Laid-Back Administration: Vanish Articles?

Dr. Beagle C. Cranium
Stroke Survivors Tattler











Well, articles will not “vanish" and they are there but the problem is the labels:

Now (from Google...) there is limit of 20 articles for “Contents of This Week Saturday News:” per week. But we have maximum 30+/- articles per week! For example, display with the label "▷ 2014 Nov 08” they will show only 20 articles.  Before there was no limit but it was weird and inconsistent  i.e. they drop articles #21 or #22 and show #23, #24, ... As well, using the label “⌘ Headline” (maximum 3 or 4 articles per week) or "▶ Weekly Columnists” (max 6) or "▶ Eclectic” (usually it is less 20 articles) have the same problem.  I think the problem is every new page start with a new day (or SSTattler has per week). So they have on the specific day, say have e.g. 22 articles from SSTattler, then display 20 articles, then drop 2 articles, and then they will display the next page, and so on,... (Maybe it is my problem... hmmm... but I don’t think so.)

I think it is relatively easy to fix and I will tell you the Google Solution as soon as possible.

Jury-rig start Jan/31/2015 and beyond:
  1. The main centre column “Saturday News” is OK i.e. they display about 35+/- articles (or approximate 1.5 +/- weeks).
  2. Older articles you can using the label but:
    1. We well drop with the label "▷ 2015 Jan 31” and beyond for "Contents of This Week Saturday News:”. The label is still in the software but you can not use until the Google Solution appeared.
    2. Using the "⌘ Headline" - 3 articles - Saturday News, Definition, Video. Basically, the "Contents of This Week Saturday News:" will show all of indexes of Eclectic, Weekly Columnists, Daily Comics.
    3. Using the "▶ Eclectic" - header Eclectic Stuff + up to 19 articles it is OK. More than 20+ articles will most probably not appear. Try ⌘ Headline with Indexes instead - it does work.
    4. Using the "▶ Weekly Columnists" - Show the header Weekly Columnists and up to 6 articles. But usually they have (6 articles x 4 weeks) modulo 20 ≡ 4 reminder - obvious problem i.e. drop the last 4 articles! Try ⌘ Headline with Indexes instead - it does work.
  3. You can use ▶ Weekly Index / Future (TBD) but, again, use ⌘ Headline to find the desirable article.
