Migrate Emails To A New Server Qmail

We migrated from Plesk 8.6 managed server to a new Plesk 9.5 managed server. We migrated all email addresses over and it worked fine when we changed launched most sites. However on a couple sites, we moved the emails over later, manually, and on those sites we can’t send/receive, or

New accounts created work fine on the new server, but old mailnames that I manually copied over to get up to date don’t work.

This problem will apply to 3 sites.

Thanks.

Youtube Search Script

I need to be able to search YouTube by:

– country
– channel
– subscribers
– age
– join date

I’m told that you can use an API like this: http://www.programmableweb.com/api/youtube

There is a particular type of video I’m looking for – the interface doesn’t need to be something that I can vary (although I guess that’d be nice).

I just need to be able to perform the same search repeatedly (every few days).

Ajax Script To Replace Dojo Library On Zend Framework Syste

To improve user interface and user experience of the proprietary Content Management System (CMS),we are seeking to employ a web development specialist to perform various engineering tasks, which will include front end and back end improvements.

The CMS was originally built on PHP4, later migrated to PHP5, and Zend framework. It uses MySQL5 database, all encoding is set to be UTF8, and java script features are based on dojo library.

Project Goal: Allow authorized user activate/deactivate content pieces of different types without reloading the entire page and changing scroll positioning. Dojo library has to be replaced with Ajax scripts.

We are looking for experienced developer to complete this task. The job is with the prospect for long term contract and therefore we are looking for a person who would be interested in the long term co-operation.

Solicitors – Pi / Accident Claim 33 Back Links Link Building

We our looking to have backlinks built to our Clients website.

The website in question is a UK Based Solicitors’ Website, specialising in Personal Injury and Accident Claims.

The aim of the project here is to build 33 Quality Backlinks from pages that have a PageRank of 2-5 (the actual page with the link on, not the site homepage).

The website is UK based. Legal / Law / Solicitors sites or blogs would be ideal.

We have 5 (FIVE) keyphrases that we would like used as the anchor texts in the link building exercise.

The Links must conform to the following requirements.

1. Links must be from from Legal, Law, Health or related websites or blogs.

THE ABOVE IS VITAL, A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT OF THIS PROJECT

2. Links must be live “do follow” links.
3. The pages that the links are placed on must have PageRank of 2 or above.
4. We do not simply want links that are placed in the footer / menu of websites.
5. The links should be placed within natural body content of websites.
6. Links to be sought ethically, and not through farms or automated systems.
7. All links to us will be one-way.
8. All links should be from different domains, on different IP ranges, in different locations.
9. The page the link is sought on must be recently / regularly cached.
10. Link pages must be indexable by search engines, i.e. not behind login / restricted areas.
11. Link building staggered over a period of time
12. A proportion of the links sourced must be from UK websites.
13. Links must NOT be from Directories / Social Bookmarking sites.

WE DO NOT REQUIRE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING, SO PLEASE DO NOT OFFER:

1. NOT REQUIRED: On-Site Optimisation
2. NOT REQUIRED: Directory Listings
3. NOT REQUIRED: Search Engine Submission
4. NOT REQUIRED: Social Bookmarking Links
5. NOT REQUIRED: Article Writing / Submission

We are doing the above 5 things ourselves, and we do not expect to be offered it… This project is for Link Building only.

Upon completion, we will expect a spreadsheet the links sourced, their PageRanks etc.

Payment on completion of process.

The client is looking to have quality fresh links built on a regular basis. The winning programmer will have the opportunity for this future work.

Bidders, confirm that you will build 33 Links, at what cost, and in what time frame.

Jquery Slider & Description Box Fixes

I’m looking for somebody to help me with two fixes in IE.
The site is found at http://eslempowermentprogram.com/intermezzo/

1. The slider description box fades in to full opacity in IE, instead of 60%
2. The description box “jumps” a little once faded in all the way. It is an anti-aliasing issue with the font. I found a solution here, and just need it implemented: http://www.comanswer.com/question/font-anti-aliasing-issues-with-jquery-fadein-in-ie8

Beer Shooting Fridge

beershot.jpg

At first glance this might look like your average beer fridge, one that could possibly be in any dorm room in the country. If you take a closer look (or watch the video after the break) you will see that it’s actually an air cannon powered beer launcher.

A fancy iPhone interface allows the user to choose a beer and load it up in the cannon for delivery. Next, you aim the cannon with the help of it’s built in webcam. When you have chosen your beverage and aimed it in the right direction you click fire.

You better be good at catching, getting hit the head with a full beer being launched from an air cannon will hurt, I promise.

DIY: Snail Mail Notifier

snail_mail.jpg

How did we ever live without push notifications? Email, SMS, IM; we get notified each time one of them is updated. What about our old analog world? Make Magazine show’s us just how we can get push notifications for an older form of mail, snail mail.

This awesome project uses an Arduino to trigger a prowl notification. The project can be adapted for any use like a garage door or door bell. A little electronic know-how is needed and if you want the prowl notifications to work you will need a PHP server. You can do away with the need for a server if you opt to have it send you an email or direct twitter message instead.

Hotlink Prevention In Nginx

hotlink.jpg

Hotlinking, inline linking, leeching, piggy-backing, direct linking or offsite image grabs. No matter what you call it 99% of the time it’s wrong. Bandwidth costs money. I spent sometime over the holidays examining my logs and noticed that there were a ton of sites hotlinking back to images we had posted. Worst of all, most of them were profiting off the images.

Here at tech.nocr.at we run nginx as a front-end proxy to WordPress. Stopping hotlinking in nginx is as simple as adding a small snippet of code in your sites-enabled file. Add the following code inside your server statement.

location ~* ^.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png)$ {
  root   /path/to/webroot;
  valid_referers none blocked server_names ~(yourdomain.com|google.|yahoo.|bing.);
  if ($invalid_referer)  {
  return 403;
  }
}

The above will allow images to be displayed if they come from your domain, google, yahoo and bing. If you have other sites you might want your images to be linked from just add them in the valid_referers statement. If someone tries to hotlink to one of your images they will receive a 403 error. If you wish to have a different image displayed instead of the 403 error, letting them know they are hotlinking, then you must replace the return 403; line with this:

rewrite  ^  http://yourdomain.com/hotlink.jpe;

Notice how the image file ends in .jpe? If it were you end in .jpg it would end up in a loop and never be displayed. Simply create the image you want to use and change it’s extension to .jpe before you upload it to your web host.
