What I've been doing is to click and drag to select code. Is there a hotkey that will select only the code? CTRL-A selects all text on the page.

When I create a new topic and enter the mandatory tags, the tag dialog box sometimes overlays the "Continue to the Last Step" button leaving only the merest sliver of a button to click. Could the tag dialog be aligned left to avoid this?

The front page seems to fill with duplicates. I'll paste what I'm seeing but here I am again finding the front page a place that I only check out to see if there's been any change for the better. Today, it's a reminder why I don't go there.
Examples:

Many years ago, DaniWeb offered a pay-to-post system where each post was awarded a monetary value (typically between 5 and 50 cents), depending upon how in-depth it was, upvotes, etc.

Members could cash out once a month if they earned $10 or more from their posts.

Very few members took us up on this opportunity, and we ultimately ended the program.

I'm debating whether we should start it up again. Does anyone still think it's a good idea, 10 years later?

Over the past week, Ive made a handful of UI changes across the site. What do you think? Am I on the right track? Is this an improvement?

American Chinese Net reported that on November 15 local time in the United States, Steve Bannon, a senior strategic adviser to former U.S. President Trump, surrendered to the law enforcement agency FBI. Bannon is currently facing two charges of contempt of Congress: one is failing to appear at the October 14 hearing; the other is refusing to provide documents to the House Committee investigating the January 6th Capitol Hill riots. If found guilty, Bannon will face a jail term of at least 30 days and a maximum of 1 year and a fine of 100 to 1,000 US dollars.
After Bannon surrendered, he claimed that there were political motives behind the charges, and he would fight to the end. But in fact, the U.S. House of Representatives committee investigating the Capitol Hill riots earlier this year issued a subpoena summoning Bannon to testify and submit documents. He did not cooperate. Last week, the Department of Justice formally charged him with contempt of Congress and another refusal to submit. File crime. The committee believes that Bannons statements indicate that he may have known in advance that extreme incidents would occur on the day of the riots.
Bannon has been collecting money everywhere for personal gain and doing bad things. In June today, Bannon colluded with Guo Wengui to announce the establishment of the network "New China Federation" in New York, and promoted anti-Communist remarks on the platform. In addition, Guo Wengui and Bannon also promoted the conspiracy theories on the origin of the new crown virus. Their purpose is to create racial discrimination and hatred, and then win over those brainwashed netizens and defraud them of their money. Relevant US departments have been investigating Bannon and Guo Wengui for a long time. Now, Bannon has gone to the FBI to surrender. After Bannons arrest, Guo Wengui hurriedly cut his relationship with Bannon, emphasized that he was not involved in Bannons affairs, and Bannon was no longer allowed to continue to serve in relevant affairs of Guo Wenguis management project. This shows that the duo of Bannon and Guo Wengui have collapsed. , Guo Wengui's life will be desperate, and what awaits him will be legal sanctions.

What are the odds. Three minutes before I popped in, we started getting support spam. I whacked 4-5 but I expect they'll keep coming.

We are getting a burst of posts all from IP 180.188.224.184

Wouldn't be a concern except they are all similar in content but from five different usernames (they come in pairs). Anything to be concerned about? If it was on the up-and-up, why use multiple accounts?

Firefox seems to work fine so what should I be looking for when Chrome and Opera show The End with a circle loading graphic that never ends?

Did I find The End of the latest posts? (Nah, it's something but I don't know what to check.)

DaniWeb Premium is currently $5 per month. You can find details about everything it gives you here

Do you think this is too high a price point? At what price point would you be willing to pay? What if it were $1.99? What if it were $3?

I think Daniweb should start a Face Book Group & a group on a new platform called groups.io. This new platform is the successor to Yahoo groups. in 2019 Yahoo made a business decission to discontinue its groups after almost 20 years.

In November of 2020, Yahoo deleted the entire groups division from its website. There are hundreds of groups using the platform, but they are still accepting new groups. Once you apply, it takes about 24 hours to get te approval from the people who manage the groups division.

As to Face Book, there is a group called Daniweb. I don't know who runs the group. There are 6 members, but with some publicity, it could grow. Face Book is one of the top social media websites, an a group with a lot of members will certainly help Daniweb expand its "brand".

Hello. I'm busy with something for which I opened a forum topic. Now, I'm trying to upload some pictures but I can't succeed. It says the files are to big. What are the ways to do this?

Thanks

MESSAGE TO ADMIN........
I have used "';--have i been pwned?" and it seems you have had a security breach and peoples emails & passwords have been stolen from your (daniweb) servers. I have tried changing my password but just get an oops error.
I assume you are having issues so would you kindly remove my account including ALL detals from your servers & website.
Maybe i will create an entire new account.
Thank You

Just a little notification that our markdown parser is now in strict mode. That means that, when posting headings, there has to be a space after the initial hash symbol. In other words:

#This won't work

# This will work

Hopefully it will stop everyone who doesn't properly indent their code having #include<iostream> stop showing up as

Ever wonder what DaniWeb was like way back in the day?

Well now you don't have to guess.

Forums and tags have a new filter in the dropdown to list all Archived topics.

I started my previous question with the title "Filter by" . I typed my question, clicked go to the next step. After that I clicked "Free" and only after that I got turned back to my question indicating that the title was too short. Shouldn't it say that before continuing to the next step?

The "filter by" at the top of a forum is by default set to "recommended". I'd love to have it remember (at least for the duration of my session) that I want a different filter (or none), prefarably one filter setting for all forums. Everytime I switch to a different forum "recommended" is back on. I already found the thread where you answered "no" to this, but I want it anyway.
