Spreadsheet for keeping track of daily deposits

This was requested on the forum. Hardly seems worth charging over. It is set up for 10 accounts. It gives you a place to type in debits as they are taken from your Niteflirt account, and to check them off when they show up in your bank account. It even totals up your debits for the day and months.

Email Templates

I cleaned out the old email templates and made a few new ones here. I can probably rework the old ones and make them work better than ever, in about the same time it would take to create them new, of course. So that may happen, or I may just make shiny new ones.

Niteflirt upgrade most frequently asked questions

Q: Where is my callbutton? I can’t see my callbutton in my listing, I can’t see it in the category indexes! Nobody can call me, I won’t get any calls!
We have never been able to see our own callbuttons in our listings while logged in except in the ‘edit preview’ mode. Now we are also unable to see them in the category indexes. Everyone can see them but you. To see them, log off and look again. If you have another account, log into it and you will see it, too.

 

You can’t call yourself, so you don’t need a callbutton to click. That callbutton being missing from the category index makes it easier for you to find your listing’s position, too.

Q:I keep getting calls and missing them even though I’m on a call already!
The old call status used to go into ‘busy’ well in advance and stay that way. This one goes in at the last minute and comes out when the customer is adding money. Sometimes it doesn’t go into busy at all, or resets itself to available even if you are still on the call (and ultimately correctly credited).

 

The solution is simpler than the explanation. Shut off your account when you start a call, and it will stay off until the call has ended and you turn it back on.

Q: The new callbuttons don’t change from available when you take a call!
Nope, they don’t. This is a major issue, because the callbutton is static. The code they give you permanently reflects the status you were in when you took it. The system will put through calls to you if someone clicks a button that says you are “available” even if you actually are not, and you will miss them. Somebody messed up when they were designing the code. It is going to be a big deal for them to fix it.

 

The only thing you can do is to not use the callbuttons. Instead link to your homepage or to a listing you would want them to call. The callbuttons Niteflirt displays on your account will correctly show your account status. See that button in my sidebar? It is always live. I am on 24/7 and only flirts see this button, so it’s not a big deal for me.

Whatever you do, don’t put callbuttons into your listing! They will see buttons that say you are both unavailable and available and click the available one.

Q: I can’t tell what account or listing the call is coming in on!
Pick an account (I used a slow one) and add a listing from each of your accounts to your favorites. Keep that page open. When a call comes in, after you click ‘1′, refresh the page until it shows one as ‘busy’.

Changes to Niteflirt

I don’t think there are any customers reading this, but if you are a customer, upcoming changes in Niteflirt are being designed to be invisible to you, so I wouldn’t worry about it. You can still call your favorites, and the category indexes should work exactly the same way.

This is for flirts who have not been reading the flirt forum. Niteflirt is going to be upgrading their code, in order to give us a new platform – eventually. They are going to be integrating it in stages. For flirts, some features will be missing for months. In the end, we will probably have more features. But meanwhile, I suggest every flirt go to the Niteflirt forum and read about it, ASAP.

New free script for quick availability changes

Does the fact that you have multiple accounts mean that you’re always struggling to change your availability on the others when you get a call on one, and missing calls and losing points?

Hypnotic Guy has a new free script you can use to help you sign in and out quicker. It requires a website which is php/CURL extension enabled. Unfortunately, that probably means that Godaddy’s out, but any other real webhost should work for it. It won’t work if your “website” is a hosted blog. Sorry, you need a real website. You will also need to be able to edit files, change filenames, and use ftp to put files on your server.

But anyway, here’s what it looks like. Click the link below the picture to go to his site and download. You can even click one of his buttons and give him a donation.

Go now!

 

It does say something about this in the directions…but you need to upload all the files to a password-protected directory on your server. You may not have done this before, but it’s a good thing to be able to do. I can help you with it if Dreamhost is your host. Otherwise, look through your admin area or panel. If you don’t find it, contact tech support. They’re used to hearing this question, and they probably have an answer all ready for you.

HTML: headings and subheadings

Headings, Titles

Heading sizes are numbered. The lower the number, the larger the size. You want to use headers rather than changing font size for your titles, as search engines look for header text first when deciding what is most important on your page. I can’t demonstrate very well on this page what the different default sizes look like, as my blog theme has changed the defaults, so I’ll use an image.
Here’s how you write them:

Header 1: <h1>Header 1</h1>
Header 2: <h2>Header 2</h2>
Header 3: <h3>Header 3</h3>
Header 4: <h4>Header 4</h4>
Header 5: <h5>Header 5</h5>
Header 6: <h6>Header 6</h6>

And here’s how they look:

Here’s a sample listing:

Let’s format the listing

There is a heading at the top of the listing. We’ll make it an <h1> header.
Here’s what it looks like before in the listing and the edit window:

Here’s what it looks like after:

There are a couple of subheaders lost in the text. I’ll make them <h3> headers.
Before:

After:
