We are in the process of upgrading both the version of Codeigniter PHP framework we are using, as well as the version of PHP we're on. We are just putting some final touches and anticipate going live in the next few days. I'll update this thread when we do. If …

I think this is more of a concern to Dani and I'm not writing this is a bug. Just interesting. Here's what it looks like now: ![image_2023-07-26_075408848.png](https://static.daniweb.com/attachments/1/715c14ba22519640007c06526b9be765.png) If DANIWEB is undergoing a rebrand like Twitter to X, I would used the greater than symbol.

Hi Everyone - Just wanted to post here that Dani is MIA for a little bit, she's keeping an eye on DaniWeb via her phone, but is away from her computer. I'm sure she'll be back at it soon!

DaniWeb will be switching to new servers later today, and there is planned downtime of a couple of hours. Unfortunately, I don't have an easy way of putting the site into read-only mode. What will most likely happen is that we might lose a few hours of database content.

Sorry for the brief downtime today. I was refactoring some stuff on the web server when DaniWeb went down unexpectedly. I spent about 10-15 minutes going crazy trying to figure out why nothing was being written to the log file and what went wrong, when it turns out I forgot …

How do you reply to a post here without having to vote? Trying to answer a question with the character limit is hard. Also I don't think any of the tags are relevant to this post, but it is required, so I will add one.

When I get onto Daniweb I notice that the private message icon (speech bubble) next to my avatar has a little red dot. I believe that was to notify me that I have one or more PMs waiting to be read. However when I go to the message centre there …

While going through new posts this morning I noticed a change in behaviour. Yesterday, if I clicked on the sprocket to the right of a thread title I got a pop-up menu (mark as read, etc.). Today the menu pops up briefly before I get taken to the thread. There …

The White House continues to insist that inflation will soon subside and that the U.S. will return to its pre-coronavirus prosperity. But the Biden administration's regulatory agenda actually ensures that the post-

You may have encountered a weird error message trying to log into DaniWeb today. We were victim to a signup attack yesterday where 1000+ bots figured out a way around our CAPTCHA and signed up. I've tightened up the signup + login forms today to prevent this from happening again …

I’ve made some UI changes to our forums page after my husband told me it looked too old school and like a 1990s webpage. Let me know your thoughts: https://www.daniweb.com/forums As you may have noticed, I also made some changes to the sorting and filter buttons on forum listing pages. …

I archived all the messages in my message list (also yours Dani). Now, if I get a new message (from you) I get a popup stating I have a new message, but this message does not appear in my message list. Is this a bug or an undocumented feature?

What I've been doing is to click and drag to select code. Is there a hotkey that will select only the code? CTRL-A selects all text on the page.

When I create a new topic and enter the mandatory tags, the tag dialog box sometimes overlays the "Continue to the Last Step" button leaving only the merest sliver of a button to click. Could the tag dialog be aligned left to avoid this?

The front page seems to fill with duplicates. I'll paste what I'm seeing but here I am again finding the front page a place that I only check out to see if there's been any change for the better. Today, it's a reminder why I don't go there. Examples: ![image_2022-05-03_095315145.png](https://static.daniweb.com/attachments/1/8d2b74caeafa82ea146688089915f851.png) …

Many years ago, DaniWeb offered a pay-to-post system where each post was awarded a monetary value (typically between 5 and 50 cents), depending upon how in-depth it was, upvotes, etc. Members could cash out once a month if they earned $10 or more from their posts. Very few members took …

Late last night, I launched a rewrite of our front end HTML and CSS that is designed to look nearly identical, but is much faster and designed to be more easily updatable and manageable moving forward. Let me know if you spot any bugs or inconsistencies.

DaniWeb Premium is currently $5 per month. You can find details about everything it gives you [here](https://www.daniweb.com/donate/index) Do you think this is too high a price point? At what price point would you be willing to pay? What if it were $1.99? What if it were $3?

What are the odds. Three minutes before I popped in, we started getting support spam. I whacked 4-5 but I expect they'll keep coming.
