[WebPub] Resolved: white pages in Wordpress

[Suzana Lisanti]

Dear Webpub colleagues,

Thank you very much for your helpful suggestions, the white page problem is fixed now. We are pulling information from another server in the footer, and hadn't anticipated adding code to catch slow-downs or the other server not being there.

Details:
The site http://arts.mit.edu pulls information from the MIT events calendar in the footer. Yesterday there were times when we got no response from the events.mit.edu server and as our script tried to parse that result as XML it would trigger a fatal error.  We now added some code to catch this and degrade gracefully.

Thanks again for being a great support network.  And check out the Arts Portal at http://arts.mit.edu!  :-)

Suzana
