Today there was a malfunction in one of our servers, that caused some of you to experience problems logging in to Triond. The problem has now been resolved, and you can login again as you always have.

No data, articles or accounts have been lost or compromised, and everything is operating as it should again.

If you’re interested in the technical bits, the reason for this problem was that one of the web servers through which the traffic is routed to the database servers experienced a short network failure and a swift recovery. Therefore it was seen as completely operative by the monitoring components, so traffic was still routed through it, but the database servers saw it as “rogue” and refused to receive connections from it. So if you happened to be routed through this particular server, you received this error.

We apologize for any inconvenience this issue might have caused you, and we hope now that login has been restored you will continue to publish as always.

We just rolled out the newest addition to your profile page – the ability to add a Twitter widget.

It works like the rest of the widgets;  just drag the icon (the big, blue “t”) to the desired location on your page layout. For the widget to work properly, please be sure to add your twitter username by pressing the wrench icon and typing in your twitter username.

Putting the Twitter widget on your profile page will keep visitors to your profile page informed on your real-time activity.

For a demonstration on how to put the Twitter widget on your Triond profile page, watch this video:
