I have a different issue with the Metamor Keep Archive.

It appears that a lot of the stories are showing various special characters as diamonds with "?" inside them. This is extremely off-putting and renders stories difficult to read. I suspect some of them are quote characters, en-dashes, and so forth. This is showing up with both FireFox and Safari. It is especially bad in my story Inchoate Carillon, Inconstant Cuckold.

Somebody definitely ought to take a look into that! It wasn't at all like this two weeks ago the last time I checked.

May He bless you and keep you in His grace and love,

Hello!

Yes, that was merely a google custom search page. I'm sure the syntax has changed throughout the years. It looks like the service is still offered, so it's probably just a matter of setting up a new one. <https://cse.google.com/cse/>https://cse.google.com/cse/

Regarding the domain, I do own and pay for <http://metamorkeep.com>metamorkeep.com. This is no big deal since it is a pittance, however if someone else more active in the community would like to take up ownership, I certainly wouldn't have any problem with that (I have like seven of these things anyway). Whoever takes it would have to promise to be super attentive and pay the bill on time to avoid a <http://transform.to>transform.to situation though. ;)

Somewhat related--I actually have the domain pointing to my nameservers before it goes to Xepher. This gives us a little more control in case people have their own sites or blogs and want to use a subdomain or something. E.g. <http://mishablogsaboutmuffins.metamorkeep.com>mishablogsaboutmuffins.metamorkeep.com

The second problem is that the search feature provided by Google has stopped working. I haven't been able to figure this one out. At first glance, it appears there is a lot of stuff in the search URL that shouldn't be there, but even after deleting it and trying to manually rerun it, the error persists. In that case, the reason it failed might be that the account that the search feature was tied to has been deleted, but this is all conjecture as I am totally unfamiliar with how Google's custom search feature works.Â

It might be worth it to ask Virmir about this one as he set it up and might remember how to do it again.Â

P.S. I find it funny that both Chris and my test searches were related as we both searched for or respective species.Â

I'm getting access to it and everything. It may have been a slight hiccup in the server engine. I'll still look into it and see what might be the problem, but it appears that whatever was happening was simply a connection error.
