IE7 Problem?

2009-06-25T14:16:00.000-07:00

Hi folks, it appears that drag and drop is no longer working properly in IE7....although it does work correctly in IE8, not sure why is this the case but we're working on the fixes.

IE8 drag n drop problem fixed

2009-06-20T12:13:00.000-07:00

According to my stat, around 35% only2clicks users are using Internet Explorer and 25% of that is now using Internet Explorer 8. With Microsoft pushing browser update through windows update this is obviously not a good news.

We have discovered that drag and drop wasn't working properly in IE8, It was OK in all other browser, but now I can confirm it has been fixed.

We have now moved to the new javascript engine which I will introduce some cool new feature very soon.

Google Friend Connect Bad Idea

2009-02-19T05:02:00.000-08:00

It doesn't take very long at all to get these comments from users who dislike Google Friend Connect, anyway if you are still interested drop me a line or.. perhaps Facebook connect is less intrusive ?

New 'Light' Design

2008-08-13T22:53:00.001-07:00

Recently, speed has been a major issue with majority users. Once your page grew with more than 100 links it takes a while to load. Personally I tried to maintain maximum 12 links per page, but it may be difficult for some users who has hundreds of imported links per category.

What do you think of this new radical 'light' design for Only2Clicks:

Display thumbs only for the top 6 links per category
Vertical Category instead of Horizontal tabs - allowing more categories can be created without messing up with layout.
Text only for the rest of the links

Feedback anyone ?

On her own words:

"I don’t know about you but I collect so many great sites that even my clever little descriptions don’t always jog the old memory. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words and generally I remember the site as soon as I see it. "

"Store all of the links of games and learning sites that your students use throughout the school year. Students won’t have to remember hundreds of web addresses or try to remember the name of their favorite reading website…they will know it when they see it."

Bug Busted

2008-05-14T13:12:00.001-07:00

Recently we've discovered a mysql bug which prevented some group of users to edit links in certain tabs. It's now has been fixed. You will no longer get this error:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1

In the next few days we will continue to monitor this and if you have any problem please report it to support@only2clicks.com .

Server Migration

2008-05-12T08:27:00.000-07:00

Welcome to the new Only2Clicks server !

Over the weekend we've completed server migration, appologize for minor hickups while some of the users see cpanel temporary page while accesing Only2Clicks.com. This is caused by the DNS records that hasn't fully propagated.

The service should be fully up and running by now, some of you might notice a slight speed increase. In the next few days, we are going to do server tweaking to improve it's performance. Feel free to drop any feedback.

Btw if you get this error when editing a link

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1

Thumbnails woes

2008-04-15T15:27:00.000-07:00

I have to admit today is not a good day for only2clicks. Our thumbnails service is currently down again. The service might have just crippling trying to cope with high demands.

It really is a though time, after relying on donations for the last 6 months, I think it's time to get the revenue back on track and I am determine to sort this problem out.
Like all of us, we want to have good reliable service which just 'works'.

Folks, please be patient while we are working on the solution. I promise we'll get there in the end and thank you so much for your feedback and response and support for this little app.
