   Yesterday I noticed that for the first time ever, my customized date (which includes day of the week and time) was showing in my Vigilance theme. It never has before, and I did nothing intentionally to change it. It was long (set up for some prior theme), but looked okay at the top of my posts (eg, Wednesday, March 10, 2010, 1:30 pm). However, when I clicked on a category to get a list of older posts, instead of each entry being on a single line (as before), the dateline was breaking into 3-6 lines for each post. I've shortened the date format to just "March 10, 2010" which is all that showed before. However, this still breaks into 3 lines when I look at a list of older entries. Can't figure out what's happening. Clearing the cache last night didn't help. I use Firefox but the display is the same in IE. I did nothing that I'm aware of that might have precipitated these changes. Has someone been tinkering with the Vigilance theme behind the scenes?

   The blog I need help with is piedtype.com.

   I see the same thing happening on my blog which is also using Vigilance. It's my wild guess that the answer to your question is "yes" Staff are working behind the scenes. And, this do not want! do not like! change has nothing to do with browsers or anything that you or I or the other users of this theme have done.

   Thanks, timethief. Good to know I'm not alone in my frustration. Hope they get it fixed soon. Makes me crazy having something wonky on my blog that I can't fix.

    Did the clear cache and cookies logout login dance 3 times. I'm seeing 2010 entries rectified but not all of the 2009 entries rectified - weird.
