 | I know that there's mention of this date in another thread I started here, but I wanted to draw attention to it. We lost 50% of our traffic on Tuesday, November 20th, 2012, and haven't recovered since. That day I don't believe lines up with a Google Panda algorithm update …  |
| | Please post in our [Job Offers](http://www.daniweb.com/business-exchange/jobs-and-resumes/52) forum. |
 | Elliptical, exercise bike, and treadmill. I *try* to do 30-45 minutes at least three times a week. It's not a lot, but for someone who works at home on the computer, it's just about the only exercise I get. |
 | Theguitarist, there needs to be some type of visual feedback for people to understand how the feature works. How would the system know when you're *done* selecting all your pieces of text? It could be over the course of ten minutes with a five minute break between selections? |
| | Create a portfolio of small mini-projects that can serve a dual role of showing off your skills and also gain some publicity for your "virtual resume". Have each project be something that would attract a widespread audience while at the same time showcasing a different major skill.  |
| | What features do you like or use in other forum systems that you think would be a good fit here on DaniWeb? |
 | I'm not an Opera fan and I really don't want to have to install it. Can someone else please confirm this bug before I'm forced to see for myself? |
| | I've made a handful of changes to member profiles tonight. One of the changes I made was to include little blurbs below Reputation, Post Quality Score, Endorsements and Solved Threads explaining what those statistics mean. Do you think that now member profiles are too wordy and redundant? Is it more …  |
 | I've found that a computer science degree is not very helpful when doing web development. I'm coming from a B.S. in Computer Science and honestly found that there's very, very little that I did in school that has anything remotely to do with the LAMP development / jQuery / etc …  |
 | |
 | Sorry, I didn't see this thread until now for some reason. Bug fixed :) |
| | Ahh, Aitch. I was just about to suggest Quark XPress too. It is actually the #1 program to use for desktop publishing. |
 | I somewhat disagree, deceptikon. I think that being now asked to travel for a week at a time once a month away is excessive, when you were explicitely hired as an in-house developer with no travel required. If I was hired by a company to write code in their main … |
| | Working on a new feature that will accept tutorial submissions. How many of you guys would actually contribute unique tutorials to DaniWeb? :) (Just trying to get a rough idea that will help guide me on how to set this thing up) |
| | How did you get it? Would be great if you could post your solution to help others out! |
 | |
| | Re: Read/new icons Read/New status is computed in real time. There has to be a logic bug somewhere. Hmm, I'll investigate. |
| | If we all knew the easy answer to this question, we'd all be billionaires :) Oh, wait ... I do know the answer ... An awesome, unique idea and good, interesting content that people will want to keep going back to read, tell their friends about, and link to. |
| | Please link me to the thread in question. Does this happen with all threads? What web browser and operating system are you using? |
| | |
| | Never heard of them but their website looks terrible. As bhav123 says, try GoDaddy. They're a huge company and they're good and cheap for small companies who don't need much. |
| | Over the past day and a half, I've worked on generating our own in-house thumbshots service, instead of relying on the commercial product at thumbshots.com for the website screenshots seen when hovering over links and in member profiles. Doing so will save us $500 a month, so that's good news … |

| | There is no minimum number of posts to have a forum signature. At one point in time (a few years ago) there was a minimum of 10 posts, but we found that a lot of people were just spamming or making ten crappy posts just to hit that minimum, so … |
 | Re: member search Currently this is a moderator-only feature, although it really needs to be retooled to work for everybody. (The search results are currently moderator-centric with information about the member's infractions, etc.) Perhaps I'll work on doing that tomorrow. |
| | Re: Ex-Sponsors Firstly, sorry for the downtime over the past 45 minutes. Damn Softlayer :) Secondly, unlike in the past when sponsors got the benefit of no advertising and access to a behind-the-scenes forum while everyone else didn't (nowadays, everyone gets no advertising), pretty much the single most important benefit that you … |
 | |
 | Re: Downtime :( Yeah, one of our web servers is down, and the load balancer is still sending traffic to it. |
 | > Today i just registered an application and on doing back it added another application OAuth key Do you mean you accidentally double-posted when creating an app key? For now, don't worry about multiple keys. There will be an option to delete them in the near future. |
| | That looks like JSON to me. You can convert it to a PHP object using the json_decode() function. $api = file_get_contents('http://themesnmotifs.com/api/wp/f6f60a0e7091a627641f01b9d1dd7536ea4b8496/list_wp'); $api_object = json_decode($api);  |

| | Hey there, thanks for following up. It's great to hear success stories down the line. Always wonder what happens to people! ;) Personally, I would either go straight to the business world, or do a part-time doctoral program while working super hard building up a resume of various projects to … |
| | Re: wordpress A lot of websites nowadays use Wordpress. It's pretty much the de facto standard for PHP-based blogging software nowadays. It's also really customizable. I can't tell you disadvantages because I don't use it myself (because I don't have a blog). But I do know that if you *do* have a … |
| | |
| | I say no 'to' unless you're entire sentence is that you would like to wish a good morning to everyone. |
 | Hi there. Welcome to DaniWeb!!! :) Pardon my curiosity, but where did you hear about us from? :) |
| | |
 | Google AdSense :) I used to use ValueClick banner advertising and the results were about only half as good. |
 | Instead of $_GET[] I think you mean $_REQUEST[]. Also, you don't want to *assign* something there so i'm not sure what you're trying to do with lines 7 and 8. Also you're just getting a blank page because you're using ob_start() which is suppressing output but you're not flushing it …  |
| | > Do I need different Apps for Android, IPhone, etc. Yes, native apps are specific for the operating system, the same way that the same piece of software won't run on a Windows PC and a Mac. > I don't want to get an App for my online store simply … |
| | Noticed a new look for AdSense ads today. *MUCH* cleaner!! Also a very welcome improvement after the email I got last month saying that Google was winding down the custom AdSense code for premium publishers (too hard to manage).  |

| | If you have a good amount of experience with Java, and about a month's worth of experience with C, you should already see the difference between them :) Java is object-oriented while C isn't, for example. IMHO Java is a higher level language while C has better control and direct … |
 | Computer science is a *huge* field, and I think the most important aspect is to first pick what interests you. After all, it's going to be your career! For example, suppose you're interested in web development. We can help you figure out which web dev language is the most marketable …  |
| | We had an issue with our load balancer yesterday which resulted in one of our six web servers sending 404 responses for all requests. Obviously traffic was way down during the outage, but there was no significant recovery after the outage ended. I'm worried that googlebot came to crawl us …  |
| | Well, there's overhead involved simply because DOM mainipulation can be expensive, but that's pretty much what we do @ http://www.daniweb.com/stats/online |
 | Re: Hello everyone You couldn't log in since the new platform?! WTF?! Why didn't you let me know? See guys, I told you that there was an issue with people being able to log in during the platform switch!! ;) |
 | We're encountering issues but haven't pinpointed them down yet. Working on it! |
The End.
