What happened to the April 2015 "What's on your workbench" ?

I did a search and it says at this time that around 23 hours have gone by since last posting. Did it get "Spamed" by accident?

Sounds like a fat finger on

Sounds like a fat finger on an iphone accidentally spamed it. Since there is no confirm delete, chances are they are not even aware it happened.

What I'd kinda like to know is what happened to the April issue..... the suspense it killing me.

What's on my workbench?

I started this thread and there was one response, then it disappeared. I can't find anything under "recent posts" but if I do search on my profile for posts it shows up. someone must have hit teh spam by mistake (I hope that was it).

Should be back

Second post in the thread had been marked as spam. It should be restored by now.

The magazine is scheduled to appear on the first Monday of the month, which would be April 6.  It is generally available in soft release the Friday or Saturday before.

I thought it was decided that

I thought it was decided that the magazine would be released in the first, as the old monday release concept was abandoned after always so much confusion over the release date. It was discussed here on the forum a long time ago...

Yes, that's true, our goal is to release a new issue to the website on or about the first of the month. That's why the April issue goes up later today (April 2nd).

However, our email blasts go out on Monday, so the "come and get it" blast to the masses goes out next Monday, April 6th.

So it's actually a bit of both ...

As for what happened to the thread

Our random unpublish bug hit the thread. It seems to affect only threads that are seeing a lot of activity on them, so we watch pretty close and generally jump on them when they get unpublished. It hits roughly one thread per week. Not sure exactly why we have this bug. We're logging it and discussing the problem with our host provider, but so far we all are just scratching our heads. It's easy to see on our backend when it happens because it's in our server logs, so resurrecting the post isn't at all hard to do.
