Telekom Probleme?
@deutschsprachige Nutzer und an alle Telekom-Kunden

Hat jemand auch im Moment Schwierigkeiten mit dem DSL Anschluss?
Seit heute kann ich auf diverse Seiten nicht mehr zugreifen, diese Seiten wechseln auch von Zeit zu Zeit, im Moment zum Beispiel:
http://github.com
http://dkb.de

Ich habe bereits alle Geräte wie Router etc. neu gestartet, dann habe ich alternative DNS-Server eingestellt, auch das hilft nicht. Ich frage mich, wie so ein Fehler überhaupt zustande kommen kann.
Jetzt wollt ich einfach mal hören, ob vielleicht noch andere Telekom-Kunden auch Probleme haben.

Ich nutze einen DSL 16+ Anschluss im Entertain-Paket.

@Markus I. Da wird 'Nazi' im Englischen fast schon gleichbedeutend mit 'Pedant' verwendet. Grammatikalisch perfekt wäre "whom" - klingt aber gestelzt. "Who" klingt natürlicher, ist aber (streng genommen) inkorrekt. Deshalb hatte sich David gleich selbst als #grammarnazi bezeichnet, weil er die korrekte Version anmahnte. Ist ein Umgang mit dem Wort 'Nazi', der sich Deutschen ein bisschen schwer erschließt. ;-)

Feature Request - Groups in Contact Overview
@Friendica Developers @Friendica Theme Developers

Okey, I know I'm annoying, but I have collected some ideas I wanted to share with you xD

Don't know if this is Theme Developing or Core:
Would be nice to have an option to seperate group/community contacts from normal contacts. That could be realised with a "sort" option in the contact manager and even be shown seperately on your profile (so not like the "Community pages" in diabook only for your eyes, but also in the public profile - opt-in of course)

Expiring Posts
@Friendica Support @Friendica Developers

I wonder what it means to (globally) expire posts in detail.
Posts with a "star" are not affected, am I right?
What about "filed" posts, are these also deleted? Because I think that wouldn't make sense, because if you make the effort to file an item, you probably want to keep it.
Maybe there could be a setting for this, if there are people who really want to expire ALL posts on a server (like a testserver)

Feature Request - Global Directory
@Friendica Developers

I just saw the new "automatic search terms" in the global directory.
It would be great if they could be used for only community profiles, too (i.e. seperated from the global directory with both people and groups)
I imaginge this shouldn't be much of a problem for whoever implemented this feature.

My little personal Friendica server on Uberspace.de is open for registration!
I don't want to be listed in the public directory, because I don't want to host a lot of users (yet) - but if you just want to join the community, use addons like the Facebook connector that others can't give you, and get updates on a daily basis, feel free to join!

Of course I will also help you with installing a server on your own, or introduce you to people who can help!

By the way: I'm from Aachen, a city in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.

What do you think about those for hosting a Friendica Server?

Enough CPU speed, enough RAM (for how many users)? Anything missing?

Cubox: http://www.solid-run.com/products/cubox
SheevaPlug/DreamPlug: http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/t-products.aspx
Raspberry Pi: http://www.raspberrypi.org/

I would love to buy one of those sooner or later and experiment with installing Friendica, but if you can tell me right away, that something is missing on one of them, that would help me a lot!

Since the last update (to the onepoll.php) @Fabian Dost and I get these Errors in the cronjob:

PHP Fatal error: Cannot break/continue 1 level in /var/www/virtual/marmor/html/include/onepoll.php on line 224


We are both Uberspace users, don't know if that makes a difference.

Any ideas on that? What has changed in the onepoll.php?

Banner Contest
@Friendica Day
Just wanted to reshare this question from a comment, as it probably got lost in the stream, but I really would like some opinions about it:

Should the contest START at Friendica Day and then last for example one week? Or should the "award ceremony" take place on this day?
I would say, give people a week for submission of pictures (to a Banner Contest group) and then another 3 days of "liking" submissions, after that the winner is published and gets the Friendica Server admin information.

And in addition:
Should I post some example banners of my own (I already have made some) or should I wait for the contest to finish? Maybe some examples could fire the participant's imagination.
Martin Farrent

@Markus I. Awards on Friendica Day, I'd say.

Example banners would be great - especially yours, I would imagine.
Markus I.

So I should probably get this started in a few days! I will make a (temporary) group for this contest, so there will be all the details, examples, reference images and people who want to contribute connect to the group. Then I will open it for submissions a week and some days before Friendica Day, then close it after a week and give people some days to like the best contributions. On Friendica Day the one with the most likes will then get the account infos of a Server on Uberspace!

I have to test some group/posting functions to see how to practically do the opening/closing of submissions...
Any further ideas are welcome!

I just did a git pull a few minutes ago (there was some change in the #jappixmini plugin), and after that I only get an "Error" down there in the chat button.
I already restarted my firefox and cleared the cache.
Any ideas?

They locked my FB account today, warning that someone had been trying to access it from Paris. So I changed the password, re-authorised Friendica, Wordpress and Twitter, changed the FB password in Jitsi, Pidgin and two iOS XMPP apps, did a full row of tests... and then it dawned on me.

I'm a total twerp. I had switched to the Jappix BOSH server to try FB chat with the plugin. And where is that server? ;-)

Since I saw a post about Ghostery (Firefox addon) here on Friendica, I use it on all computers.
Now I am shocked to see, that it found some "Facebook Social Graph" here on Friendica!! How can this be? Is it inside a post from Facebook maybe?

If your friends are determined to make sure something nasty ends up in your network, then no software can mitigate it completely.

We need more education of people who enjoy being spied on, and we need to frown more prominently at people who really should know better.

And we need an alternative to YouTube.

Obviously the problem comes with the " " after href=

Could there also be a security issue in this?

Banner Contest
@Friendica Day

I will create some "Find me on Friendica" Banners and/or Avatars that will be presented on Friendica Day!
And this just occured to me:
What about a Picture/Banner contest, where anyone can post Friendica-advertising pictures and the best one will be chosen (by count of likes?) on Friendica Day.
As a prize I would create a Uberspace-Friendica-Server and put some 5 € on its account (that's 5 months of maintaining the server for free, when you are greedy :D)
What do you think?
Maybe the contest idea can be used for other things, too!

@Thomas Willingham @Mike
I just got an API Key for the Facebook connector from Thomas and inserted it into the .htconfig.php (like it was said in the plugin help file) and it worked, I saw my test posts from Facebook, but now I lost my ability to go into the admin settings of my own server!!
The button in the menu is not available and when I visit /admin it just says "Logout"

PLEASE HELP!

This is the kind of thing I was talking about when I talked about it being potentially hard to work out whose fault any problems are the other day.

Yeah, completely right. In the long term this is of course not the best solution. So when I really start inviting friends from facebook over to my server, I will get my own API key, but now I only wanted to check out the connector to see what it is capable of ;)

@all-the-server-admins-with-facebook-connector :D
Did you really all give away your cellphone number or credit card to approve your facebook account? I thought I could use a fake one just for the API Key to make the Facebook connector possible on my server. But thats not so easy...
Any ideas? I certainly won't give Facebook any of my personal data xD
and trash-sms.com isn't available anymore, simser.info only offers one number and that one was already used to approve a account -.-

I had left FB for well over a year and had to re-register just to get an app key and write the initial Facebook connector. Once I "finished" (software is never finished) the connector I turned it off on my own site.

I don't recall exactly when, but I've since turned it back on (software is never finished) and I use it to communicate with old friends. Mostly on my terms - I can always see what they're doing and I comment on rare occasions.

But in response to the initial thread, I gave them my (real) cell phone number. It was the least dangerous of the two options. I suppose they can text me, but they can't leak my credit card info through a bug. I'm not that concerned that they know I'm a real person and live south of Sydney - that information is freely available. Their login cookie tracking (which is scattered all over the web) is much more dangerous IMO than having my cell provider info.

If a government wanted to monitor my phone, they already have access to that info. They don't need Facebook.

@Fabio Comuni or @Mike
In the /mod/admin.php some Strings are missing the t() function for translation.
For example
"Maximum size in bytes of uploaded images. Default is 0, which means no limits."

Would be great if you could update these, then we can start translating ;)
Thanks!

@Mike and others:
Is there a way to have a different Logo/Text in the top navigation bar depending on what template is used? Would this even be possible? Because some templates (like dispy) have very much space there, which could be used for a neat little banner, others only have space for a word or two.

thanks in advance!

Nochmal ne Frage in die Runde:
Kann man eigentlich die Anzahl der Beiträge im "Netzwerk" reduzieren (also, die auf einer Seite angezeigt werden), weil mein Browser irgendwie jetzt schon total überlastet is, wenn ich auf Netzwerk bin. Oder liegt das etwa an meinem Server (uberspace)?
