[08:17] <t0mb0> krytarik, so for the favicon, my feeling here is that the data for the favicon actually lived on disk before we came up with wordpress object storage plugin.
[08:17] <t0mb0> You can actually upload whatever favicon you like here https://www.ubuntu-news.org/wp-admin/customize.php?return=%2Fwp-admin%2Fthemes.php%3Fpage%3Dthematic_opt
[08:18] <t0mb0> are you able to try that and let me know if it still doesn't work?
[08:22] <t0mb0> krytarik, also I think I fixed the top menu!
[08:22] <t0mb0> looks like some of the theme customisations didn't carry across
[08:26] <t0mb0> guiverc, cc
[08:26] <t0mb0> guess I can add "fullstack" developer to my resume now :P
[08:33] <t0mb0> krytarik, guiverc - I plan on destroying the obsolete blog environment. Would you like a copy of the legacy codebase and data for posterity?
[08:35] <guiverc> t0mb0, I'd not understand it, but thanks; I'd wait for krytarik to answer though
[08:35] <t0mb0> ack
[08:37] <guiverc> fyi:  I can't login to ubuntu-news.org  (I've never tried before to my knowledge though; I post via fridge.ubuntu.com) ; "You need a higher level of permission"
[08:38] <t0mb0> guiverc, hmm
[08:38] <t0mb0> can you login via fridge.u.c?
[08:39] <t0mb0> I'd say it's the identity manager RP configs
[08:39] <t0mb0> hmm actually, it could be a number of things
[08:39] <t0mb0> some of which may require additional updates to the charm :'(
[08:39] <guiverc> hold on... fridge yep (post there almost weekly)
[08:40] <t0mb0> I've run out of bandwidth on this I think but you're welcome to raise an RT for an SRE to look into in the future
[08:40] <t0mb0> (given that fridge.u.c still works)
[08:41] <guiverc> nope sorry t0mb0, I tried again and I'm in this time...  I must have done something wrong..
[08:41] <guiverc> Apologies t0mb0
[08:41] <t0mb0> heh all good!
[08:41] <guiverc> Thanks for your work & effort t0mb0
[08:42]  * guiverc wishes I'd not logged into ubuntu-news... lots of spam cause I guess no-one logs in there
[08:42] <t0mb0> oh hang on! I just realised you mentioned the favicon was on /feed and /wp-admin... hmmm
[08:42] <t0mb0> let me do some more poking
[08:43]  * guiverc is out on both
[08:48] <t0mb0> oh wow the favicon is actually embedded in the vcs
[08:48] <t0mb0> loool
[08:51] <t0mb0> of which we're returning a 404 for it, hopefully this is an ez config fix!
[10:57] <t0mb0> okay krytarik I've tracked down why the icon isn't working. The themes actually don't register any head hooks to inject common include bits inside <head>..</head>
[10:58] <t0mb0> the reason it was working is because wordpress has a default handler for $URI/favicon.ico which just returns the URL for what it has stored in the db. This bit of data went missing, likely for the reason reason the other theme bits went missing.
[10:58] <t0mb0> I'd chalk it up to db schema changes
[10:58] <t0mb0> anyway to fix it, I just re-uploaded the favicon.ico from the theme repository and now I'm seeing favicon.ico under /feed
[10:58] <t0mb0> and /admin
[11:01] <guiverc> :)

[17:36] <krytarik> t0mb0: Yeah, indeed I'm now also seeing all of the header links, the favicon on the feed, as well as in the WP admin area - so thanks for all your effort!  But I can't really make anything of the old blog stuff you asked about either.. :P  However, if it doesn't pertain to the actual content, then I believe you can just do away with it. :)
