Happy Friday, Sailers! How is your Pause going? Need some weekend music?

Recently, we had some nice changes deployed which I think you'll like, so let's jump into them!

Bad Company (among reported posts)

There are new entry points to the Reported Queue now. The Admin Dashboard and bottom toolbar both have links to reach the queue. This will help mods+ to use the feature more often (or realize it exists for the first time). Thank you to Mira Laime for that joke. Go listen to Bad Company, the hit single on the record Bad Company, by the band Bad Company.

Time is on my side, yes it is (and on your tooltips)

Discussions and Message Walls now have actual date and timestamps on hover, rather than "3 days ago" as it stands now. Please go listen to some Rolling Stones this weekend.

The files are alright (and can be uploaded again)

The extension TimedMediaHandler has been installed on the UCP, resolving a number of file support issues, including the re-enabling of ogg file uploading. Cheap Trick is another band I recommend for this weekend.

Pre tags

Use of the pre element in CSS styling will no longer cause editor display issues. This is one of the major fixes mentioned in the migration pause mitigation plan.

Template Editing

Templates no longer open in visual editor if you have your editor preference set to source editor, as intended.

Source editor background

The source editor now has a solid background, reducing legibility issues on communities with "busy" custom backgrounds.

Get back to where you once belonged (on the mobile site)

If you're on a mobile device and use the link to view the desktop site, we give you a similar link to return to the mobile site, if you so choose. If you don't understand the reference in this section title, please spend your weekend listening to the entire Beatles catalog.

You're never alone (with image sharing)

EN wikis migrated to the UCP which share images from a non-EN wiki will now have those images display correctly. Again, Bad Company. Very underrated band with some absolutely incredible songs.

Highway (to deeplinking) Star

You can now copy a deeplink to any comment or comment reply on the UCP. Go listen to some songs from Deep Purple this weekend. See? There's the deep link to deeplinking. It was a very deep joke about deepness.

Band on the Run (with their mobile devices)

The issue that caused select pages to throw errors on mobile has been resolved. Wings is also a good band with some great songs, especially if you dig the Beatles.

Upcoming

Social Activity and 2010 Editor development are going well :)
