Over the weekend I upgraded WordPress on this site and there was a small but critical change I didn\u2019t know about: It changed the way it handled file path names, and that meant that all my audio and video files were no longer available.<\/p>\n

As of this posting, I\u2019ve restored access to all files going back to the Pride 48 live episode posted the end of June, so all episodes from then on (July and August) are again available. I\u2019ll get the rest sorted out, too, but it\u2019ll take time because I have to fix it one episode at a time.<\/p>\n

What happened is that before the upgrade there was a drop-down menu for my audio files so I could simply select them. After the upgrade, that drop-down menu was gone and WordPress couldn\u2019t find the files anymore.<\/p>\n

So, I have to go in and add the complete web address for each file\u2014easy enough to do, but it takes time. Actually, it\u2019s not that easy: For older episodes I\u2019ll have to check on the server to find out what the filename actually is, and that\u2019ll take a little while longer.<\/p>\n

2Political didn\u2019t have this problem when I upgraded it because it never had the drop-down menu: I always had to enter the location of the files.<\/p>\n

Oh, and one other thing: I realised I REALLY need to make a custom \u201c404\u201d page\u2014the standard one is ugly.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"reddit\"<\/a>\"pinterest\"<\/a>\"linkedin\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
