 | There was a rogue ad that wouldn't load until it timed out, sorry about that.  |
 | You can post a Job Offer in the Business Exchange section of the site if you'd like.  |
 | Exactly niek_e ... sorry, we're actually required to fulfill antispam regulations to keep information about every user who registers with us on record. |
 | Re: Awkward ad That's our DaniWeb dude!! He's been out mascot for years and years. He's not corporate ... he's wearing a DaniWeb-colored polo.  |
| | We use hashes a lot in our URIs to jump people around to a specific place on the page. For example (www.example.com#part1 and www.example.com#part2). However, we have a static fixed header at the top of the page, and so if it tries to jump you down, it ends up plopping … |
 | Thank you for your feedback!! :) There is currently a feature freeze on everything because we are currently in the early stages of rolling out a site makeover later in the month. It most likely will be replaced with something such as a short word that doesn't take up so … |
 | Re: API issue It seems to be having an issue unserializing the favorites and the social media member fields. Although I'm not quite sure exactly why, I think it has something to do with this: http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/php/threads/459459/codeigniter-session-class-unserialize-failure |
| | AdSense is the best place to start because, firstly, they tap into a lot of other ad networks, and secondly, they are pretty good about filling 100% of the impressions you have, meaning that you can work with JUST them and be fine. CPM rates (cost per thousand ad impressions) … |
| | Re: Avatar Trend Sorry for the delay. Yeah, we always used Gravatar as a backup (at least for the past long while) but we switched from using the "mystery man" grey cartoony guy as the last-resort backup (which was the same for everyone) to the email-hash based Gravatars. |
| | There is full read and write chat functionality now added to the API :) Who wants to write two-way IRC<-->DaniWeb Chat integration? ;) Any takers ... ?? You need an access token in order to post, but it's feasable if you create a new DaniWeb account named "IRC Bot" and …  |
 | |
| | Re: .inc.php I've seen it used to reference PHP include files ... those PHP scripts that can't stand on their own but simply are helpers meant to be referenced from other php scripts. |
 | Re: <m /> or michael Seems like he hasn't been around for two weeks. As you say, it's probably school finals or something. Hopefully.  |
| | |
 | My apologies for taking so long to post in this thread. I've spent a lot of time out of the office in the city last week and this due to Advertising Week and then the CES Press Preview show. I think that we can all agree here that we all … |
| | There are networking handshakes, as EvolutionFallen discussed, but they are different from what you seem to be asking for. (A networking handshake really has nothing to do with emailing upon clicking a link). What programming language are you using in class?? CSS is just used to aesthetically style html markup. |
| | Re: PHP MYSQL helper The way that the DaniWeb community works is that you post your question here, and members of the community then can jointly reply. This way, it helps just not you, but other people in the future who may have the same problem as you do. |
 | Sounds great!! Welcome back. Looking forward to reading your mini-tutorials! |
| | Maybe I'm just being dense, but I'm using [this documentation](https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2Login#sendauthrequest) to use Google OAuth 2 login. I'm able to successfully retrieve a JSON array that consists of the access_token, id_token, etc. The id_token is encrypted in what google calls a JWT (JSON Web Token). From what I understand, they're base … |
| | They certainly don't work as much today as they used to in the past. Nowadays it's built into the search algorithms that they understand what a forum is and what forum signatures are, and treat them accordingly.  |
| | Is it no longer possible to change the crawl rate for a site in Google Webmaster Tools? Can't find the option anymore. |
 | Sorry, I'm confused. You read an article where the writer listed all different techniques, so you want to come here and have *us* come up with the same list for you that you just read?? The best way to build backlinks is to create amazing content that people will want … |

| | AdSense ads show up blank on pages that are blocked with a robots.txt file, contain illegal/pornographic/etc content, and a couple of other stipulations that Google places. Also be sure you have an appropriate backfill set up in your AdSense settings. |
| | FedEx Kinkos? Minuteman Press (might be local to me) ?? |
| | |
| | I say a URL-slug (i.e. when you have the title of the page in the URL, such as "seo-post-features" for this thread) should be no more than 20 or so characters. |
 | Are you sure that you aren't accidentally hitting some type of hotkey that is swapping between qwerty and dvorak layouts? |
| | The code parameter is based off of your client_id AND redirect_uri so be sure the same redirect_uri is used to fetch the code as is being passed into the subsequent request to fetch the access token. It looks here as if you're fetching the code parameter from a browser request … |
| | As many of you know, we got rid of the live preview last week. Originally it was intended to just be a test to see if it was causing severe posting lags on very slow computers, but it turns out that most of the regulars prefer not having it (either … |
| | Re: Adsense Yes, Google gets very picky about this when there are multiple accounts originating from the same address because so many people sign up with another family member's name after their own account was disabled for fraudulent clicks. It's worth taking the risk, but be prepared that your account might be … |
| | Re: need banners Try using ad networks like Google AdSense to start earning advertising revenue right away. |
| | What is a radio page? I would start with something like Google AdSense. It allows you to have some advertising up until you are able to land advertiers yourself, and by seeing how much money you're getting from AdSense, you'll be able to judge how much ads in your niche … |
| | Umm .... what language are you talking about? I can move your thread for you or you can repost it within the correct forum and I'll delete this one. |

| | Google Panda rollout this week, confirmed by Google today, even though they previously said they were no longer going to confirm Panda updates. Word on the street is that they've softened the algorithm to not penalize border cases, and I've heard that some people are talking about recovery. DaniWeb hasn't, …  |
 | This code is untested as I'm just typing it off the cuff, but try something more along these lines: <?php class database { ... blah blah blah public function fetch($query = '') { ... blah blah blah ... } } class user { private $person; public function get($property) { return … |
| | How can I change the color of a Vector Smart Object that was imported from Illustrator into Photoshop? Both products are from CS 6. When I try to do color overlay it just colors over the whole thing, and there's supposed to be a white cutout in the vector. |
| | We log complete daily transcripts of our live web chat. There are a lot of interesting conversations that go on here, but of course they are posted as short, concise messages, as one would expect from a live chat room. What are the chances that Googlebot would eat our chat … |

 | > Loving the T-shirt where did you get it from? Is it in-house? Haha yeah. It's one of the DaniWeb tshirts. |
| | We use `date_default_timezone_set('GMT');` and, subsequently, all timestamps are stored in our database in GMT format. Each individual community member specifies their GMT offset from a dropdown menu in their profile. Then, when we display the timestamps, we add the GMT offset to the timestamp while pretty printing it. The problem … |
 | I've never heard of Alchemy at all but it's possible that your hosting company doesn't support file_get_contents(). Try using cURL instead. Better yet, can you tell us what the error message is?? |
 | Figuring out how to recover from whatever Google algorithm hit us with a 50% traffic loss back in November!! |
 | Oh, that's creepy. Does your webcam have a little light indicator when it's in use? |
| | Re: Hello Welcome to DaniWeb ... same with me. I used to build computers from scratch but I got tired of doing that and switched to buying Dells a few years back. :) |
| | Re: Render problem This is by design. When you're on the 2nd+ page of a thread, it is meant to just show you a shortened preview of the first few sentences of the OP. We can't parse markdown because the cutoff might be mid-code block, etc. IMO, that's what is great about Markdown. … |
| | Changes to the API structure happened a bunch of days ago, when I said, "Making changes to the API strucutre" and you said, "OK, I'll wait!" and then I said, "OK Done!". In all honesty, I think that I introduced a bug at the same time Friday afternoon as I … |
