Archives section working, sort of

The Archives link, which has been broken ever since switching hosts, is now un-broken — which is not to say fixed.

In its previous incarnation, the Archives section could be sorted by category and date, in a variation on the familar Sortable Nicer Archives kludge for WP. (Click here for an example.) However, the database gods must have been angered, for all supplication cannot coax them to offer up their insight. Translation: something got broken, and damn if I can fix it.

So in the spirit of Something is better than Nothing, a click on the Archives section will show you every article in the system, from most recent to oldest. It’s not very user-friendly, but the Googlebots will love it.

The Show by Category buttons, incidentally, still work great. So that’s a better choice if you’re interested in reading just the Q and A’s, for example.

    Fixing the archives temporarily broke the comments, but that seems to be fixed now.

 

About

This site is run by screenwriter John August. Mostly, he answers reader-submitted questions about the craft, but occasionally he goes on tangents that run far afield of writing and filmmaking. You'll also find info on past, present and future projects.


For photos, blurbs and uncomfortable self-promotion, you can check out his Facebook fan page.

If you have a question about screenwriting or my movies that hasn't been answered, by all means ask. There are a few guidelines to follow.
