Thank you. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version. So far, no problems. I'll post again if anything comes up.

Actually, I spoke too soon. After a short time of using Firefox with Aardvark disabled, Feedly mini vanished again. So -- the problem is not solved yet.

Well, I find this pretty mystifying, since I can't duplicate it on my other computer, but it appears that I am seeing a conflict between the extension Aardvark (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire...) and Feedly. When I disabled Aardvark, Feedly mini returned. As I say, I have almost the same configuration on another computer and don't see the conflict, so I don't know what to say, but there you go. Too bad -- I like Aardvark, but I'll manage without it. I'm going to try uninstalling the Aardvark extension and then reinstalling the most recent version.

I'm just seeing this now. I'll check it out later tonight. Thank you. – nbr, on October 20, 2009 18:37

Can you remind me of how to get to the mini preferences section? Previously I only ever reached it via the icon in Feedly mini itself, and I don't see a link from the regular preferences screen. (On the regular preferences screen, I only see choices to enable mini -- which is selected of course -- and an exclude list.)

Help! Feedly mini has disappeared!

I don't think I've changed any configuration settings recently. Feedly mini is no longer appearing for me on any pages as of a few days ago. I'm using FF 3.5.3 with the following extensions: Diigo, Iterasi, Greasemonkey, Amplify, and Feedly. None of these extensions has had a major update recently, as far as I know, and none of them had compatibility problems that i was aware of.

I don't have any good hunches on this one. Has anyone else seen this?

Update: it looks like it's working now. I'm not getting confirmations back when I check in via SMS or email though. I don't know if that's a bug or if that's just how the new version works. Anyhow, if you fixed it, thanks. If it fixed itself, then, well, I'm glad.

Thanks for the quick response. I'll do that now.

Mobile updated from Verizon Wireless aren't working (again)

Some time ago (there's a lot of posts on this) Brightkite had trouble with mobile updates coming from Verizon Wireless phones, both SMS and email. I've had no trouble with this for probably a year, but since the recent update, I can't update from my mobile phone any more. I've tried sending both SMS (to 41414) and email (to my personal email address) from my phone, and I get no response from Brightkite.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

nbr asked a question in Feedly on October 11, 2009 20:14:

Control key hides Feedly mini search-results box -- can it be unhidden?

I've noticed that when I'm on a search-results page where the Feedly Mini search results box is activated, the box will vanish when I hit the control key. I assume this is intentional (though I don't know). I'd like to suggest that you make this option user-configurable (i.e., make it possible for me to turn it off). I control-click a lot to open tabs in new windows. This means that often I inadvertently hide the results box.

Also, I don't know how to make it reappear -- is it possible to force it to open? Reloading the page doesn't seem to bring it back.

Anyone know anything about Yola (formerly Synthasite)? I've heard good things about them, but nothing very specific. They provide a similar service.

Mine's down too.

Make Feedly Mini invisible in print

I can't see any reason why I'd want Feedly Mini showing up on a printed page. Is there some way to include some medium:print CSS to make it vanish when I print out a webpage? Or does anyone know a Greasemonkey hack to take care of this? It seems like it ought to be pretty simple.

My site, http://nathanrein.com, is loading only intermittently. I bought the domain through Weebly.

And an update: it's also working for me with imeem.com and MySpace.

Ah ... now that is highly useful information. If that's on the site somewhere, I totally missed it. – nbr, on September 22, 2009 03:34
