Those with an attention to detail will probably notice I've been messing with the entry page the last few days. Hopefully people like my "improvements" (I suppose it's all relative). I bumped u...

I've heard a number of complaints about the sort order of books, particularly from those who have created a 2014 book that always appears under their 2013 book. Well, never fear! I've got an an...

4,000 users! Woo hoo! When we reach 5,000 we'll have to have a virtual parade! Good times, Prosebox. Good times.

---

Now there's only one save button, and if you want to save your entry as a draft you'll have to check the box. I assume that most people just want to post their entries directly, so that seems li...

My fellow Proseboxicans, (apparently Proseboxican is not actually a word) If you had suggested to me one year ago that I would, one year from then, have a successful website collecting most of ...

---

I will be taking Prosebox down momentarily to add a little bit of extra muscle to the server. I want to stay ahead of the growth curve. :) Don't worry, it shouldn't take long (that's the joy o...

---

Worth mentioning since I see a whole lot of new people (wave)... One thing that is on my to-do list but I haven't got around to yet is letting you backdate entries. Also, the subject of importi...

Oh my, the internet is all ablaze today! Or, at least, our tiny corner of it. OD is shutting down! Wow. I have history there. It's worthy of an entry at some point. Meanwhile, looks like th...

---

It's been suggested to me that the Friend Of lists can be a potential source of drama. And so, in the spirit of drama reduction, I've added a setting "Hide me from friend lists". If you check t...

This is a little feature that's been in the back of my mind for some time now. I think you'll like it. Visit any user's profile page, and at the bottom you can check out the recent comment hist...

---

I decided while I was messing with the entry page to also move the author info into the entry panel, seems like a better use of space. I also think I like the word "Follow" better than "Bookmark...

---

I've heard complaints about the entry page being totally boxed in. And I understand. I think it could cause claustrophobia on a larger display. So I moved the floating nav bar under the menu o...

---

Yay, Prosebox on a new server! OK, so there's probably nothing for you to be terribly excited about (other than the site coming back up), but it's pretty cool on my end. There's a pretty good c...

---

Prosebox will be going down in about 15 minutes for some uber-maintenance. I'm actually moving it to another server. So, you know, wish me luck. I've heard these server moves can be CRAZY.

---

I've had complaints by a couple of people about getting application errors when trying to post long entries. I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm suspicious of the new stuff I just added. So I...

---

UPDATE: Database upgrade appears to have gone well. Carry on. :)

---

I was tinkering around with Markdown a bit, adding a few extensions that looked useful. Hopefully they are all good additions. There will be a few Tips and Tricks entries to show off the new fu...

---

The "autosave" still has its flaws and is not a guarantee. Specifically if: You lose your session (not sure why this happens - doesn't seem to happen to many people) The site goes down before ...

---

(in case you are curious: no, I wouldn't normally be working on the site on Christmas Eve - but I'm stuck in the office for a few hours due to lack of vacation time, and there's really not much f...

---

Some of the common criticism I hear from Prosebox detractors is, "Oh, it's too drab. It's too white. It's too clinical." Muahahaha, welcome to my anti-bacterial laboratory!! Well, I decided i...

---

So many of you have already dropped by to mention the bookmarks update, which lets you see what you've read and what you haven't. It was a much requested feature and I'm happy to have that avail...

---

OK, I must admit that I'm pretty excited about this one... Prosebox entry and book forms now have autosave! YES! I removed the little warning box that pops up if you accidentally leave the pag...

---

I just discovered and fixed a bug where the book title wasn't updating on the entry page if you moved it from one book to another, or changed the name of the book. Everything should be back in s...

---

Hey, these milestones need to be pointed out. :)

---

It's not at the top of the page, nor at the bottom. It's simply there, everywhere. I won't go into detail, hopefully it's intuitive enough to figure out without a lengthy explanation. :) Edit...
