Composite image with my location on the left and on the right, the quest: an empty cobbled street, in shadow, with a municipal building opposite. There are three courses of windows on the front, mostly with their blinds up. In the foreground is a pole with a clock on it showing just after 2pm.

Amazing that this quest was in the middle of the road right by one of our most-used bus stops.

Composite image with my location on the left and on the right, the quest: a wide-andle photo of a wall missing most of its stucco at the bottom, revelaing ancient brickwork and two courses of windows, the lower ones barred, the uppwer ones with shutters. Above, a fence of glass panels.

Unable to login to Monocle

Monocle would not allow me to login using this site, saying there was no microsub endpoint. This was because in upgrading Known, I had forgotten that I had added the link to microsub before. I had also forgotten which of the hundreds of template files I had to edit in order to do that. In the end I found it with a brute-force search for all files ending in `.tpl.php` The file in question lives at `./IdnoPlugins/IndiePub/templates/default/indiepub/shell/head.tpl.php`.

Having found the correct file to edit, the rest was straightforward thanks to [excellent instructions.

I was out on the bicycle running errands, so it was an extra delight to bag a rabbit-quest.
