    ok.... I woke up and my blog was down. I think it has to do with ID. Done with it.

    Randy, what do you mean exactly by your blog being down? We have had no down time. Was there an extended load time? Please let me know. Again, the plugin is in the beta stages, so we'd love to know about any bugs that you encounter so that we can improve it.

    Thanks!

    Hi Michael. The htaccess file went kablooey and the whole site went down with a 403 forbidden access error. I had to call my host and they had to rename the file. Since ID was the only one doing anything along those lines I assume that it was the import process that left something running that eventually corrupted the file.

    Of course, I know only enough to make dangerous assumptions so ... am I wrong?

    All I know is that the problems kept multiplying like before and my readers (along with myself) get frustrated. I am also losing comments in the back and forth. I want to be of help but ... I don't want all the problems either.

    My hope is that you all can get this worked out because I love your parent company. Let me know how I can help without crashing my blog :).

    That's very strange Randy. We don’t touch the .htaccess file. We might generate a little bit of load during the import, but it's not anything significant or severe.

    While I don't really know what happened exactly, it's extremely unlikely that ID was responsible for the issues with the .htaccess file as we never use it or touch it.

    hmmm...

    Well, I am not sure what to say. Did you find out about the other issues I reported?

    Thanks for following up.
