Squidoo Bugs or Bugs?
Hey I was bored the day I made this lens..... ok, so it was really a very, very, late night! LOL This lens was originally created as a place to keep track of all those pesky nasty Squidbugs. I figured it would be easier to include a link to this lens when submitting a bug report, so the Squidoo Tech Dudes and Dudettes, oops I mean Squids and Squidettes, could see print screens of the glitches I run into. I figured it was easier to show it than explain it!
Update, so I decided to change this lens and make it about bugs. Never you mind, it's my lens and I can do what I want with it! LOL


What's On Here
What Bugs You?
Ok, so I don't really do much with this lens anymore, so thought I would see if I could find out what People's Pet Peeves are. I added two to get us started. Hey, work with me here! LOL

Lenses Drop Down Menu (Joining Group and Lensrolling)
Oct 28, 2007
Would it be possible to make the drop down menu wider for both Joining a Group and Lensrolling, the same width as the Dashboard Stats drop down menu? For myself, I have several that the URL starts the same, so it is difficult to choose which lens I want as I can't see enough of the lens name.
I have had to start making the URL's different for my different series of lenses; using dashes in the name and capitals to help distinguish which are which.
Also, would it be possible to please put the list of lenses in the drop down menu in alphabetical order? For those of us with many lenses it is sometimes very hard to locate them and each seem to sort in a different manner which again makes it confusing.

Editing Lenses
Oct 22, 2007
Case: 16971
Status: Resolved
In My Dashboard
I click on the "Edit" link
I get the following pop up box

I click "Cancel"
I get the following message on the next browser screen:
URL in Address Bar was
http://octosquid.squidoo.com:1000/lensmaster/workshop/my-squidoo-tips4
401 Authorization Required error message was as follows:
Authorization Required
This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser doesn't understand how to supply the credentials required.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat) Server at octosquid.squidoo.com Port 1000
I did find a way around this. I go to the lens page itself, and click edit from the actual lens page, rather than through My Dashboard.
Leaving Guestbook Entries
October 20, 2007 - Updated October 24, 2007
Case: 16925, 16926 and 17033
Status: Not Repaired
Affects: Squidbids, Squidvids, Squidwho lenses
It does not affect regular Squidoo lenses
As you can see (below), there is no box to enter/type the security word provided, so I am unable to leave a guestbook entry.

Update: Oct 24/07 - I found a way around this.
From inside the Guestbook module, the part where we type our actual comments in the "Your Blurb" box, if you click the "tab" key, the box to enter the security word now appears, (the screen stretches) now over to the right. See below.
