 | Very unfortunately, forums are really becoming quite old school, and traffic has been every declining. In an attempt to keep up with the times, I've been very slowly transitioning DaniWeb from being yet another generic computer forum into an interactive community of IT people and developers based on the concept … |
 | I currently have a binary string that has been encoded with base64_encode(). However, I need to represent this string only with 0-9a-zA-Z characters. I am currently wrapping the string in bin2hex() to represent it with 0-9a-f. However, for transport reasons, I would like to compress the string by representing it …  |
 | 1. Log out of DaniWeb 2. Click the Join DaniWeb link 3. If you are logged into Dazah, click the link below the "Continue" button that says Switch User; Otherwise, bypass this step 4. Click the link in the red box that says "Need to import your legacy DaniWeb login … |
 | When moderators delete posts, they are not actually removed from the database. In fact, moderators still have access to deleted content. This is important because, every so often, we will have a spammer come back and beg for forgiveness and to be unbanned, and we need to have a complete … |
 | I guess, if I were you, I would start by getting my hands on a sample exam. Take the full exam, time yourself, and see how well you do. If you do okay and are confident you can repeat the results in a testing center, then the amount of studying … |
 | I'm sorry, I cannot reproduce this. Next time, please let me know when the problem still exists, *before* making another post. |
 | I'm incredibly sorry for the confusion. The login page should now have a link towards the bottom to migrate your legacy DaniWeb login credentials into Dazah. |
 | This should work: 1. Go here => https://www.daniweb.com/members/auth/join 2. Log in with the email address associated with your old account. You might need to request a password reset. 3. That should work. |
| | Yeah, sorry about that, there was a bug where the "insert image into post" link was linking to the wrong path. |
| | You don't have anything uploaded to the correct directory on the server, or you don't have the correct permissions set. |
| | The bug related to post attachments that got introduced over the past couple of days should now be fixed. Attachments to private messages will be coming soon. |
 | Not feeling well today, but I'll check it out tomorrow. |
 | I just so happened to have stumbled upon this thread while browsing, so I guess I need to reply! :) DaniWeb is hosted with SoftLayer. Back when we first launched, we used a reseller account through ThePlanet.com for our dinky little shared server. Then, we grew, and expanded to a …  |

| | There was an incredibly weird inconsistency in the database where there were seven cases of the vote counting against the voter instead of against the author of the post. |
 | How long has the problem been going on? Just today, or for the past week? I'm still ironing out a LOT of issues, and fixing things, so it's also possible you caught me just as I was rolling something out. |
 | |
| | Received a bug report that people are unable to post. Testing. |
| | What image are you referring to? Your profile picture on Dazah? |
| | White label in what regard? White labeling just means they don't stick their own brand on it. |
| | If he attempted that, he would get an error message saying that you need to have no posts for 7 days before you can delete your membership (to avoid people clicking it accidentally b/c they don't realize it's permanent, and to ensure people take the time to think about what … |

| | Clearing your browser cache should fix the issue. |
| | Yeah, there's currently a bug in that it takes *forever*. I need to fix this within the next day or so. :) |
 | Hi, I'm sorry you're having difficulty. You should be able to remedy this by following these steps: 1. Click your name in the top navigation menu and go to Edit Profile 2. Click "Associate with a different account" 3. Log into Dazah with the same email address as is associated … |
| | I'm confused how one can set the page orientation of a website. One can simply stretch a browser window to any shape and size they want and if relative values are used for tables and such, the text will stretch along with the window.  |
 | Hi there ... can you please forward the email notifications you received to dani@daniwebmail.com? Would be super much appreciated. And in terms of Finder menu options ... Not sure why they're missing for you?? You don't see Unanswered Questions the third up from the bottom? |
 | Re: Dazah??? Hi, Your email address was imported into Dazah but not your password. You should be able to do a lost password recovery in order to log back into that account. And as far as who Dazah is ... well, it's me ;) Dazah is entirely my creation, owned and operated … |
 | |
| | I will fix soon!! I am accumulating a list of bugs to fix. Unfortunately I have to take care of some Dazah stuff first. But I'll get around to DaniWeb stuff within the next day or two. My goal is to have everything done -- both DaniWeb and Dazah -- … |
| | Hey everyone, Sorry that private messaging is still down. It's one of the main features that is being implemented through Dazah. Unfortunately, it wasn't until sticking it into a production environment when I realized that its performance is subpar and the algorithms need a major overhaul. That's what I've been … |
| | I can answer your first question. DaniWeb was written with PHP/MySQL. |
| | Re: Sponsored? I'm not seeing a sponsored icon associated with https://www.daniweb.com/members/1132926/derek-8. I'll fix the attachment bug soon. In the meantime, you could email me the screenshot at dani@daniwebmail.com. Most appreciated :) |
| | Re: DW API Status Unfortunately, there was never a tags endpoint, and the API has not been updated since switching to the tag-based system. While there is currently no way to filter results by tags (only forums) but this will be handled *very soon*. I'll try to get to it tonight or tomorrow the … |
 | > Is this a Menza test, or a not so subtle push to use a social media login? It is. ;) That being said ... for those who wish to use traditional email/password login ... Sorry, I imported emails into Dazah but I didn't import passwords. You will need to … |
| | Have you tried requesting a lost password? |
 | We rolled out a brand new code base just a couple of days ago and, due to many unforeseen challenges, it's going to remain rather buggy through the weekend. I really apologize, but I'm literally working on fumes right now. We did have a bug earlier that was fixed yesterday … |
| | Well ... We've launched. All new code. From the ground up. Every line rewritten by yours truly. It's a bit buggy here right now, but please just give me a day or so to clear everything up. |
 | > Why the move away from ID/PW You can still log in with a username + password through Dazah. |
 | Sorry, you're going to have to be a little bit more specific with your question. You can open Windows Notepad. Type out some HTML. Upload it to a web server via FTP. And there you go. |
| | This is an important notification that DaniWeb is in the process of being upgraded, and will most likely be down and/or in read-only mode for the remainder of th is evening. When it comes back up, it *may* be buggy ... we'll see. I've rewritten every single line of code … |
| | Most desktop icons can simply be dragged to the Recycle Bin. However, there are certain ones (such as internet explorer) which this doesn't work for. To remove these icons from the desktop, right click on an empty portion of your desktop and go to properties. The display properties window will …  |
| | I'm thinking of taking ProgrammingForums and taking it down and archiving all of its data. The original owner is planning on starting up a new forum, however, and attracting its core users. |
 | We have a couple of hotkeys (such as bold, italic, etc. when typing in the editor). Alt+S also is used to submit your post. But, aside from that, we are not overriding what the backspace key, etc. do. Perhaps you have a browser toolbar or plugin that is conflicting with … |
| | The link must have been temporarily down at the time that it was crawled. It will be recrawled regularly. In the meantime, DaniWeb is unfortunately on a code freeze because I am recoding the entire thing on a new platform, due to launch late this month. |
| | I wonder if we could get Narue posting here. |

| | I don't know anything about Android development, but hi!! |
| | Hi Mike, Firstly, the link to your blog is broken because you forgot to put the http:// part at the beginning of the link. Aside from that, signatures only show up when you start a discussion topic, and not with replies. When we switched to this layout, it was decided … |
| | Careful, a lot of those techniques no longer work. Directory submission, article submission, and blog commenting can all get you hit by the Google Penguin algorithm. Create compelling content that people are naturally going to want to share on social media. |
The End.
