    When i try to login to any slinkset site in Fx 2, i am served the "session expired or invalid" page (with the milk carton)

    other browsers are ok including chrome. just started happening about an hour ago. dont have Fx 3 to see if it is also the case in that one. cleared my cookies to see if something there was conflicting but it still happens.

    Do I need to forward the domain and cname?

    I have domain on godaddy. I followed the instructions - removed the A host - now there is nothing in the A host category. Cname (alias) slinkset.com points to sockittome.info.

    There is no email or anything else associated with the domain.

    Still getting the message "address not found" after 12 hours.

    I have a hosting account elswhere - would I be better off changing the name server to the hosting account first and trying this again?

    Am I missing something? How does "Popular" work?

    It seems different sites are doing different things with Popular. Some seem to list posts in order by most votes over all time (like "top" in Reddit) and others seem to be some algorithm based on votes per amount of time.

    Can I choose a default?

    can you tell us how the algorithm works ?

    sorry if you have explained this somewhere. i was wondering if the time a link is posted is a factor in whether it reach the top. for example on my site i have disabled down-voting for the links. does this mean that in order for a link to move down in rank, it has to be bested by another in up-votes or will it eventually slide in consideration of when it was posted. thanks !

    what happened to the header for the "account" and "user page" ?

    just today i noticed that my header has been removed from the account and user pages. any chance of an option to get it back please ?

    scratch that, it appears to back now so perhaps it was just a bug.

    Anyone know of a tutorial to help set up a domain with Slinkset using Godaddy? I have yet to figure this out.... been working on it for about a day now...

    If I figure it out, I guess I'll put up a tutorial. :D

    Would you pay to be able to host Slinkset directly on YOUR site?

    I am a big fan of Slinkset, but think they are missing out on a big money maker. If they offered the Slinkset scripts for sale I would definitely buy a license right this moment.

    My suggestion is have two options - a single site license and a developer license for unlimited sites. I would pay a similar price something like this:

    $75 for single site license
    $175-$250 for unlimited site license

    I'd want free updates whenever new versions are released.

    Main reason I want to host this myself is more control and hopefully more locations to put advertising (besides the sidebar). Other reason is it seems that a Slinkset generated site would rank better in Google if hosted in this manner.

    So, I would pay.... anyone else out there in the same boat?

    :)

    how to center your logo and make your title and sub-title unseen using css

    this is not a query, just help for anyone who might have such a query. for my slinkset site at least i wanted to center the logo+banner and remove the title and sub-title from view as they were already drawn in my banner so what i did was first edit the css to center the image using....

    .title-bar .logo img {
    display: block;
    margin:0px auto;
    }

    and then i moved the title and subtitle off the page using....

    .title-bar .title, .title-bar .sub-title {
    position:absolute;
    left: -10000px;
    }

    the reason i used this method instead of display:none is that i want search engines to pick up on it. i could also have just matched the color of the font to the background image, say white on white but likewise it has been said that some search-engines notice this and think you are trying to game their results and penalize you for it. also using the above method, makes it accessible for screen-readers and html only browsers.

    if anyone finds anything wrong with the above code, let me know. read a book on css 6 months ago but then went in another direction so i have not been practicing and im no expert. hope its useful to someone.

    How do I do a good .htaccess redirect?

    Currently I am redirecting using an .htaccess redirect, that reads like this, but it breaks on logins (can interact anonymously, but no users)

    Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^myslinksetsite.com$ [NC]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.myslinksetsite.com/$1 [R]

    # change [R] to [R=301,L] when done troubleshooting

    Google Webmaster

    You need to confirm your domain with them by uploading a specific webpage or meta tag in the header. Similar to the analytics code, all that would be needed is provide the webpage code or the webpage name.

    I realize I could unpoint my domain from here, but I dont want to have to do that. I think many people would appreciate this feature and its very simple! If you can't add it - could you manually help me out?

    Wrong thumbnails

    The autothmubnails tend to show thumbnails which are not related to the specific blog article I'm linking to.

    Examples:

    http://news.helpedia.org/links/Utopia_wird_25_000_Die_Speed_Dating_Deutschland_Tour?c=0

    or

    http://news.helpedia.org/links/Kostenlose_Google_AdWords_f%C3%BCr_gemeinn%C3%BCtzige_Organisationen?c=0

    Until that is fixed I would like t have the option to only link to thumbnals manualy (no autothumbnails). In addition it would be good to have the option of an extra checkbox with regard to the thumbnail with customizable text (needed for German copyright law).

    Hiding the description on the "popular" page

    I am sure that there was a way of doing this. But I couldn't find it. Help?

    I am reasonable proficient with css (at least enough to hide a div), but I haven't found a way of differentiating between popular/recent pages & the item pages.

    Valid emails shown as invalid

    Using a private slinkset page I tried to invite a friend with an email like example_@example.com. Unfortunately it didn't work since I was told "contains an invalid email". This is the guys regular email though and it is definitely valid!

    Why do not all of my links change colour? (socialpreneur.slinkset.com)

    I changed the font colour for my link titles, can you tell me why only some of them are blue and the rest are grey?

    I tried to change the template to another colour, save and go back to the original template so it would default back to the original but this does not work either.

    Ideas?

    I want Google AdSense

    I really want to run google adsense on my site, http://theregularpeople.com, in the sidebar, which I have... but since it's in an iFrame google can't really pick up on the actual content of the page. I've tried some workarounds without too much success as you will notice the ads aren't super relevant.

    There should be a better ad solution!
