 | Re: Link wheel I'm confused, isn't link wheeling where a bunch of sites in the "wheel" all link to each other? It's like reciprocal links on a larger scale where (hopefully) Google won't catch on that it's a reciprocal link if enough sites are involved, but Google *is* starting to catch onto this, …  |
 | > Why is it that only the first image is shown in thumbnail and the other two are Xed out? Bug fixed. > Also, why are they named Image12, Image22 and Image3 They were renamed when uploaded because Image1.jpg and Image2.jpg already exist in the file system.  |
| | I am confused what you're asking, sorry. You want to create a login forum?? Huh?? |
| | Essentially you want to select every item in the list except for the one being clicked on, right? If they're all at the same level in the document tree, and all of the tabs are the *only* thing at that level of the document tree, you can try `$(this).siblings().css({'color': 'white', … |

| | Absolutely :) Have you noticed that when you hover over links on DaniWeb, a screenshot of the landing page appears? Test: http://www.daniweb.com I would recommend using JQuery. There are plenty of existing plugins that do this available, or you could write your own. Do a google search for "jquery tooltip". |
| | Re: Citation It's when other people talk about your content and link to it. For example, suppose a whole bunch of people on different sites all started saying "According to an article in the New York Times, ..." and they were all linking back to the article. |
| | |
| | Create awesome content and then promote it through Facebook and Twitter. Create a FB fan page and cross-promote.  |
| | Re: Old Threads Old threads get a big message placed right above the reply box saying that the thread is dead and to start a new one instead, with a link to do so. I am against locking them because there ARE times when, years later, valuable information does get contributed. |
| | I hav no clue what you're talking about. You want to rank in the search engines for the keyword 'pure water supply'? Create good, quality content. Write articles about the topic. Swap links at the beginning. I know it's hard, but make water FUN and AMUSING and stuff that people …  |
 | Sorry mSedique ... What do you mean image slider?? Also, are you familiar with jQuery and/or would you be willing to include the jQuery javascript library? |
 | Sooooo ... crazy huge thanks to James #2, I think that we officially have liftoff when it comes to marking threads read. Most of the code that goes into this functionality was way above my head, and took me about three hours to comprehend 100 lines of code tonight, so … |
| | DaniWeb was hit by the first Panda algorithm update and ended up losing about 60% of our traffic (which we later gained back a few months later). Google has said that the latest version affected about 1-4% of all sites on the Internet, but not that individual sites were only … |
| | We've always had the bar, for at least the past 2 or 3 years. You don't find it useful? |
| | |
 | I changed it for you but really... I thought we got the editor working finally. What browser are you using? |
 | Make sure cookies are enabled, and that the login form wasn't from a page that was sitting idle for 6+ hours. Also, are you going through a proxy server? Any weird Chrome extensions installed? |
| | Yes, it's definitely important to have a server in the same country you want to target. Search engines do check the server location. As also pointed out, having a server closer to your visitors is going to make the site load faster for them. Worst case scenario, and you can't …  |
 | Hi, I've had good success in the official Google Groups forums. You can of course also email support ad adsense-support@google.com, adwords-support, etc. If you have a Webmaster Tools account, you can contact them through there. Unfortunately, I don't think that they will offer an answer to this particular question of … |
| | Sorry, I guess I'm behind the times. Whta are Facebook templates? For Facebook apps?? |
| | > One important thing I notice is that regular posters on a forum can spot an advertising posts in a heart beat. Couldn't be more true! What is so frustrating is when people think they are getting away with free backlinks, but they are really just coming off as spammers. … |
 | |
 | Lots of really great, high quality content. |
| | A Google official has announced this morning that the search giant is back in action in China. Google, the second most popular search engine in China, behind Baidu, announced in January of this year that it would no longer censor its search results on the Chinese version of its website, … |
| | Sorry about all the site downtime today. :( Long story short, there was a huge problem that was the fault of our hosting company. James #1 can explain further :) |
| | Yes, I believe it can, although I'm not sure there's official confirmation of this. Have you noticed the "sandbox" effect (where no matter what changes you make, there's just absolutely no improvement for a set period of months) after switching hosts? |
 | Browse webmaster forums looking for creative features to add to DaniWeb. I'll then have a project on my hands and will no longer be bored with nothing to do. Or I veg in front of the tv.  |
| | Do you currently use cookies to log people in? Is that working successfully for you already? As Jorge pointed out, different members can have different roles/groups/etc tied to their accounts in the database. When you check their login information against their credentials in the database, you can see what kind … |

| | White hat on-page SEO with a bit of pagerank sculpting thrown in. |
 | The toolbar doesn't appear for mobile. iOS has a problem with fixed positioning, and it was pointed out to me that other mobile browsers have the same problem. |

| | File a reinclusion request in Google Webmaster Tools (google.com/webmasters). It can take a couple of weeks for a response though. Make sure that your robots.txt file is not blocking any URLs that you don't want it to, and make sure your .htaccess file is not doing any weird redirects you … |
| | [According to Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_hijacking) An important part of Google's algorithm is duplicate content. If multiple pages on the web have the same content, only the one that Google believes is the original/authority remains. This is a technique to fool Google into thinking that the wrong one is the original, therefore deindexing … |

| | Re: Which is best HTML is a client-side markup language. Everything on the web uses HTML. PHP is a server-side language that lets you send different content to different visitors and make a website interactive. It outputs HTML. |
 | Re: Website Traffic Give people a reason to want to register. Create great content. Give them incentives. Tell them what's so great about joining and why they should do it. Promote your site through Facebook and twitter. Create a FB fan page. Encourage your FB friends to like and share your site. |
| | I think this can still be an interesting theoretical question. You have a list of email addresses. (It doesn't matter how you got them. At the end of the day, you have them.) What can you do with them? What are the possibilities? Kinda the intended purpose of the Promotion …  |
| | |
 | It can take up to about three months. |
 | That's a very broad question ... Read up in this and other SEO forums and you'll be sure to get *LOTS* of amazing information. Nice, clean HTML code, properly structured, good internal navigation with good linking strategy, etc. |
| | Re: Backlink Check Google's link: filter is super inaccurate. Use Google Webmaster Tools at [url]www.google.com/webmasters/[/url] |
 | Re: Vote up/down If you just click the arrow up or down, it doesn't affect reputation at all. If you click the arrow and type in a comment, then reputation is usually affected (unless it's in an off-topic forum such as Community Center, or you already gave that person reputation today). |
| | Option 1: The "Show Comments" link will be fixed and only visible when there actually *are* post comments to show. Option 2: A post's comments will always be visible beneath a post (a la Stack Overflow and many other forums that have commenting systems). My concern is that this will … |
| | Re: Related Article I changed it over the weekend, so it's fairly new. I also made a change where if you visit an old thread, instead of the notice that the thread is dead, there is now a link encouraging you to start a new thread instead. |
| | It seems, unfortunately, like it is your hardware. A surge from a lightning storm would definitely produce such an effect. However, the good news is that if you're not experiencing problems other than with your monitor, your motherboard, processor, and hard drives are (hopefully) saved. Now for the bad news. … |

The End.
