 | There are so many resellers and resellers of resellers around nowadays. Many of them are 15 year olds working out of their bedrooms, who decide to just shut the site down when they go off to college, so you have to be careful where you buy from. As far as … |
| | You need two loops: An outer loop to keep track of the rows, and an inner loop to keep track of the number of asterisks per row. Right now, you have an outer loop that is keeping track of the rows. But you need to replace that cout line with … |
 | As many of you are probably aware, DaniWeb was hit hard by Google's Panda algorithm update back in February. A news story written by Davey entitled [url=http://www.daniweb.com/internet-marketing/search-engine-optimization/news/350575]Google Farmer Update: what went wrong?[/url] explained that the February 24th Panda algorithm targeted at content farms literally cut DaniWeb's US traffic by half. …  |
| | No, Wordpress is PHP based. However, Wordpress uses a templating system so you can modify the position and look of things just with HTML and CSS. If you want to add or modify features, though, you're either going to need to know PHP or be able to install Wordpress plugins … |
| | 5 am and I lost track of time! No sleep for Dani! I made some massive changes to member profiles. Most of the changes are cosmetic, but there are two noticeable differences: 1. Activity points is now all time instead of just for today, because it was getting a little …  |

| | In honor of the site relaunch, recent changes to the design of member profiles, and the new ability to change your username, I've gone ahead and taken that plunge myself. I've renamed myself from "cscgal" to "Dani". I feel I was long overdue to reinvent myself :)  |
| | Do a Google search for cache:[url]www.domain.com/page.html[/url] Edit: Oops, didn't realize this was page two of the thread, and the answer was already given. |
| | Now that there's a method to change a username, I think I'm going to take advantage of that. What does everyone think of me changing my username to Dani?  |
| | A form can only have one action. If the form HTML is: <form action="index.php?do=delete"> then that entire form must be processed by that action. (You can use some Javascript to circumvent that, but then it starts getting tricky.) |
 | Re: New UI Welcome back! It's not just the UI that's changed, however. DaniWeb is now being run off of an entirely different system. |
| | Aww, thanks for the super kind words about our community!! I'm touched :)  |
 | It's actually not just the spell checker. The editor we're using now has a decent API that lets us do things like have the code button work the way it does. Essentially, it's not just code highlighting vs spell check. It's properly formatted code vs spell check. You guys have … |
| | > How can I know when someone has replied to a post I've made, or to a reply I made to a post? The new notification system is called "watching" articles. Below the quick reply editor is a button that says "Watch this Article". You can also edit your preferences … |
| | Finally brought back an old feature that's been on DaniWeb for years upon years ... related articles. What do you think of their relevancy? |
| | The live editor preview that appears beneath the editor as you type (showing you what the final markup will look like in realtime) ... Yay or nay? |
| | > I have no idea what you're talking about. Parrot? Yes, because a parrot repeats whatever you say. "I do not follow the reason for the parroting of my work as I type" => "I do not follow the reason for the live preview repeating the editor as I type" |
| | We currently have a handful of issues and bugs related to our editor that I'd like to get straightened out 110% before making even more changes to the way it works. |
| | I'm feeling a little dumb when it comes to the editor that we are using, and I was wondering if anyone knew of any good online tutorials for an introduction to tokenizers.  |

| | I took a computer science course last semester during which we had to learn C#. We didn't have to learn it in the context of .NET but instead as a Java-like language which could be used on Unix systems. The following were the resources the professor sent us to to … |

| | As many of you know, communities such as DaniWeb thrive on a constant source of new blood into the community. Existing members lose interest, personal lives take over, and even the most dedicated of members tend to stick around for a limited amount of time. The hard part is welcoming …  |
| | We store a list of keywords in the database as a comma-delimited string. I want to use Sphinx to query against the field, but I'm worried that the keywords would all be treated as a single word since there are no spaces. I went ahead and edited the MySQL query … |
| | Re: Jtable_Java How can we help you? :) Do you have a question or did you mean to add this to our code snippet library? |
| | I'm confused by your question. The date column would be a column of your articles table, as would the message body column. For example, the following might be a structure of your articles table: id | title | body | date ------------------------ Your php code would then populate all four … |
| | If you're using flat files to store information, linux stores the creation date of the file and you can use that, but I assume that if you don't have access to a database you're not going to have access to the shell either. Best suggestion would be for the first …  |
| | I don't know what it means so I'm going to make my own thing up :) Search engine saturation refers to the law of diminishing returns as it pertains to the search engines. Essentially, you reach a maximum of how much SEO efforts you can do before you reach a … |
| | Re: Editing a post I'm confused what you mean. You mean you want the Quick Reply to go away when you edit a post? |
| | I'm attempting to use Sphinx for the first time in awhile. require('includes/lib/sphinxapi.php'); // Sphinx Search API $cl = new SphinxClient(); $cl->SetServer($config['SphinxServer']); $cl->SetSortMode(SPH_SORT_RELEVANCE); $cl->SetMatchMode(SPH_MATCH_ANY); $articles = $cl->Query('Foo', 'articles delta'); If I then do `var_dump($articles);` it just always returns `bool(false)`. What am I doing wrong? If, from the CLI on the web …  |
 | Are you receiving less traffic? The Panda and Penguin algorithm updates will affect your traffic levels but shouldn't affect your AdSense revenue directly. In fact, I've usually found that AdSense CPC tends to increase a tiny bit after a big algorithm shift because all of the sites on the losing … |
| | Join the club. Everyone needs to tweak their CSS explicitely for IE :(  |
| | I think it's just a matter of the technical support rep needing to go for some retraining. |
| | Re: SERPs Wait, now I'm confused :) Is it 'search engine ranking position' or 'search engine result pages'? :) |
| | |
 | |
| | Thanks for the bug report ... will have our sysadmin take a look at this :) |
| | I also don't see anything wrong with the screenshot?? |
| | |
 | Sorry about that ... it's another case of a file that is supposed to be out of sync on the dev server and production server. Essentially the file that says to show php strict warning messages is set to enabled on dev and is SUPPOSED to be suppressed in production. … |
| | We frown upon this question being asked here because it turns into a spamfest. But if you do a site search, you'll come up with quite a few hundred in a list.  |

 | Re: Thread following Aside from watching the articles (which you can check by going to the Watched Articles link at the top of the page), you need to make sure your options are set to receive email from DaniWeb. |
| | Hmmm ........ Don't focus on what other people are doing, just focus on how to make what you are doing better. Cheesy, I know, but there's not a lot of people hangin' around the DaniWeb office to get advice from! What's yours??  |
| | Don't put any faith at all into Google toolbar pagerank. Google still factors pagerank into its algorithm, but it has an interal pagerank that it uses, and whatever it says in the toolbar is always wrong. Back in the day (a long time ago), toolbar PR has a meaning, but … |

You can then click the Watched Articles link at the top of any page of the site to see a list of all the articles you're currently watching. Additionally, you will receive an email notification if … |
| | I would very highly recommend SurveyMonkey.com |
| | You don't need any license at all. It's fine as long as your ISP doesn't block port 80. It sounds like your hosting company allows port 80 (the http port) to be open, so sounds good. |
The End.
