A bit can be an object?

I think she means this thread that went downhill because of a reply like that.

Consider it moved

That's a nice list! We should start one of these threads...

If you are getting clicks from places other than you targeted, I'd start with that first personally. Are you seeing that from FB Insights or GA?

TBH, I'm not sure what the SiNaN mod does differently than the one we brewed up (in fact SMF got their panties in a wad when we tried to submit ours a long time ago.) However, we pretty much just check against the post information in a loop within the template and add a CSS class if it is solved.

What do you consider as a fraudulent click?

Soooo.... you answered your own question then, no? Take a look into scopes. In this case, no. Again, take a look at scopes. It is a regular variable... within the function's scope. PS - Trying and fiddling with things like this is a great way to learn it. Do you have a local sandbox to test stuff like this in?

Usually a couple of days

Mr. DavidAM, enjoy your shiny new green badge! You've earned it

Yeah, we had discussed something like that, and tbh it is still on the table. The only reason we haven't implemented it yet is because 99% of the copy to clipboard scripts use flash in order to copy it.

I'm going to end this thread before we digress anymore. The original post has been solved thus we are now going off-topic. PS - I'd really love to meet some of the gurus you know someday.

Set your account to no password in the sudo file would be the easiest (and laziest) fix.

@xyph - Mainly to make sure that we didn't miss anything (odd URLs, redirect stops working, etc.) So far it seems okay @Maq - thanks, I also love minimalistic designs and we plan to keep it that

Man, this is spot on

Now with even shorter slugs (5 chars) due to popular request

Hey guys - awjudd and I finished up round one of our URL shortener and are looking for feedback / testers. Right now it is pretty basic, but that's pretty much the goal for the site: minimalistic. The site: lnked.me Current features: Shortens URLs! Upcoming features: User accounts (view your previous shortened URLs) API for widgets / browser extensions Analytics on your URLs (how many people viewed, where are they from, etc.)

Vista and above has the built-in snipping tool which is very handy.

In almost every case I've seen, the company has owned the patent/copyright/etc. For new hires, there is almost always a clause saying "we own everything you do while you work for us if it is even remotely relevant to the company" - which sucks sometimes Given that he was a former owner though, I'm sure something would be worked out.
