Meta DaniWeb

Hey all, I must say its taken me a while to get hang of the new sites layout and all but im finally getting there. one thing i cant seem to get is the 'up voting' system.... in the old site you were able to either up vote a post …

Hey! I know Dani has a lot of important stuff to do, but I am a bit curious. I thought it was kind of nifty that you could type :) or :-) and get that yellow little smiley staring back at you. Is that a thing of the past, or …

this is how the enter key is operating if i dont use the mouse to cut my text lines.. the cursor is still sitting at the top sentence the cursor is still sitting at the top sentenc the cursor is still sitting at the top senten the cursor is still …

Not sure if this has been mentioned - I did search but couldn't find anything that related: Noticed this issue in Opera today. I rarely use the browser, but seems common on all pages with code. The code numbers seem to overlap.  As you can see, just the …

Hi, Though I am not using IE8, just posting it for feedback. Menus dont work properly. I am using Firefox with adblock. In IE it maybe due to flash ad just where menus appear. Dont know just posted it to report bug :)

As I looked through the rules I did not find direct reference of not bumping messages, like this http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/python/threads/420770/pygame-quick-help#post1796253 I can of course down vote, as it does not require breaking the rules, but would be nice to get few comments about the unwritten law ##Thou shalt not bump your …

another feature gone missing, mostly irrelevant but i still found it interesting when posting a new thread and waiting for an answer to see how many people visited it without answering! (also i saw someone mention this but it was 3 weeks ago~ permalinks for posts would be fun to …

Noticed that the submit a reply button has to be clicked twice in order to submit. Is this supposed to happen?

Weird question? :D I wanted to know who are daniweb administrators/moderators? Are they just watching posts and correcting(delete, modify etc) them or they are employees of daniweb? And please do reply :)

I copied/pasted the html code for my member badge into my vBulletin web site but it doesn't work. All I get is the html code and not the badge image. What's wrong?

Found an odd fix for the bad comments for the CODE section for the vb.net forumns. If you add an additional ' at the end of the commented line, it renders fine.

Hi, In watched articles there is option for "stop watching selected article". But I didnt find any option to select article.

Will there still be HTML code snippets of our Daniweb member badges where we can copy and include it in our websites?

I totally understand this is probably not what it was actually called but i dont recall, what I am looking for is the page where you would see some info on reputation changes and post statistics and other stuff, but it was not the public profile that other users can …

By a strange (and fortunate) coincidence, while DanaWeb was down for the upgrade I had to completely rebuiild my system due to a hard drive failure (fortunately I had warning so I had complete backups). However, I've noticed some odd behaviour since then that I don't know is the result …

Hi folks, Please join me welcoming our two new moderators: [ardav](http://www.daniweb.com/members/ardav/120589) and [pyTony](http://www.daniweb.com/members/pyTony/734700). @pyTony & @ardav Congratulations on your new role at Daniweb. Celebrations ahoy! :)

Maybe it's just me having a "senior moment", but we seem to have lost the facility where you could hover the mouse over a topic's title on the forum listing page and see the first line or two of the post. I used this all the time to get a …

Hi all I was on break and just came back to Daniweb. I saw some great changes here like texteditor and user menu on top. I have some problems, admins please guide me firstly i am not having any email if someone replies to articles, i have posted in and …

There is currently a bug where Internet Explorer 8 users cannot reply to existing threads. I am aware of the problem and am still working on a resolution. IE 9 works fine, as do Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. If you are affected, it is highly recommended that you upgrade from …

I tried using [code] and [/code] but that doesn't work. I tried using the Code button but that didn't seem to work either (i.e. past code into editor, highlight, then hit the Code button). So how to add code tags?

Hi this is anand, New version of daniweb looks good, but some tutorials which are displayed in top of the forum were not listed in top now

Our code snippets where listed under our usernames. It was handy just to have them there all under one link. Now I'm don't know where to find my code snippets other than trawl through the code snippet section. It would be nice to have it listed under our usernames again.

Well, after the reinnovation of daniweb, the whole website seems to be a bit slow(Not just bit). Moving from forum to forum, my profile, edit profile, almost everypage. And most of the time i need to refresh again and again to get to that page. Speed checked my connection, all …

Here is my take as code tag police in new era of Daniweb: http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/python/threads/418619/generate-page-using-python Reposted here: Could you repost with new code markup, which is indention by at least 4 spaces, after empty line, so you could do in your python editor: ctrl-A, indent, ctrl-C, undo (or close without saving) …

Got a bit of a shock. **My original avatar showed up!** I take it these are transition gremlins? Also the Code button on editor didn't post the right formatting when I tried it. or perhaps it did?! :(

hello ! well today i got two down votes , i dont think that there is any thing wrong with my post , as we know who add reputation to us , can we know the person who is down voting us , and is there any way to balance …

I would like to see a "Subscribe to Thread" feature added. There are occasions when I want to be notified if there are new postings to a thread, even when I feel I have nothing to contribute. I (generally) don't like posting unless I can make a contribution to the …

What is this new advertising I see in threads -- some words look like links but when I hover the mouse over them an advertisement pops up.

Can I please have my username changed to: nrmillions thanks!

hello ! is there any way to complaint against any user . if yes then how ? Regards

I just want to say thank you to every one who keeps helping me try to code (thines01 and others). Without you i would know nothing, Thanks very much Keep it up guys

There's someone who downvotes 5-10 posts of mine everyday, and not like bad posts, whoever it is downvotes my good posts which have already been upvoted! I cannot understand why the person in concern is doing this; this is not community spirit! I request an admin for help: I'm not …

Are you facing same issue? If yes then Why? And how to resolve it?

If new DW is being rolled out shortly, perhaps I'm too late. I've found the auto parse urls to be a massive pain. The editor can either be basic or standard (can it be set to Advanced Editor??), meaning that if I want to display a url as text I …

I have something to say.. Is there any way to convert the [url]http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/vbnet/58[/url] page as live page... I mean like facebook. whenever i want to see who last reply a thread i must have to refresh the page. But it will be great if the form automatically refresh some parts …

Please change my username to dave27johnson. Thanks.

I am wondering if it would be possible to have my current username changed to shywolf91?

Hi can I change my username to "itsWORLDPEACE"?

is it possible to add a functionality to 'flag a bad pm', like the 'flag bad post'? I just got this pm [Quote="kwasiy"] Dear associate, The bank directors mandated me to look for any known relation of our late client who deposited a enormous amount of money in our bank …

Could someone please undo the negative vote I made on [url]http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/vbnet/threads/411073[/url] I didn't intend to ding the OP and I can't see any way of undoing it myself.

Could somebody please put a sticky post like [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/python/threads/366794"]this[/URL] at the top of the VB.NET forum? It's gotten to the point where people are now posting blocks of uncommented code and no actual question. It might help if the first thing at the top of the page was [B][COLOR="Red"]"Read This …

I've noticed that DW is sluggish or even down on Sunday mornings/early afternoon. Is this a common finding? I've noticed this over the last couple of weeks. //EDIT Seems it is as no posts to PHP forum for the last 5 hours.

Made a PayPal donation several days ago and am wondering at what point the adverts actually disappear? Getting rid of the ads is not exactly the most important thing in my life but it would be nice to know that the money got through. Come to think of it, I …

I happen to read through some good posts by someone, and just as being appreciative, i pressed on Up-Arrow (positive arrow). For some time like 1 or 2, it worked fine, but later As soon as i pressed it, both arrows disappeared. It happened like 2 or 3 times with …

I tried to report a duplicate thread in vb6, got this message - [QUOTE]AndreRet, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons: Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone …

OK, we know if we pull out the ranking list, we can see the one with the maximum post, reps or solved threads etc. But this is not about that, its about the people's choice, so who do you think is the best among the big boys here. (Multiple entries …

Just a quick suggestion but it would be useful to be able to filter down all the threads in a section to the ones you have replied too, using the tabs at the top. As there is definately space for another tab :D Implementing it could not be so easy …

Is there any way to respond to reputation comments as I feel it a little unfair that if someone writes a comment about a post I have made that I feel is unjustified that I can't respond to it (unless I am missing something)? Or even a way to dispute …

Well! I came to know about Daniweb IRC very recently. And would like to join the party. But i heard that it is only possible in Mozilla Firefox. So is this true? And can i use IRC chat in chrome, if yes, How?

Well for some time now, i cannot add reputation points to anyone (Both +ve & -ve). Any idea why?
