 | Upgraded my computer from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1. It's on a domain that uses Windows Server Essentials 2012 R2. In doing so, Windows Server Essentials no longer detects the computer. Do I have to run that /connect tool again?? |
 | Do *you* agree? I think that different social media platforms work best with different audiences, and I would agree that Pinterest is better than FB/Twitter when it comes to eCommerce, especially towards the end of the sales funnel.  |
 | Yes, you're missing something :) When you do a lost password request, it changes your password to a random unknown combination of characters, and logs you into the edit profile page. You need to reset your password to something and save that. At this point, your password is some unknown …  |
| | Re: online status There is already an indicator whether someone is online or not. If a member is online, there is a button that says that they're online and you can launch a live chat with them. |
| | I have no clue what a PTC site is. What are you talking about?? |

| | Click on 'Edit Profile' at the top of any page. (Or click [this link](http://www.daniweb.com/members/edit_profile). Scroll to the bottom of the page and tick the little checkbox. |
 | Oh, that's incredibly strange. You're supposed to have a black X next to the room name. What OS / browser combo? |
 | Validating country domains seems like a silly way of validating email addresses. .com is a valid domain but dani@skdjflksdfjlksd.com is not a valid email address :) I would use regex on the part before the @ to make sure there are no invalid characters and to test its length, etc. …  |
| | The flag is removed if you change the email address in your profile. You'll need to change it to something else, and then change it back to the email you want to use. I should probably change this so that editing your profile always clears the flag, eh? |
 | Yes, that's Fred you see making a cameo. I'll take care of this. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Not too many members with transparent avatars! |
| | Mike, as agilemind points out, often major tech companies buy out startups that developed technology, because it's easier than having to reinvent the wheel. Why put a team on a project developing technology X for two years when they can just buy a company that already perfected it for half … |

| | Re: forum I would be all over this thread if I didn't have the flu. My head is way too cloudy to think. |
| | I've been in bed with the flu for the past week and haven't even looked at my computer. I'm finally starting to feel better! I'm going through everything that I missed, slowly but surely, but I'm likely not going to catch *everything*. Were there any important things that I missed …  |
| | > Seeing them used for corporate advertising. "Like us to see our special offers", etc.. Dishonest. I don't see that as dishonest at all. Special offers aren't a "right" that you are entitled to as the consumer. It's the company's perogative to ask for you to do something for them … |

| | Try turning personal results on or off, or even try logging out of Google+ entirely when you conduct your google searches. You'll find that results tend to be customized to your own browsing behavior, so logging out and clearing cookies throws a few settings back to default |
| | The same way an English professor might ask you to write gramatically correct sentences without access to a Word processor capable of grammar checking. You should be able to understand waht's going on and submit something with confidence without it having to be run through a compiler to guarantee its … |

| | It's not just the number of posts. It's also how long you've been a member. I believe, if memory serves me correctly, you need to be a member for at least 5 days. |
| | Please keep an eye out and let me know if this turns into a reproducable bug. |

| | Welcome to DaniWeb :) As Silveraden points out, reading forums are an excellent place to learn all different marketing techniques and strategies. |

| | Hey everyone!! One of our partners, SpiceWorks, has recently put out a Career Tips eBook for people seeking IT job career growth. It's over at http://www.spiceworks.com/ebooks/2014-top-it-career-advice/ I want to direct your attention to page 6 (out of 56) ... Tip 4 on the list was written by yours truly. I …  |

 | Gah, this question requires knowledge of WordPress Woo Commerce, which is pretty niche. Hopefully someone out there could help you ... good luck!! :) |
 | |
| | Oh, awesome! I noticed that you had deleted your account last night with no explanation, and there was a very long thread in the moderators' forum about how ethical it would be to manually dig into the database, pull out your email address, and email you asking what happened!! I'll … |
 | Re: introduction Hi there Mike :) Welcome to DaniWeb. Don't mind Alexline ... sometimes newbies don't know / understand proper forum etiquette so we give them a little extra slack as long as it shows they are trying to be courteous and trying. |
| | As you may know, I've been putting a lot of work into the DaniPad website @ http://www.daniweb.com/danipad over the past few days. Because DaniPad accepts credit cards, I had to go ahead and get an SSL certificate and optimize the site for https:// over http:// While doing so, I've gone … |
 | I'm sorry, I'm confused by your question. Is this something that Linkshare offers (the ability to see all of the publishers registered)? |
| | > "The execs have the Google geeks working over time to ensure that at the end of each quater there is a spike in revenue thus making the charts look great for shareholders". Sounds like an accurate statement that would hold true for any publicly traded company.  |
 | Re: Unintended Link They clicked the 'Link' button in the editor toolbar, and then hit cancel, and when it injected dummy text for 'insert link here' Markdown into the editor, they didn't delete it. |
| | What type of website analysis? I use http://www.webpagetest.org for example, but not sure if that's what you're thinking of. |
 | I'm confused by what you mean. Webpage size? Standard sizes?? Basically you just need to design your sites to accomodate people who browse your site from all different size web browsers and resolutions. Design for 1024 pixels wide, typically.  |
| | I'm confused by your question. Check *what* geotargeted campaigns?? |
| | If you got the answer to your question, can you please mark it as Solved? (Button at top and bottom of page). Thanks! :) |
 | Re: Subscribe Box The easiest way to get started for someone without a lot of web dev experience is to use a preexisting service. Here's an example of one => http://www.bravemailer.com/ |
| | Simply uncheck 'Automatically Watch Articles I Post In' and then go to your watched article page, and click the button at the bottom to stop watching all articles. |
| | No need to keep refreshing, either ... you'll receive hourly email alerts for threads on your watch list. |
| | It's time yet again for a DaniWeb Developer Competition!! This time the goal is to utilize [our new API](http://www.daniweb.com/api/home) launched last month. There's a lot that you can do with our API. Essentially it allows your application (web, desktop, mobile, etc) to tap into DaniWeb's backend. Your own application can … |
| | That's the point of the mailing list :) It actually already does filter out content we don't think you'd be interested in. There's a warning label when you opt into it that you're supposed to set up mail rules to do filtering for you based on your own needs. |
 | Re: 10,000 posts I'll just pretend that I was named somewhere in your acceptance speech for writing such an awesome platform in the first place. :) Seriously, congrats!  |
The End.
