 | Sorry, Scribbller, but I will have to disagree. When everyone was complaining that the webmaster forums / computer forums industry was oversaturated, and were all screaming "niche forums!", I decided to take the plunge and do non-niche forums with DaniWeb. I think if done right, you could encompass everything (such … |
 | QuickBooks or PeachTree - which would be best for managing an Internet business such as DaniWeb? |
| | Re: site promotion There's really no "do this and then this and then traffic will pour in". More than anything else, it takes a lot of work, drive, motivation, and determination. For a social networking site, check out our Building a Community forum for some ideas. Read around. |
| | Re: Adverts? New questions should always be in the format of new threads. It is against our rules to post your question twice as well as posting a new question as a reply to an existing thread. A moderator will most likely delete duplicate threads or move your post if you posted … |

| | Currently DaniWeb uses both image verification during registration in addition to requiring new members to click a link that is sent to them via email upon registration. If the user doesn't click the link within 7 days, their account is permanently suspended. Additionally, if DaniWeb tries to send out a … |
| | Hi, Due to conversations that have been going on in the Area 51 forum for quite some time, as well as in our IRC channel, I have decided to make reputation no longer count within the Coffee House category. To quote Davey in Area 51, "reputation is meant to be … |
| | The number of pageviews to my site has been constant for quite some time. (Or rather, steadily increasing day by day). For some reason, the number of pageviews to my site doubled today! According to my referral stats, the same number of people come in through other sites as always. … |
| | Re: iPhone I, yes I, just got an iPhone and I'm very happy with it. I migrated to AT&T / iPhone just yesterday from Verizon Wireless and a Treo 700W (Windows Mobile smartphone). I am a little pissed that I can't synch my contacts or email because the iPhone isn't compatible with … |
 | Computer engineering doesn't really deal much with computer hardware (i.e. motherboards, processors, etc.). It is more of a cross between electrical engineering and computer science. Be prepared for a lot of discrete math and digital circuitry. If you're an electronics freak, go for it :) |
 | I've fixed this bug. Thank you for pointing it out! :)  |
| | Re: rss reader Check out MagpieRSS. It makes it *very* simple to incorporate RSS feeds into a PHP-driven site. |
 | Re: Thumb shots I hate to be so blunt ... however, I've found that Opera consistantly does not follow XHTML/CSS standards and a very small percentage of the DaniWeb audience uses that browser. Additionally, I am not a fan of Opera at all, having used it a few years back, and therefore don't … |
| | I used to send plain text emails to members, and they were a big hit. I just started sending HTML emails out, but I found that many of them got caught in junk mail filters. Are there any particular things to look out for when writing HTML emails to not … |

 | Hi. We run one Apache box and one MySQL box right now. Both machines are 1.8 ghz dual core dual opterons with a couple of gigs of ram. |
| | Does googlebot spider IFRAME tags? Do they actually follow the URL as if it were a link? Or do they spider the contents of the IFRAME as if it were part of the included page? Unlike JavaScript, there is no client-side parsing that needs to be done with IFRAMEs. Just …  |
 | I agree that it should be a priority to not lose a new DaniWeb member. Sure - they may initially come just to get their one question answered. But if it is a good experience for them, they will return or tell their friends. If their first experience is a … |
| | I am not an EE user but I was under the impression that the "experts" don't get paid. Instead, from what I understand, someone asks a question. Then, multiple people respond to the question. The person who asked the question then chooses which reply was the most helpful to them, …  |
| | Hmm, computer science is a lot more than programming. There is a lot of math and theory behind it. The main differences between computer science and computer engineering are that comp. engineering also includes more digital circuitry and electrical engineering than comp. sci. does. |

| | I use Zend PHP Studio. If you buy the full version, it's a PHP-based IDE with built-in server: there are Windows and Mac versions. Of course I use it because I develop in PHP nearly fulltime, but you might not want the expense if you're just playing around. |

| | Obviously your header doesn't look the way it's supposed to. I'm attaching a screenshot of what it's supposed to look like. I take it your LOGOUT link wraps around to the next line? |
| | My SEO hack ... Create a Google sitemap (On DaniWeb, I've written my own sitemap script, but I believe that there's a plugin version on vbulletin.org) ... Other than that, vBulletin is pretty seo-friendly out of the box.  |
| | What have you found to be the best frequency cap for banner campaigns? I heard that it takes, on average, someone four views of a banner ad before they will click on it. |

| | As of right now, this feature isn't available. The primary purpose of blog entries are to be industry news, for which I don't think it's a priority to be able to include image attachments. In the long term, I am thinking attachments will be available, but it is a low … |
 | Re: Gray Reputation > And can the comment box be a required field when giving reputation? Why? Sometimes I just want to give someone kudos for a good post without having anything more to say. Overall, the simpler it is to give rep, the more accurate it will be in the long run, …  |
| | I'm not too happy with Overture. I just don't like the fact that it takes a few days for them to improve keywords, and I find their entire interface to be very clunky. In addition, there is a $0.10 minimum per click. I am a heavy AdWords user, and usually …  |
| | Josh, I seriously think it's a bad idea to invest all of your savings in the stock market. If you want to do that, at least take half and put it into a high yield CD or money market. I trade technology stocks, primarily up and coming companies that I'm …  |
| | Hi ... welcome to DaniWeb. You should have received a private message with a link to our introductory how to guide, but you can also find it by clicking the FAQ link at the top of the page (above the banner ad). So ... what brings you to DaniWeb? |
 | With mods such as removing session IDs and using mod_rewrite to rename your forum and thread pages with .html extensions, I see no reason why phpBB can't be just as SEO friendly as vBulletin. I don't think that it's realistic to expect that if you switch to vB tonight, miraculously … |
 | It's a simple conditional that if you're a registered member and you don't have the ability to use the quick reply box, then it's assumed it's because you haven't activated your account yet. I was too lazy to factor in closed threads but I'll do so as soon as I … |
