Error reporting on the Blogger dashboard

In a previous post I noted that the tool tip associated with the Select all posts check box reads Select all comments instead (tsk, tsk).


The Blogger interface has a Send feedback button (circled) which I assume is for this sort of thing. Clicking it brings up a pop-up box that automatically grabs a screen shot of the page.


Unfortunately you can't have the tool tip up and select the Send Feedback option at the same time. But I can point to what I mean by selecting Click to highlight or hide info in the middle of the screengrab.


After which you can use the highlight tools to mark the issue you have or block out any sensitive information that you think Google doesn't already have.


The tool is quite nice as it will automatically select a feature if you hover over it and you can draw as many rectangles as required. Each rectangle can be deleted by hovering over it and clicking the X that appears in the top right hand corner.

Once you have marked up the problem and added a note just click SEND.


You get a tiny Thank you for the feedback pop-up and that's it.


Don't know if they will send a response, if they will do anything about it, or even if anyone looks at them. Let's wait and see and check in a month's time.

UPDATE
The new Blogger interface was updated about a year after I sent in this comment and the error was fixed on the new interface that was rolled out from May 2020.

Grocy and its Home Assistant Add-on

The next layer of the Virtual Bean Counter software stack is the meat in the sandwich, Grocy (see Grocy system install ). As with the Home Assistant (HA) Operating System that was reviewed previously the aim of this article is to consider the support and backup options for the Grocy system as installed onto our HA virtual machine . But first a little history. Whither Grocy ? It sprang from the desire of a software developer, Bernd Bestel , to progress beyond using Excel (as we know a great spreadsheet and data analysis tool but with a limited UI) to something more fully featured by exploiting his experience with commercial inventory management. The first version of Grocy was released in 2017 and after seven years is now on its fourth full point release . However, unlike HA, it is essentially a one-man band with a single developer responsible for pretty much the entirety of the content all without stable funding (currently). That said the package is quite mature and " does wha...

Further adventures in household paper products

As the toilet rolls are up and running I couldn't resist adding the rest of the loft stocks into the mix. The next two items are kitchen roll and facial tissues . Following the same process described for toilet rolls; kitchen roll comes in a multipack, but this time a case has four packs of three rolls and we already have the storage location, shop and quantity units set up. Again, I think we'll have to set up a generic item (Parent product) as well as a specific one for the Kirkland brand rolls (Child product). So I gave it a name, Kitchen roll and a description; default storage location and shop, Loft / Costco ; a min stock amount, 3 rolls ; all the quantity units are Roll . Job done. Now for the specific product, as previously, pulling images and descriptions off the Costco website, setting up case and pack barcodes and quantity conversions between them, buying in Cases and using in Packs . But hang on, do we really want to track in packs of three? We only need a sin...

Man Down! - HA-Grocy goes off the rails

Problems, problems. As part of an HA-Grocy update to v0.24.0, released on the 16 th Feb 2025, a point version upgrade of Grocy was included from v4.3.0 to v4.4.1. Unfortunately it was found that the update had dismasted parts of the HA-Grocy app (see 1 / 2 ), preventing users from opening pop-up windows in the Grocy iframe ; for instance, when clicking the " Add " button in tasks no action is taken. The root cause was a bug in the Grocy version released on the 31 st January (v4.4.1). Although to be fair, Grocy is not specifically aimed at supporting Home Assistant (HA) and as a standalone installation the Grocy program continued to function normally. Happily, the bug was patched by Bernd in v4.4.2, released on 28 th Feb. Unhappily, the HA-Grocy Add-on is still missing the patch as of the 20 th June. So if you are installing from the Add-on Store in Home Assistant it simply won't be fully functional (this is tested and confirmed). If you've already install...
