Last Wednesday’s RoyaltyNow! has been uploaded once again. Hopefully there are no sound problems. If so, please let me know. Thanks, everyone! :)

During an upgrade, August Annotations went down and did not get back online until now (9:55pm). I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

I wanted to make a note that I’ve changed the category names around. Under “Monarchies”, you will now find each royal house titled “British Royalty”, “Japanese Royalty”, etc. It seemed more organized that way. If it has caused any hiccups in your bookmarks, I do apologize.

Two posts had to be deleted. They seemed to be causing the blog to slow down, and because of that, the side bar’s categories disappeared as if they couldn’t load.

I think it was due to the images. One was the Queen at Ascot, and the other was Camilla during Trooping the Colo(u)r, and for some reason those were the culprits for the lag-time. Usually photos from PicApp.com are not like that.

I apologize for the inconvenience!

UPDATES

• The Queen’s biography page is missing. I am going to upload it again sometime later today.
• My Royal Memoriam page was complete and up-to-date until I transferred “MBR” to a new server. I still need to complete that, so look for that to be back soon!

Apparently PodcastPeople.com is having some technical difficulties, so the Nepali elections discussion and the Majesty magazine review for April is on hold. I will let you know when things are posted. :) Thank you!

Once in while I like to check on the blog, just in passing, to see if all is well. Usually it is. Lately, however, things have been mighty wierd, and it all seems to stem from Flickr. Perhaps some of you Flickr-literate people can help me sort this out?

Once upon a time, Long Ago, It was a dark and stormy night, etc., I wanted to log in to the blog, but found that I couldn’t do it. Spread out before me was a “Page not found” error, and it was directly from Flickr. Yet it was was my blog’s address! What was happening?

My main website was ok, but this Flickr error page coming from the blog’s address is a complete mystery. All I did was update WordPress with its latest version via FTP.

So I remove Flickr badge from said blog. I thought that might be the cause. No such luck, so I decided to wait and see what would happen. The blog eventually returned to normal, so I thought I was safe.

The next thing I know, the error page is back again. What to do? My fiance said that because my Flickr pictures badge is on the main website, that may have something to do with it. There may be some sort of error somewhere, and the Flickr error page just happens to be the first error page that you get sent to. It is overriding my personalized error page from CPanel.

Huh?

So if any of you out there know what to do, please let me know. For the time being, I’m afraid I will have to get rid of the Flickr badge on the site. You can still access the photos by going to Flickr and searching for me (MandysRoyalty).

So I am getting the feeling that I will have to perform an exorcism soon, and thus Flickr will be no more.
