I managed to get the archives back. Turns out it just required a little tweak to the template, replacing the old archives javascript command with the code called for by their new system. And I put in a line break to pretty up the top of the page slightly, with the new bar and all. Though I couldn't quite get the archive links formatted to match the rest of the page (I could get the first link to look fine, but it wouldn't carry over to the rest, so I decided to just make them all look the same). Anyway, rest easy, knowing that this blog's archives are back in service, to meet your various needs, whatever those might be.
