It is working intermittently now, but I know how to fix it. I just keep getting distracted on other problems.

Re: Bronson site problems
Yes, I know. Can't do any editing either, until this is resolved. Maybe this summer?

Re: Bronson site problems
Matt,
I really don't see anything else broken on our website except the Bronson pages. Sorry if I'm impatient, but it's been quite a while.

Re: Bronson site problems
Just went to the Bronson trade reels page’s, first page still does not show up for me. Is it working for anyone else? Thanks in advance.

Re: Bronson site problems
I deleted site from my desktop and reloaded but still can not access page 1 of trade reels. Wish I could be of help but am technologically embarrassed!
Is anyone attending NFLCC nationals this week?

Re: Bronson site problems
Perhaps you could fix it, then. We're moving into the 4th month with this problem. Anybody want to be the new editor, even though editing is impossible with this existing problem? This is a joke. Thousands of hours editing and researching for what?

Re: Bronson site problems
The Bronson Trade Reels pages are fixed. It was much tougher than I hoped for in the beginning. The issue was that the page 1 was too large given the way the image galleries are managed through all the plugins, and with our somewhat outdated Theme, it was taking too long to render and was timing out. So I had to split the page and thus created four pages, which meant all the page links had to change.
Unfortunately, when copying the pages with the image galleries, some of the galleries did not properly copy over. This may actually be the root of the initial issue, that some of the galleries were corrupt. I had to recreate and reselect the missing galleries by searching and selecting the image files. Unfortunately, they are not named with any consistency and there are duplicates, so it actually took many hours over several days.
We just have to reorganize a bit and improve some things for the future to make these easier to maintain. But the next step is to update our Theme, and then we will look at the entire Reel Research site for a refresh and reorg of content.
For now, lets just close this thread and report any issues you see to me via email. Thanks for all your patience. Its not easy sometimes and we all have many balls to juggle. Just bad timing with all the Nationals and all the other activities in summer fishing.
