Issues Needing Fixing

I tried to submit this new request with screen prints about a BROKEN LINK when clicking on Latest Posts on Main page.

NOTE #1: THIS LINK WORKS ON AN iPhone, BUT NOT ON an MS Surface laptop with Windows 10. Please do application testing on multiple platforms to confirm future updates.

NOTE #2: Also, your PASTE function does not work inside this text box. After I paste a screen print and click on the I AGREE button, I get this message: Don't encode images in the post.

EC: Thank you, Wendy! Fixed so the link works. The home page desktop and home page mobile are two different files which is why the mobile worked.

Note: We removed the image uploader ability last month because it was being abused and is not really necessary for EC posts.

Hi Marta,

Thanks for pointing this out. Yes, sorry, there is a page but we forgot to add .html at the end of it in 2015 when we created the question page so it led to a 404 page not found error message.

Fixed! Here is the URL and perhaps some readers will contribute more remedies for you!

Hi earthclinic

Firstly thank you for carrying on Ted's wonderful treatments.

I looked up chondrodermatits nodularis helics which had one mention but then it said 'page not found'.....please can you guide me to any remedies you may have?

Many thanks

Colloidal Gold

Posted by Debbie (TX) on 07/26/2022

When will Colloidal Gold be back in stock?

EC: Hi Debbie,

We're still unpacking from our CT to NC move, so probably in another few days. You can still buy Earth Clinic CG and CS on Amazon. There are 16 oz colloidal gold and 4 oz double potency colloidal gold bottles in Amazon's stock.

We expect to be up and running next week and will reopen the online shop.

Thanks for asking!

Thanks… I don't have an account. That explains why….

Hi EC: whenever I submit a post on your site it's always difficult to find my response if I don't remember to check ASAP. Is there any shortcut to locate my response if it's a few days later? Please advise.. thanks

EC: Hi Lauren,

When you login into your account, you'll find 2 sections with your posts and links to all your posts.. one is Feedback and the other is Q&A. Otherwise, yes, impossible to find if you don't have an account set up.

Where will I find Art's recent article on melatonin? I didn't get it by email....

EC: https://www.earthclinic.com/supplements/how-to-increase-melatonin-naturally.html

Adding it to the home page of Earth Clinic now too.

Hi Patrice,

Yes, agreed. On the list for a while so thanks for the nudge. We'll put the line of links back at the top banner area for desktop computers very soon!

Thank you so much, Hannah. Our programmer fixed it and asked if you would please refresh the url. Should work now!

When use your search feature on my phone (upper left hand side), it acts like nothing is happening regardless of what I search for. Just thought you should know. Thanks

For years I've gone on EC site, hit the menu to click on the alpha menu and scrolled down to whatever problem I was looking to remedy with others helpful suggestions. Now I can't figure out what the heck you've done and your redesigned page is a mess and no longer user friendly…what a pity! Guess it's goodbye to what used to be a great holistic helpful site…now it's totally foreign.

Habitat

Hello everyone and happy Friday!

We mentioned this months ago, but we've been so busy with other EC projects, our habitat section has been progressing rather slowly. However, the section is now live with a few new articles and our mission statement.

Here are the first 3 articles to show you how this new section is going to look. We will expand it to not just wildlife, but trees, plants, flowers, and even probably fungi eventually! We want to provide beneficial information about how to help each species best, starting with your backyard.

https://www.earthclinic.com/habitat/birds/what-do-robins-eat.html

https://www.earthclinic.com/habitat/wildlife/remove-pesticides-from-plants.html

https://www.earthclinic.com/habitat/butterflies/attract-butterflies-to-your-garden.html

If you have any helpful tips on making life better for a particular species and would like to publish an article in our new Habitat section, we would LOVE and APPRECIATE your help!

Or you can send us a short little post about how you go about helping one of the 8.5 million species on this planet and we'll then write an article to go along with it to create a new page, just as we have for the 800+ ailments on Earth Clinic.

We hope you are as excited about this new section as we are!

Mobile users:

If you are mobile and want to see the desktop version, scroll down the menu and click on View Full Version. That will also show you the full posts on the recent posts page rather than just the titles.

Hi Sabita,

Thanks for your input. They are appreciated!

Can you please provide a few more details?

1. You are referring to our mobile phone design, correct? It has a different layout than desktop computers.

2. On mobile, are you referring to the Recent Posts page or the Ailments index section, which lists medical conditions by letter?

Please let us know what you'd like to see to make it more user-friendly and I'll discuss with our programmer. Thank you!

P.S. If anyone else has design requests or finds anything difficult to navigate, please chime in.

I liked when posts were able to be seen and not having to click on titles...this goes for all categories where applicable. I find it less user friendly.

I like both logos very much and they would certainly look very nice on merch such as caps, T-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies as a way to help support Earth Clinic!

EC: Thank you so much, Art! Glad you like them!

Worked on this the past two days with the programmer and we're very happy to report the issue is finally fixed! What a relief! That one was tricky!

I have frequently been rerouted to an add that takes up the entire page when clicking on links. is this specifically a google issue?

EC: Hi Diane and anyone else experiencing this issue,

So sorry about this.

We are working to fix this issue and contacted Google a couple of days ago about it as well since none of our current fixes are working. It is only an issue for Safari browser users on desktop computers. If you have another browser on your computer like Firefox, try that one... you won't have an issue. We'll keep working on it until it gets figured out.

Apologies again!

Good morning!

Earth Clinic is starting a new environmental site called HABITAT by Earth Clinic, which we are very excited about and think you will be too. Please help us choose a winning logo by marking a 5 star by any logo that you LOVE. This logo contest ends tomorrow, so you can check new designs later in the day. Thank you so much!

Latest Posts, Latest Answers

Hi Everyone,

As you may have noticed, pages on Earth Clinic can take a very long time to load. Today we figured out, after the site was running particularly slowly, that we have too many databases pointing at the Recent Posts page, which is slowing the entire site down (answers.earthclinic.com and ted.earthclinic.com). To fix this, our fabulous programmer has separated all the Latest Posts sections.

Please make sure to click on Recent Answers because that's where all the new Q&A posts will be. We have 16 new replies from our newsletter just in the past couple of hours in that new section instead of in the Latest Posts section. Sorry that you have to click on another section to read posts, but now the site loads much faster!

You can find the links on the far left corner for desktop computer users under "Recent Activity".

Yes, I am having problems with Google ad as well. Very frustrating.

EC: We may have fixed it last night. Please try again.

Hi Susan,

Thank you for the feedback. We have received a bunch of emails about this issue today.

Google recently rolled out vignette ads for desktop users and it appears you can't close some of their ads. This is happening to many websites, not just EC, so we need to alert them to the issue.

Also, we have a separate folder for mobile users. It's great except that things get complicated when we're trying to send people to a particular post instead of just an article.

We will look into both issues. In the meantime, if anyone else is having issues with those google ads, please add a reply to this email

We've had Google ads on the site since 2002, by the way. We were one of Google's first ad publishers if you can believe it!

Those ads have helped pay for the cost of the site, writers, moderators and programmers over the years.

My email goes to a FULL PAGE AD which I do NOT see anyway out.I do not see an "X" to exit. The email to me about sea salt and lungs I did not read anything about sea salt on the page it sent me. Your emails are messed up. Please check into this. "google ads.g.doubleclick.net" I enjoy reading your web site, But this is really irritating. I did not see a different email address to write you about this.

On the Latest Posts page the Editor's Choice icon (Lugol's Iodine for Covid-19 Fri, 23 Oct 20 10:07:26 -0700)

is layered above the menu. It floats on top when you scroll through the menu and covers the links.

Also if you click that post's link it takes you to the post, but opening and closing the menu brings you to the top of the page instead of back to the post (which is at the bottom of the page).

EarthClinic is one of the best looking sites on the Net. That logo is *perfect* :) The blue and green combined with the black and white. The sans serif, no caps... The little white dude with the arrow. Whoever designed that it is *sweet*! The little leaves embracing the Earth....

EC: Thank you so much. We appreciate the alerts!

Yes, noticed that about the Editor's Choice floating at the top today too. It's on his "to do" list.

We've had that exact same logo since 2008, by the way! The font changed 2 years ago, but nothing else.
