Day 71. Reading Unit: sort of worked, sort of didn't

So I had this irresistible notion that I could set up some reading units in the HAX site, which would make it easy for me to offer some new options in Myth-Folklore without investing more time/effort in that blog... surely it would be possible to just take some stories at the HAX site, arrange them in order, and call it a reading unit, right?

So, it worked, kind of... but something really strange happened with all the navigation. I repaired the really bad part (where the titles and URLs got out of whack), but I cannot figure out how to work on the navigation to finish the unit. But it was fun learning how to fix the problem with the titles and the URLs; now I understand some more about how this system works.

Anyway, there is a reading unit, kind of, and you can pop it open, and there are stories in there, but the navigation is still not acting right, and there's no way for me (safely anyway) to add new pages to the unit.



It's not a big deal of course... and I probably don't have time really to be developing reading units now anyway. But at least I worked through the procedure of selecting the content that would go in the unit (I set up some columns in the HAX spreadsheet to do that)... so if I can get the navigation figured out, I'm ready to go! :-)
