Meta DaniWeb

On the endorsements, i noticed that i have several endorsements on C# and Java and i was wondering if they should show up in the "Favorite Places to Post" section? Also the count is still off, it shows that i have 18 on the bottom of [the web design](http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/web-design-html-and-css/15) section …

I am receiving such annoying PM from mvmalderen.This must be either through Post in feedback not through PM. If you want to give suggestions give through thread. > Reply to this post as a PM to avoid further thread pollution. > > first of all i don't sit 24 hours …

I just noticed that my posting level went from "Poster in Training" (or something like that) to "Junior Poster". Is there a list around of the requirements for what posting level title?

What would be the chances of seeing a IRC client embedded into a page on the site? I would happily sit on the chat most days at work however it's normally blocked by our internal proxies and thus it would be nice to have a direct way to actually access …

Chaps I think there might be an issue here, I have just posted something http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/java/threads/449524/building-a-simple-airline-reservation-system-exercise and it looks like it posted it twice. I am fairly sure I didn't press submit twice, so I am not sure what's going on. thanks

The docs page for the DW API is off in IE10 (Win8), in Opera it works fine. Screenshot attached. 

Not sure if it just me but when using google chrome on iPad I cannot seem to up or down vote posts, the arrows seem to just be a graphic and non functional. Any ideas why this would be?

For some odd reason, the private messages button indicates that i have 1 unread article. I visit the page and notice that it appears still even though i have nothing unread. It appears that way on all my browsers on each of my computers.

It's me *again* ;) The other day the endorsement counts of high-level forums ("Hardware & Software", "Software Development", "Web Development", etc.) caught my attention. Here's a screenshot of the endorsements strip shown above the page footer of the Software Development forum. If I hover over an avatar (in this case …

Just a quick query regarding sponsoring the site, is there a way to cancel the sponsorship if we needed to financially etc?

Attached image shows funny layout in top stats on IE10 and Opera on Win8 (both metro and desktop). 

Two article titles [here](http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/cpp/8) are still in the list.

There is a browser issue with this fixed footer.Look in both images.The IE one doesn't contain **AD:web based bug tracking - adminTrack.com** .when user is not logged in. **LOG: FB.getLoginStatus() called before calling FB.init().** // is also shown in chrome and mozilla **Object required:http://b.voicefive.com/c2/10378794/rs.js**   Also there …

I have noticed a problem with advertisements on Daniweb, sometimes when scrolling they seem to 'break free' off their places. If I scroll down the page, or scroll up the page they move around, sometimes moving to the left and blocking the question, sometimes moving over the navigation bar etc. …

Is PFO down permanently or just for some other reason?

Was on the badges page and reading the text. >In exchange for showing your support, we'll return the favor by linking back to your website automagically. Is `Automagically` a typo by any chance or some new fangled word we are using?

I thought of a feature that could be added which I think maybe helpful. You can add an indicator on how many watched articles are commented on, or the bullets show up purple. Just like the amount of PM's you get, you can do one for the watched articles... I …

For some odd reason, parts of the site like awkward. For example, the community center button is flying off the menu (right under the hardware & software menu) and the top stats chart is displaced. You may need to look at it, I may not seem clear.

Before I start, I'm afraid I have to say I cannot reliably reproduce this, but it has happened to me twice today. When replying to a post I press the button to confirm, the button disappears, replaced by the "Watch This Thread" button, however, the post is not submitted. The …

I was trying to edit a post that I made earlier, and the "Edit Post" link brought up the text edit mode, but did not have any "Save" or "Submit". Only "Cancel". Also, the "Edit Post" button was still active. When I clicked it the second time it just "refreshed" …

I know there are plenty of other places to get info or code snippets for **microcontroller programming** (especially **arduino**). Out of all the boards/sites I visit, I like the **DaniWeb** format the most. I was wondering if a **microcontroller** or **arduino** section could have a home here. Or would that …

While checking last_post timestamp in the returned json, I noticed a discrepancy of around 5 hours of the 'now' time and a 'just posted' time. AFAIK unix timestamp is UTC - so constant and timezone independent. Are DW timestamps modified to EST or have I messed up **again** with my …

Ok, in response to this post: http://www.daniweb.com/community-center/daniweb-community-feedback/threads/447545/we-have-an-api-/14#post1938157 Regarding the output of http://jsonviewer.stack.hu/#http://www.daniweb.com/api/forums/descendants Go to viewer and look at array item 4 Also array item 5 -> items 5, 6. Looks odd.

Realtime Member Activity Stream of Daniweb is not working at present. It is showing old logs.

[coding virus using vb script .vbs](http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/visual-basic-4-5-6/threads/294413/coding-virus-using-vb-script-.vbs) Granted it is pretty pathetic, but some fool is looking for help to run the code shown.

When i am looking at an old article/thread, why is it that i see this message: > This article has expired from our marketplace I was viewing this from my posts voted up page, and for some odd reason i can't see a thread that is 5 months old but …

Has anybody else noticed that the top navigation bar between is a bit broken? I see the Community Center below Hardware & Software. The menu still works fine. Is it just me?

I had real problems logging in on DW today. Tried several PC's and clearing the cache etc. I finally had to reset my password to be able to login. Was I banned without me knowing, or is this a bug?

It's broken again. I've completely cleared the cache and still there are no text entry/browse buttons.

Hi, I'm creating a tutorial + repository website where the tutorials are free for the public to look at but the repository is not. However I am developing a login system that I want to sync with daniwebs login system. I have developed a curl system where the user can …

I noticed that when I mark something as spam (by flagging it), the options it displays are basically duplicates, for example "spammer" would display twice.... I may be a bit confusing on that.... I also noticed that (unless it was meant to happen) whenever i log out, i see a …

This issue is easiest explained by a screenshot:  The title of the [thread](http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/web-design-html-and-css/threads/64334/help-on-clear-text-in-input-) linked to contains the `<input>` starttag: *Help on clear text in **<input>** !!*. I'm wondering what would happen if someone inserted an `<img>` tag in a thread title... **Edit:** Perhaps the solution is not to …

Hello, I'm mostly active in the Java forums these days, and often I find the desire to link to a method in the Java API, but the markdown syntax doesn't seem to handle the URL format quite well. Here's an example of a URL that I was recently trying to …

Might be my connection / browser, but the navbar at the top of the page with categories has today gone two lines! Community Centre is under Hardware and Software pushing 'where we are' to the right, there seems to be a blank rectangle next to Business Exchange now.

I realized something just now. A few months ago. I post a question regarding about stats and I think **Dani** mention she has no intention of doing this at all. Even the Gravatar was done within a few minutes last night. What is the benefit of having this now? For …

Hello I know threads are problably better just left (even if solved/closed) but I think it would be nice to be able to delete our own threads. If we post a custom algorthim (for example, this is a exageration) to the meaning of life, we wouldnt like other people to …

What exactly is "OP Kudos"? I thought it was when you vote up the OP of a thread but that doesnt seem to be the case...

Gravatar is getting really popular, may sites like stackoverflow or github have incorporated the avatars. It would be nice to have a consistent avatar throughout all forums and sites.

Are gravatars new now? I just noticed them being on every user that didn't have an avatar and (i saw it on LastMitch's account first)....

I think I just messed up my signature. It was the same for several years: it had the anchor text I wanted and hot-linked to my website. It was pretty much just how I wanted it. However, I just made a small punctuation change and now my hot-linked anchor text …

I don't know if this has been raised before or if the folder images on the left of the main page are supposed to do this but I clicked on the folder image to the left of "C#" and the folder turned grey but didn't take me to the C# …

I erroneously uploaded an image to this thread: http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/php/threads/446683/database-forms-how-to-protect-with-magic-quotes I deleted the markdown in the post, which cleared the image from the post body, but it still has the image in an 'attachment box'. Is this expected?

This is not really a problem to me, but may be a bug. On odd occasions the icons net to the forum posts change at will! This may be my connection, or something else. An example: This morning I scanned through the PHP forum, and there were about ten posts …

Hi, I got help from a member about a problem I had with mySQL.I wanted to thank him so I tried to reply but I get a form requesting username, password email etc and then if I submit it I get a message saying that that name is already taken, …

So what are the checkmarks about? Seems to be only in the Community Center topic. 

I am used to seeing the categories such as Tutorials, Interviews, Code Snippets, etc at the top of the thread lists. I recently posted some code in the VB.NET forum showing how to used parameterized queries to avoid SQL injection. I wanted to categorize it as a tutorial but my …

Had an idea. How about an automatic page refresh when a post is submitted? This would allow a poster to see posts that were submitted at close to the same time, and maybe re-word his or her response.

Dear Daniweb, I am facing a problem with daniweb forum, it keeps crashing randomly (only when I am browsing the website, if I am not on the website tab or not moving the mouse, nothing happens). I am using firefox mozilla OS: UBUNTU and WIN7 (same computer partition: ubuntu 14 …

Help!, I did some houekeeping in firefox and deleted all cache, history, cookies etc, and now when I try to go to Member Login, nothing happens. I notice that when I mouse over the 'Member Login ' link the status bar at the bottom of firefox shows `www.daniweb.com/#` I thought …

Hello! I'm having the following problem: I've logged into my acount (this one I'm using now) and noticed that there where a new facebook integration, but haven't found anyway to add it to my account. So, a few moments ago I've made the mistake of logging in with facebook and …
