They have been down for several days! I have attempted to make corrections, add a wiki for this quarter, etc, to no avail! We will have to be patient!

>1 Tess_W: Ah! I’ve been trying to add The White Ship (by Charles Spencer) to the quarterly Wiki for a couple of days now and have been getting a request to merge message. I couldn’t figure it out so I decided to wait until the weekend. Glad to know it wasn’t me! 😅

You may want to follow this thread: https://www.librarything.com/topic/365080
as it discusses the current issues with the site, including the wiki problems.

>3 gilroy: TY! Changes have been saved,,,,,,,,,,,,,BUT we are missing an entire page---woof-just gone! Never know if it was me or "something" else!

Ok...a page "current quarterly reads" has disappeared. It could have been me.......but I've heard of other posts in other groups disappearing..........

I can edit a page in wiki, but I don't know how to create a page. Anybody out there can re-add a page for me?

>5 Tess_W: I just tried to put in the Current History Period (Middles Ages Plus Vikings) and while it looked great in the preview, it would not "take". :-(

>6 Tanya-dogearedcopy: Hmmm, ok. Well, I made a couple of changes, but it took 24 hours for them to take effect. We'll see how it looks tomorrow! Someday, I would like to get instructions from you (because there is something I'm "Missing" from the written ones.)

Thanks to all! The edit is there now, took about 24 hours! It's working! TY to all who "helped." There are still super slow processing times for some things (24-48 hours)

>9 Tess_W: Sorry that I couldn't truly help this time around; but you have given me an idea: Once the LT Wikis have settled down, I'll put together a video tutorial and share. This might be a good Thanksgiving project for me to tackle!

>10 Tanya-dogearedcopy: That would be wonderful! I don't really know how to do anything......I'm just cutting and pasting from whomever set it up initially!

>10 Tanya-dogearedcopy: & >11 Tess_W: I whole heartedly second the idea of an tutorial on the Wikis as I also mostly just cut and paste the Monthly Challenge Wiki as well.
