 * Could be. I was fairly certain it started out as a custom link even though, yes,
   this was for a link to an event. Let me double check that. Thanks!

 * Guys I’m having the same problem here. It’s insane.
 * Obviously removing the menu item is an option but it’s vastly easier to simply
   edit existing menu items (the reason being I have a bunch of custom code in there
   which I don’t want to retype).
 * The URL of a menu item used to be obvious and changeable. Now I just see the 
   word “Original:” and the page title it links to. No option of any kind to simply
   change the URL, but I can edit everything else.
 * This is utterly baffling. See screenshot below. There is no way to edit “Original”.

 * Right… thanks!
 * It didn’t work!
 * I checked the box, that said “import media and attachments” and the bloody thing
   seems to have completely ignored it!
 * What in the world could have happened? Should I delete all these posts and start

 * Right – here’s the deal though. I have no reason to believe that there is anything
   actually wrong with the site. I believe someone is deliberately messing with 
   us. … is that even possible? Or Am I just being paranoid? I’ve run all of the
   flagged pages through a whole bunch of scanners and they all say “clean”.

 * Okay, this is getting worse, now getting multiple warnings on other pages too.
 * I have reason to believe some politically minded jackass, or group of politically
   minded jackasses, is doing this on purpose by submitting articles to some kind
   of malware/phishing report site.
 * Does anyone think this is conceivably possible? And how to figure out where and
   how to stop it?

 * Yeah I went through all the links… would that be the obvious culprit? A link?
 * I am paranoid there’s something else going on.
 * BTW, what is scurry site?

 * Hey cool… I’m not good enough with JS or PHP to tell the difference, I’m afraid.
 * Would be interesting if you’ve managed to get GA to parse out the tags, however!

 * Cool.
 * Well, we hired some guys to build this out for us and they did a pretty good 
   job. You can see the code on TriplePundit.com and I’m happy to share the analytics
   with you if you want.
 * In a nutshell, the questions we’re trying to answer are:
 * 1) Who is my most popular author?
    2) Track all the traffic from a specific author
   over time. 3) What is my most popular category? And track it 3) What are my most
   popular tags? And track ’em….
 * I’m still sort of amazed that more people don’t talk about these questions as
   they seem pretty fundamental. Anyway, what we’ve got built right now is still
   something of a hack. For example, Google won’t separate tags. So if I have three
   posts tagged as follows:
 * 1) bananas
    2) apples 3) bananas, apples.
 * Then it actually thinks that’s 3 different tags. So the hack solution is to filter
   my google results just for “bananas” and it will show both “bananas” and “bananas,
   apples” but not “apples”. It’s kinda crappy, but it works for 95% of my needs.
 * Anyway, that may have been too much information, but there ya go!

 * Thanks! just did… it’s definitely related to Minify, for what it’s worth!
