PageRank is a direct measure of the power that external backlinks brought the given page at some point in the past. We know that the power of your backlinks influences how frequently and how deeply googlebot crawls your site. Therefore, the Google PR toolbar is a direct measure of how …

> but I think if someone has a problem with a post, they should have the decency to attach a comment with explanation, and a name to go with it. That is why only non-anonymous votes that include a comment affect reputation.

I switched it so they appear when you hover over a person's name/avatar instead of showing all the time, because they were taking up way too much vertical space and causing you to have to scroll past huge gaps between posts. Does it bother you?? Maybe I'll come up with …

There's .on(), and then there's also .one() when you only want it to execute once and then unbind itself after.

Not something on the current todo list but I'll think about it. Our system was purposefully designed against being able to accomidate multiple on/off email switches because I was turned off from Facebook's 100000 privacy settings.

A web-based IRC client is actually on the todo list, but it keeps getting pushed back to take care of Google-related priorities.

I cannot replicate this in Windows 7 / IE 9 and I won't have access to a Windows 8 box until later tonight. In the meantime, please make sure you're not in silly IE compatibility mode.

I believe files weren't being renamed for legacy reasons, but you shouldn't be seeing that error message either way. I'll look into it. Thanks!

Sorry, I've been super busy the past few days. Not all of the AJAX functionality on the site is available on the iPad. This is known and, more or less, an "acceptable loss".

The link to 'Posts Voted Down' are the list of posts that currently have a negative net vote count. For example, suppose a post receives two downvotes and three upvotes. The little number next to the post will have the net total, which is 1, and the post will actually …

Pritaeas, I use the object-oriented version of MySQLi. I also wrap my connection to MySQL within my own Database class. It gives me the freedom to do some things I need to do everytime a query is executed, such as determine which database server the query should be sent to.

Oh that's really neat!! Played around with it and it still needs some tweaking, but really really neat! :) Have you found our API relatively easy to work with in its current format?

This has been pushed to production (with a slight tweak to actually reduce server load because we no longer need to fetch forum titles of those subforums).

It took me a little bit of frustrating time to figure this out yesterday, so I thought I'd post it in case other people ran into the same issue. I set up PayPal Instant Payment Notification (IPN) and thoroughly tested it in the sandbox environment. Everything worked fine. However, when …

What is the correct way to track PayPal purchases that use the standard payment button? I see on https://www.x.com/developers/paypal/documentation-tools/paypal-payments-standard/integration-guide/Appx_websitestandard_htmlvariables I can fill out the return and rm parameters, but I read somewhere that it requires the user to click "continue" in their browser *after* the payment has been completed in …

Usually AdSense will give you a reason in the rejection letter, such as the website contains illegal content, etc. What, specifically, does the rejection letter say?

Probably about 10-14 hours on weekdays. Weekends vary from 16 hours to as little as 2-3 hours a day, depending upon whether I want to tackle a weekend project.

Can this not be put into a loop?! What if you created an array of all the fields and then looped through them validating/sanitizing the data?

Well, as you all know, DaniWeb built its rankings by practicing the art of purple hat SEO. :-P

It wasn't intended to be a typo, and I never knew the word could bring this much thought or attention. I never thought much into it. It's just a word in my vocabulary.

This isn't being done because it is too resource-intensive. The number of updates to your watched articles would need to be calculated on every page load. *However* this is something that can be implemented by using our API :) Hint hint.

I assume it's OAuth 2.0. Do you have any experience with OAuth?? I suggest you check out the DaniWeb API. We also support OAuth 2.0, and we have a code snippet demo and example that you might be able to manipulate to work with the Google Marketplace instead.

Do you still see the Edit Post button in Chrome? It's possible that you loaded the page just under the 30 min threshold (I see the post was 24 mins old at the time, according to your screenshot) and clicked to edit the post just after the 30 min threshold.
