Date bug

Now that Blogger is out of Beta it does seem to be pretty stable. I do like the fact that as the author of this blog, I no longer have to do any word authentication when I respond to a comment here. It used to peeve me slightly – am I going to spam my own blog?!

Having said that things appear to be working well, I’ve noticed that the date for this year’s posts in the Blog Archive listing down the right hand side of the screen is 2006 instead of 2007. This means I have two listings for 2006, and instead of January 2007 everything I’ve written so far this year is listed as December 2006. Not sure how to fix this – I’ve checked my template and settings but can’t see anywhere I can do any tweaking. I notice that this same problem appears on Feral Library Tales too – it’s slightly reassuring that it’s not just me, I suppose.

No time to investigate further this morning – best finish doing all the last minute things (like the dishes and emptying Baubles the Cat’s litter tray) and get ready to go to Sydney. I’m hoping to get online at least once a day (if only to check email) but I’m not sure how much blogging there’ll be over the next few days.

I like what’s advertised for the new features. I was telling a friend I’m even considering migrating one of my wordpress blogs back to blogger! Wish my blogger blogs would be ported over soon. ๐Ÿ™‚

CW,

I had the same problem – the solution is to change the time zone – I changed mine to GMT and the archive function is now correct again. ie December 2006 reverts to the correct January 2007.
I suspect it is something to do with the late adoption of daylight savings by WA.

Ivan, do you not have the option to change to the new version available to you yet?

Wow, thanks for that, Edward! Will do ๐Ÿ™‚
