Has it started? I only ask because the Alabaster front page still shows yesterday's Quote, but there's a new one on Pliny.

Yes, we're in process Geggs. We've got to tailor things together somewhat.
Don't forget - everyone is welcome to submit a quote for this feature. Try to send in quotes from conversations that are good reading, maybe from people who don't usually get quoted. We want to make everyone feel included!
Good quotes should be pithy, pertinent and if they are also witty, so much the better. If there is just part of a very long post that you'd like to suggest, then indicate the sentence you think is suitable. Long paragraphs can then be read by the accompanying link.
There is so much stuff to read, in Ask, in journals and in conversations attached to Entries that it's impossible for one person to read it all. The quote feature is like a signpost to good conversations - and we need more people to send in suggestions please.

Could you perhaps put a tombstone or a re-divert on the defunct front pages? Or at least a line at the top, warning that they're no longer being updated?

"paulh, you can always report it as a bug, if you're so inclined." [Happy Nerd]
it's worked fine five times in a row, so it no longer seems to be a bug.

Thank you peanut! I really appreciate that.
It took some team work, but great team work. Thanks to all who helped.

Oooh, yes. I hadn't thought of that. It's much better than just leaving it as the last page, frozen in time. This one is still useful!

Will the "Most Recently Updated" and most popular convos
lists be frozen as they are? Like forever and forever.

Content which is automatically updated should continue to be updated automatically. Only the manual updates have stopped.

The Updated links had been broken since before we took over from the BBC - we have no way of changing them, although we do feature them on the new Front Page.
