- HulleysAsked on February 11, 2017 at 05:43 AM
I have been looking for a way to validate a Jotform field against a valid list held in Excel or similar. Looking at the support answers, it seems that this is not possible.
I am new to Jotform and have so far been very impressed with the functionality of the product. However, if you cannot check an external table to check validity, then this is a gaping hole in the product. Are then any plans to introduce this function in future releases ?
Kind Regards
Ian Hulley
- CharlieAnswered on February 11, 2017 at 09:53 AM
Unfortunately, we do not have a feature or functionality that would allow you to lookup a database or an excel file and use it for validation.
However, this is possible using the form's full source code. If you are a developer or a programmer, you can download the full source code here: https://www.jotform.com/help/104-How-to-get-the-Full-Source-Code-of-your-Form. You can then edit the source code and create your custom script wherein you can connect to a database or a file or a specific list then do validations on inputs.
If you are familiar with APIs, then you can check this guide: http://api.jotform.com/docs/. You can pull existing submission data and use it for validation or any advance customization that you may need.
We do have some simply ways where you can do validation input, although if the list of items you have as a lookup ranges to hundreds or thousands, then this simple solution would not work. The possible solution solution I mentioned is by using Conditional Logic: https://www.jotform.com/help/57-Smart-Forms-Using-Conditional-Logic.
Here's an example form: https://form.jotform.com/70413851204951.
1. Here's my sample conditional logic:
2. Condition states that if the "Input" text box contains value from the list "red,blue,green,yellow,black", then show the static text "Input color is on the list".
3. You can try my form and input some text there to see how it will behave.
I hope that helps.

(5pm) Glondorf determines that Aktuh (Black circle with White X) is the one who tried to mark him. The group decides to heal up and spend the night here. The next day, Glondorf tries Direction Sense to locate Aktuh – it fails because (he believes) that she isn't within range. Maria sends a message to Ahemy and Scattill (at Throal Library):
M> Have you heard of any Horror activity between Ishkarat and Throal in the last few months?"
AS> Can you hear me? How does this thing work? We don't know of any Horror activities in this area and we are checking with other (end of message).
M> Limited word count – please be succinct.
AS> Oh – didn't know – no Horror actions, will ask around.
The group takes the Dragon Express back to Ishkarat, landing a day and a half later (10 to 15 minutes outside of town). Glondorf again tries Direction Sense, but he doesn't think he beats her spell defense.
Getting within sight of Ishkarat, and something looks 'wrong'. Three red X's have been drawn on the gates (darker at the top, lighter going down). Group tries a message to the Mayor and Taylor ("WTF?"), but they get no response. Kevin sends the falcon up very high to look over the walls and sees no movement in the streets at all. People start looking at the gate via Astral Space – good thing Maria rolls a 28, otherwise she would have received a monstrous headache – and now the party is really worried. Betsey confirms that the X's are made with blood.
"Oh Good – you're back!"
The voice is now easily recognizable as Babs – she's in one of the towers (about 20 feet up inside the tower) looking at the party from an arrow slit.
"The city isn't empty. The people are still here. I asked them to make the X's. It seemed like a nice decoration at the time."
(Tom chalks a message to Chumanna – "Babs in town in tower".)
"I have a present for you", says Babs. The gate opens and Taylor walks out, her eyes glazed over. As soon as the gate closes, she appears to regain her senses. She has no memory of any events from the past week; she only remembers hearing the gate close. Maria casts Karma Cancel on Babs. Kevin uses Great Leap to attempt to break down the gate by ramming it – not necessarily a great decision as he hits the gate with a soft "thud" (also he does make Babs chuckle just a bit). Tom casts his now famous "circle of protection" around the group (freaking 56 mystic armor!).
Kevin scrapes himself off the gate, then starts to dose the gate with oil – while Tom attempts to summon a Spirit on the other side of the gate (trying to open it from the inside). Maria casts Aura Strike at Babs, causing damage and a wound!
"Hey! I give you a present and you thank me with spell damage? I'm insulted! If that's what you want, I'm happy to oblige!" And with that, four of the Elementals (from a few days ago) morph up from the ground and start swinging. Kevin lights the oil on the gate (a rather large BOOM) and Great Leaps away to the top of the tower where Babs is. Maria casts Combat Fury on Mike, and Sabrina hits Babs with an arrow (ouch!).
Babs opens the front gate and casts a spell causing swirling winds around her, but she continues to take damage from the party. She appears to be getting very mad, and casts a VERY nasty spell which hits Taylor (no damage), then Sabrina (whack), then Mike (SERIOUS WHACK), then Betsey (whack), then Mike again (and he's out cold!). Babs then screams "DON'T F*CK WITH ME!"
Kevin comes out of the tower and attempts to grab Babs (who is starting her "winking out" process) but fails to get and maintain contact. Babs eventually fades away, and the elementals fade away as well.
Kevin goes back to the gate – the wood portion has been blown away (taking the red X's as well), but the stone infrastructure is still intact. The group determines that the Astral effect is also gone – a fact confirmed when the Mayor comes to the gate a minute later with a confused look on her face. "What happened?" is all she can get out.

ANDERSON COUNTY, SC (WYFF) - A magistrate court judge formally charged John Michael Young with murder in the case of two bodies that were found inside barrels at Lake Hartwell.
Deputies said Young was arrested around midnight Saturday at a residence on West Lake Street in Iva. Investigators say community tips led them there.
On Sunday, Young was charged with two counts of murder and the unauthorized removal of a dead body.
Hours after his arrest on Saturday, Young appeared before Judge James Cox on other charges related to the investigation, including drug and pistol-related charges.
Young is being held at the Anderson County Detention Center.
On Friday, Young and Shaine David Fischer, both of Anderson, were named as suspects in the deaths of 37-year-old Andrea "Kellie" Mitchell, from Pendleton, and 52-year-old Tony Lamar McGinnis, from Starr.
Deputies said Fischer was already in custody. He is charged with two counts of accessory after the fact of murder. Investigators say he helped dispose of the bodies.
Deputies say Young killed McGinnis and Mitchell by causing blunt force trauma to the head. Investigators say it happened in the woods on Hix Road in Anderson County. They say they believe McGinnis was killed on or around September 15 and that Mitchell was killed on or around October 18.
Deputies executed a search warrant at Young's home on Friday and collected some evidence that News 4's Mandy Gaither said included knives and a chain saw.
Mitchell's body was found inside a barrel on Wednesday in Lake Hartwell. Coroner Greg Shore said her body may have been in the barrel for as long as 35 days.
Friday afternoon, Shore identified the body in the second barrel as that of McGinnis. Shore said McGinnis' body had been dismembered, but Mitchell's was not.
McGinnis had been reported missing several weeks ago. Anderson County deputies had last spoken to him in September, and no one had heard from him since.
Mitchell and McGinnis knew each other and deputies believe they were targeted. Investigators say the suspects were among the victims' group of friends.
Funeral arrangements have been set for Mitchell at the Brown-Ogelsby Funeral Home in Seneca. The family will receive friends Tuesday from 6pm to 8pm. A service takes place in the funeral home chapel on Wednesday at 3pm.
Mitchell left behind a husband, Randy, and two sons, Jacob and Jonathan.

The phone rang at 8:15 Saturday morning. Reluctantly, we answered.
"Jim Valvano is out at N.C. State," the caller said. "Bob Wenzel of Rutgers is in."
A crank call? No.
Fact? Not yet.
A preview of coming attractions? You bet.
As "Personal Fouls," the piercing book about Valvano's allegedly corrupt basketball program at North Carolina State, continues to be read and debated in college basketball circles, speculation will build that Valvano has coached his last game for the Wolfpack.
Indeed, unless author Peter Golenbock and his sources have combined to give us 311 pages of lies, N.C. State administrators will have no choice but to fire Valvano, his 1983 national championship and a theatrical flair for coaching, conning and comedy notwithstanding.
The allegations in "Personal Fouls" are that damning. But not because of rampant violation of NCAA rules. The charges that some State players received cash, cars and jewelry from boosters are vague and unsubstantiated.
The most damaging evidence against Valvano, his staff and Chancellor Bruce Poulton centers upon ethics. According to "Personal Fouls," Valvano, State's coach since 1980 and its athletic director since 1986, runs his program without regard to university admission and academic standards or his players' academic or social progress.
Valvano is in it for Valvano. Film a commericial here; make a speech there; pass "Go," collect thousands of dollars and hopefully any problems back in Raleigh - like players flunking a class or a drug test - will take care of themselves. If not, Jimmy V can break into his routine and tell a few jokes. Laughing will close people's eyes, and V makes folks laugh more often than does Johnny Carson.
Valvano, the book alleges, gets away with such nonsense because Poulton is one of his most loyal supporters. Valvano is supposed to be accountable to the school's Athletics Council, but Poulton controls those appointments. Poulton also helps bail out basketball players from their self-imposed academic prisons by allowing them second and third chances any architecture major with a weak jump shot would never receive.
Sounds like machine politics: dirty tactics but no law breaking.
But is all this true?
The coaching fraternity can be brutally loyal. Members believe outsiders can't understand the pressures to produce. And Valvano is a popular member of the frat.
But his stockpiling of players and poor graduation rate have raised eyebrows for years.
Valvano has yet to respond to "Personal Fouls" since it was released last week after long delays and a change in publishers. Each day of silence harms his case and promotes the gossip.
Wenzel would be a great choice because he has Atlantic Coast Conference connections from his days as an assistant at Duke; Wenzel would be a terrible choice because he and Valvano are friends.
Jeff Mullins, the coach and athletic director at North Carolina Charlotte, would bring instant credibility to State; Mullins never would leave Charlotte two months before preseason practice.
Certainly Valvano and his battery of lawyers have read "Personal Fouls." Probably over and over. It must make Valvano cringe. In shame or anger. Perhaps both.
But his task is clear. He must publicly respond to the book. And jokes won't do this time. Valvano may tell them, but we won't be fooled. Not this time.
The statements of former Wolfpack players and current and former N.C. State professors have shifted the burden of proof to Jim Valvano and Bruce Poulton.
Unless Valvano can refute most every allegation in "Personal Fouls," he doesn't deserve to run a college basketball program.
Ditto Poulton.
If he's a puppet controlled by a basketball coach, he has no business running a university.

Three separate tank farms were necessary for the southwestern Alaska village–one for the client (AVEC), the local school, and the City of New Stuyahok. Each site required extensive trenching for drainage and a containment area to combat potential ground contamination. With no docking facilities, mobilizing materials required the construction of access roads. From planning and piping to fencing and lighting, STG self-performed 100 percent of contracted work. A team with a balance of specialty and transferrable skills enables us to send fewer crew members to a job site, removing the need for subcontractors.

Great Job, Katie
by AMY DEANE
We recently became new owners to a Pug. We took her to the Groom Room because of the special attention Pugs require. Katie did a fantastic job with my little baby, then even prettied her up more with a bandana. I take Indy there for everything now. The fact that she loves a car ride makes it easy, too. Hope you come back soon, Katie, Indy misses you!! Thanks again!!
Rudy loves his groomers
by Beverly
I've been taking my Rudy (Staffy) mix for over 2 years about every six week and they are great. He loves the place so much that he runs right into the back grooming place when I bring him there and once I was dropping stuff off at the Hooks and Hangers right down from them, he recognized where he was and jumped out my truck and ran right to their door wanting in. So-oo you know they've got to be good if your dog voluntarily runs to their door to go see them.
Awesome job!
by Erika
My dog was traumatized at Petco in La Plata. I took Rudy, my 2 year old cockapoo to the groom room and he was so happy when we left. Completely different dog! He looked and smelled GREAT!! I recommend Groom Room to everyone I know who has pets!
Great Groomer!
by The Schmelzers
We took our Golden Retriever Angel to the groom room today for the first time. All we can say is WOW! The Groom Room did a fantastic job and we will be regular customers from this point forward. Angel looked like a new dog! Extremely happy customers.

Ed Miliband's speech on immigration and integration today talks about real policy issues, and is not just designed to play to the concerns of the tabloid media.
In a week in which immigration has been in the news, Ed Miliband has defied the moral panic with a surprisingly courageous and considered speech on the integration of new migrants; for once, it is an immigration speech that talks about real policy issues, and is not just designed to play to the concerns of the tabloid media, writes Jill Rutter
Tuesday saw media frenzy about the latest Census 2011 release. This highlighted the growth of in the proportion of the population born overseas – it was 13 per cent in 2011 – a level predicted in the Annual Population Survey and that is comparable with most western European countries.
Yesterday, home secretary Theresa May, in a speech at Policy Exchange, (LINK 2) engaged in the usual immigration firefighting. She made some concessions in relation to student migration, while promising more rigorous checks on would-be students from high risk countries. In future, some MBA and PhD graduates from outside the EU will be allowed to stay on after their courses have finished.
May also promised tougher checks on would-be students, but failed to address how the UK Border Agency or Foreign Office consular services will deliver these checks, when staffing levels have been severely cut.
Generally, dealing with one border control issue generally takes away UK Border Agency resources from elsewhere – for example, asylum determination or the removal of foreign national prisoners – and leads to high profile operational disasters that play so badly with public opinion (pdf). There is surprisingly little debate about how much we want or need to spend on border control.
Ed Miliband could have continued with the immigration firefighting. Instead he chose to address an equally important immigration concern: integration – what happens to migrants after they arrive in the UK.
Integration is a crucial issue, for migrants themselves and the communities that receive them. And the failures of migrant integration – unemployment, educational under-achievement and social segregation – also have the potential to be costly to the public purse and exacerbate negative public perceptions about migrants.
Many migrants integrate successfully, into the workplace, in their new neighbourhoods, and their children make good progress at school. Other migrant groups are less successful and there is considerable variation (pdf) in the economic and social aspects of integration within migrant groups.
The employment rate among some refugee groups and those who have come through family migration routes (as spouses) tends to be lower, with Labour Force Survey data suggesting just 20 per cent of those born in Somalia were in work in the last quarter of 2011.
Being in work supports integration, as the workplace is a space where migrants meet and mix with those from outside their community. But there is considerable occupational segregation in parts of the UK economy – in the health and social care sectors, catering, and food processing, in particular.
The causes of occupational segregation are complex, a view supported by a recent statutory inquiry (pdf) of the Equality and Human Rights Commission into meat processing. This found preferential treatment of migrants by a small number of employers and recruitment agencies. However, the inquiry also found the low wages of the sector – sometimes below the National Minimum Wage – and unpleasant working conditions deterred UK-born workers.
The inquiry stressed the importance of upholding employment rights such as the National Minimum Wage for all in the meat processing sector. This would benefit migrants, but it may also result in making meat processing a more attractive form of employment to UK -born workers, decreasing ethnic segregation in this sector and enabling the workplace to be a site of integration.
Nearly 12 months ago, the government published Creating the Conditions for Integration (pdf), its own strategy paper on this issue. This slim document placed responsibility for integration solely on local government and had no coordinated programme of work is attached to it. Crucially, too, there were many omissions, with no mention of how the Work Programme might improve employment rates, or how the government might tackle occupational segregation.
The Miliband speech promises a comprehensive national integration strategy. It addressed occupational segregation and also the residential segregation seen in some inner city areas. New migrants to the UK are overwhelmingly housed in the private rental sector, with some inner city areas now dormitories for migrant workers (and UK students).
Private rental accommodation is usually characterised by insecure tenure and it can be squalid, overcrowded and unsafe. Miliband promises stronger regulation of the private rental sector, a move that would benefit both newcomers and UK nationals alike.
Securing the integration of new migrants is a difficult task for all governments. There are no quick and easy solutions. Integration also requires the long-term commitment of many different government departments and effective inter-departmental coordination has always been weak on this issue.
Perhaps the most important theme raised in the Miliband speech was his desire to acknowledge past failures and to discuss and prioritise this neglected issue.
Jill Rutter writes on migration issues and through IPPR will be publishing a paper on integration in February 2013.

J. Michael Straczynski started off by revolutionizing television science fiction when he created Babylon 5 (****). Since then, all of his TV deals have either been canceled or have fallen through entirely. (The show he was working on with Chris Carter came that close.) So he turned to comic books, with Rising Stars (****), reviewed last issue. Now he's working in radio drama. That's right, radio.
I love radio drama. I suppose I ought to call it "audio" but old habits die hard. Radio has produced at least one classic in the SF genre, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (****), the radio version of which is by far the best. And some of those old X Minus One shows weren't half bad. I particularly remember The Lifeboat Mutiny (****) by Robert Sheckley and The Martian Chronicles (****) by Ray Bradbury. (The best radio drama of all was Gunsmoke (****), infinitely superior to the watered down TV Gunsmoke (**). You can order Gunsmoke on radio by calling 1-800-733-4648.)
Alas, Mr. Straczynski's radio drama, while well acted, with fine production values, is too much like the old Twilight Zone TV show of beloved memory to be enjoyable. In short, it takes too long to make an obvious if laudable point -- it is not nice to be prejudiced against Black people.
The series title is City of Dreams, and the first episode is "The Damned are Playing at Godzilla's Tonight" (**). I suspect Harlan came up with the title, which is catchy but not really apt.
If you're curious, and want to give it a listen, here's what you do. (The Sci-Fi Channel has not made it easy to find.) First, go to www.scifi.com. Then pass your cursor over SciFi.com Presents, and a pull down menu will appear. Then click on Seeing Ear Theatre. Then click on City of Dreams. (You have to wait a little while for that logo to appear near the top of the page.) [Editor's Note: The URL is www.scifi.com/cityofdreams/]
Seeing Ear Theatre also has Neil Gaiman's Murder Mysteries (**). But your best bet is under "classics" where you will find some of those old episodes of X (echo effect) Minus (echo effect) One.
Rick Norwood is a mathematician and writer whose small press publishing house, Manuscript Press, has published books by Hal Clement, R.A. Lafferty, and Hal Foster. He is also the editor of Comics Revue Monthly, which publishes such classic comic strips as Flash Gordon, Sky Masters, Modesty Blaise, Tarzan, Odd Bodkins, Casey Ruggles, The Phantom, Gasoline Alley, Krazy Kat, Alley Oop, Little Orphan Annie, Barnaby, Buz Sawyer, and Steve Canyon.

From Sweden:
Do you have Insulatard made by Novo Nordisk (Denmark) and Humalog made by Lilly (France) in the U.S.?
Humalog is available here in the United States. Insulatard is not. All insulin in the U.S. is U-100 (100 units per ml).
If you are taking a short trip here, it would be best to bring all of your own supplies, and extra in case of problems.
If you are moving here, there are other insulins here which you could use instead of Insulatard.

I really just cannot get enough of these new Toread stamps from Crafter's Companion USA (and UK). I love fairies (ok, technically these are nymphs), and these have the sweetest little faces, truly!
Today I've colored Flora with my Spectrum Noir markers. Here's a list of the colors I used:
Dress: GB1, GB2, GB4
Skin: FS9, FS4 FS3, FS2 (cheeks, ears have CR3)
Hair: EB5, EB8, GB10
Small Flowers/Greenery: TB4, TB7, DG2, DG4
Outline: BG3, BG2, BG1
I also used some GB7 to color a little bit of the flower center, to the right of my image. And I added sponging to the image panel itself with Antique Linen and Brushed Corduroy inks.
Which Toread is your favorite? It is SO hard to choose, isn't it? In addition to the six EZ Mount Stamp sets, there are two decoupage sets. One for Christmas, and one for everyday. There is a papercrafting CD also!
Stamps: Flora (Crafter's Companion)
Card Stock: Candlelight, Moss (Bazzill); White (Crafter's Companion)
Patterned Paper: Tea for Two (Cosmo Cricket)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko); Antique Linen, Brushed Corduroy (Ranger)

Accessories: Flower (Prima); Ribbon (May Arts)

Back in March, I penned a piece speculating that Intel's (NASDAQ:INTC) 14-nanometer CPU core codenamed Airmont would indeed hit smartphones, but only in low-end parts, leaving the mid-range and above to its successor, known as Goldmont. According to new information, it appears that Intel did indeed have big plans for Airmont in the smartphone space, and it was in fact targeted at low-cost, fully integrated (with apps processor and cellular/connectivity) devices. Brace yourselves -- while that speculation appears to have been confirmed, there's a lot more to take in.
Intel's missing "6331" was known as Slayton; Riverton on 14-nanometer
Back at Intel's 2012 Investor Meeting, Intel's mobile GM Hermann Eul told investors to expect a part codenamed "6331," which would be a 22-nanmeter part with integrated cellular. Indeed, this part had a codename change to Slayton and integrated dual 1.2 GHz Silvermont CPU cores as well as an HSPA+ (3G) modem. The analog/RF portion was slated (no pun intended) to be built on a 65nm process, most likely as TSMC (NYSE:TSM).
The follow-on part, which was slated for a late 2015 introduction, was known as Riverton, which looked to integrate dual 1.6 GHz Airmont CPU cores, as well as a modem with support for HSPA+, LTE Category 3, and TD-SCDMA. The RF/connectivity chip that accompanied the platform would also be built on the 14-nanometer process (which would mark the very first 14nm FinFET RF silicon in the industry). A lower-end variant, known as Binghamton, would be 3G only, sport Airmont cores clocked at 1.2 GHz, and arrive in the first half of 2016.
In light of Intel's recent plans for SoFIA, it is unlikely either of these parts will see the light of day, although Riverton may be modified to include four Airmont cores and could still make it to market.
New details on "Broxton"
At Intel's most recent Investor Meeting, it talked about its next-generation product codenamed Broxton. This would be targeted toward high-end tablets and high-end smartphones, and offer "leadership" performance and power. According to this new information, the Goldmont CPU core inside of Broxton will come in a quad-core configuration, Gen. 9 Intel graphics, will not offer hyperthreading, and will offer support for LPDDR3, LPDDR4, and Wide IO 2 memory. On top of that, it will be offered in both soldered down memory formats or Package on Package format.
From the information given, it appears this will not include an integrated LTE modem, and will instead be paired with the company's next-generation XMM 7360 modem, which will again be built on TSMC's 28-nanometer process. Do keep in mind, however, that the features listed for 7260 on these materials seem outdated, and the current 7260 feature set appears to be reflected in the 7360 listed.
Intel's first FinFET modem -- the XMM 7460
The last bit of interesting news here is that Intel plans to bring to market a 14-nanometer modem in Q1 2016 known as the XMM 7460. This modem will support 3GPP release 12, category 7 LTE-Advanced, the suite of connectivity features, 3x Carrier Aggregation (60 MHz), and whole host of other goodies. This represents a fundamental shift, as this begins the move of all modem/connectivity volume internally, better driving utilization of its factories and taking that revenue away from TSMC.
Foolish bottom line
It's interesting to see that Intel's mobile roadmap was indeed strong, but it seems execution problems (on both design and process technology) kept Intel from becoming the leader it had told investors it would become in mobile three years ago. However, with the roadmap it has in place now (Broxton in mid-2015, 14nm SoFIA in early 2016), it can still become one of the major players in mobile.
Intel has the right stuff to win, and has always had the right stuff to win, but it just needs to execute -- something I'm hopeful CEO Brian Krzanich and his team will pull off to deliver value for everybody holding Intel stock.

Hi the update is failing with this error:
Warning: copy(/homepages/30/d574721670/htdocs/app574722482/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /homepages/30/d574721670/htdocs/app574722482/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php on line 257
The update cannot be installed because we will be unable to copy some files. This is usually due to inconsistent file permissions.: wp-admin/includes/update-core.php
How does fix this?
I have not made any technical changes at all to the web site
the update to 4.7.2 will be rolled out by us to your installation very soon. In Managed WordPress you shouldn't be able to do this manually at all. That's our fault and we are very sorry! Will be fixed with the upcoming auto-update.
Best regards,
Michael, 1&1
after update to 4.7.2 in managed (or in a new managed installation) It's impossible to upload any file (plugin or theme) also of 2MB!!
The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.
I called the service, but was told that the managed no longer be supported and that I must necessarily change with the standard.
it seems absurd!
Hi andrea,
thanks for letting us know! Our technicians are already investigating the issue and will fix it soon.
Best regards,
Michael, 1&1
Is this issue resolved. I'm about to become a new customer of 1&1 for the Managed WordPress Plus and the issue mentionned in this thread is really bugging me. I'm not sure if choosing 1&1 is the best thing for me.
Those type of problems should be handle right away not 24hours later. This kind of delay can easily break some trust that I have with current customers of mine.
Let me know how it goes.
Hi Eric,
thanks for your comment. Yes, the issue is resolved.
Best regards,
Michael, 1&1
All my websites were updated to 4.7.2 and now none of them work and I am unable to fix the file mentioned in the error message because I do not have permission. Please fix your 4.7.2 rollout that broke all of my sites! Thank you.
Hi Jesse Nietzer,
so sorry for the problems caused by our update.
Our developers are rolling out a bugfix right now. Should be fixed in the next hours.
Please let me know by the end of today (or whenever you have the time), if everything works fine again for you.
Michael, 1&1

Hi Kim,
sorry for the late response.
Seems that the plugin cp-multi-view-calendar does not work properly with 4.7.2.
We deactivated the plugin for you, your website is back online & you can access your admin area again.
Please ask the plugin developers for a maybe update for 4.7.2. Then install the plugin newly. Alternatively you might find a different calendar plugin which does not force these kinds of problems.
Michael, 1&1
Thank you. I suspected it was the plugin but could not get to it to deactivate it
As of just now the update is STILL FAILING with the same error message.
Come on 1&1 how long does it take to fix this?
How do I raise a formal support ticket?
so sorry for the long waiting time. As I can see in our system, you are now updated to 4.7.2.
Again, i am deeply sorry for the delay!
Best regards,
Michael, 1&1
Since the update, I cannot access my website nor the admin page. There are just error messages. Please fix this now
Fixed as seen in my comment here:
Sorry and best,
Michael, 1&1
I am getting same error message as everyone else, posted below. I'm late to the game bc I've been out on a back injury, and just now able to get up and do somethings online, when I discovered the problem with my own personal site. Can I get this resolved here, or should I open a ticket? As per the other comments, I suspect my issue may be related to an plug-in that didn't like any updates.
Warning: require_once(/homepages/2/d585968601/htdocs/clickandbuilds/ChanzillaWP/wp-includes/cache.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /homepages/2/d585968601/htdocs/clickandbuilds/ChanzillaWP/wp-includes/load.php on line 466

Hi Chan Zilla,
1) Did you try to deactivate your plugins and re-activate them one by another to investigate which one might break your installation? You should try this first.
2) Does this error appear only with the current PHP version? what happens if you change to PHP 5.6 or 7.0?
Best regards,
Michael, 1&1
I can't access the control panel bc I can't get any pages to load. I did try PHP 5.6, 7, and 7.1, didn't make a difference. I'm sure it's a plug-in, but I can't access my WP admin, all pages crash with the error I gave in my post.
Then you should re-name all plugin folders on your webspace via (S)FTP: https://community.1and1.com/deactivating-all-wordpress-plugins-locked-out-wp-admin/
Best regards,
Michael, 1&1

Divine sounds from the mighty Cody Chestnutt – a singer who's come a long way from both his Headphone Masterpiece album, and the long drought that followed that classic set! Cody's very firmly back in the driver's seat – and he's working strongly to remind folks that fuzzy, abstract soul was a genre he virtually invented – unafraid to let the beats and crispy bits in the mix get equal space alongside his vocals, sometimes turning the bottom up top, and really letting the songs find their flow! Yet the lyrics are also more important than before, too – filled with a sense of message that really shows a maturing side of the singer, and a willingness to answer some of the struggles that might not have touched him as strongly before. Cody still may be one of the most understated singers in soul music – but he's also got this subtle power that just seems to get better as the years move on – and maybe even a bit more collaborative here, as the album features some contributions from artists who include Raphael Saadiq and Twilite Tone. Titles include "Africa The Future", "Anything Can Happen", "I Stay Ready", "Image Of Love", "Have You Heard Anything From The Lord Today", "Shine On The Mic", "This Green Leaf", "It's In The Love", "Always Sebrena", "So Sad To See A Lost Generation", "Bullets In The Street & Blood", and "Make A Better Man". © 1996-2018, Dusty Groove, Inc.
We realize that there are many different interpretations of the standard grades used for pre-owned vinyl record albums & CD, so we thought we'd offer you the ones that we are working with, so you have an idea what we mean when we give the grade for a non-new item on our pages.
Below are stated conditions for a used vinyl records at Dusty Groove. Grading for the cover should be assumed to be near (within a "+" or "-") the grading for the vinyl. If there is significant divergence from the condition of the vinyl, or specific flaws, these will be noted in the comments section of the item. However, please be aware that since the emphasis of this site is towards the music listener, our main concern is with the vinyl of any used item we sell. Additionally, all of our records are graded visually; considering the volume of used vinyl we handle, it is impossible for us to listen to each record. If we spot any significant flaws, we make every attempt to listen through them and note how they play.
The following grading conditions apply to the vinyl component of an album or single:
This is what it says, that the record is still held fast in shrink-wrap. We tend to be pretty suspicious about these things, so if the shrink-wrap doesn't look original, or if the record seems to have undergone some damage over time, we'll probably take it out of the wrapper to ensure that it's in good shape — which is why we don't have more of these. In some cases the shrink-wrap may be torn in spots, but if it's not possible the record has been taken out and played, the record will still qualify as "Sealed".
Dusty Groove does not use the grades of Near Mint (or Mint, for that matter) because in our experience, we find that no records ever qualify for such a high grade. Even sealed records tend to have one or two slight faults, enough to usually qualify them for a grade of NM- or lower. We've often found that records which are clearly unplayed will have a slight amount of surface noise, especially in quieter recordings.
This is a grade we rarely use, as we try not to sell records in very bad condition, though in some rare cases we will list a record in such bad shape that it does not conform to the standards above. A "Fair" record will have enough marks or significant flaws that it does not even qualify as "Good", but is a copy you might consider for playing, if you're willing to put up with noise and/or flaws. An example might be a recording with surface noise so heavy that it is equal to the volume of the music. For records listed as "Fair", we will describe the extent of the condition in the comments.
Like "Fair", we rarely list records in this condition, as they represent the extreme low end of spectrum. These records typically have multiple serious problems, and we offer them as "relics" or "objects" only — for those who want to at least have a copy of a record, even if it is not really worthy of play, perhaps for the cover alone. For these records, we will describe the extent of the condition in the comments.
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.
We have only one grade for non-new CDs at Dusty Groove — "Used CD". This grade is somewhat all-encompassing, but we choose it because we try to offer Used CDs in the best shape possible. All of our Used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. If you purchase a Used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly — and if it does not, then you may return it for a full refund.

Know why Women Around The World Are Sharing Unfiltered Photos Of Their Thighs
Women around the globe opposing society's rigid standards
The trending #ThighsForJeaux is a movement in acceptance. The new trending hashtag is dedicated to women who ever felt insecure about their thighs. It gained popularity in January, when it was created by South Africa-based Twitter user Mixo.
According to Marie Claire, Mixo told her followers that they shouldn't be afraid to show off their thighs, especially in the summer heat and shared a picture of herself using the hashtag.
Her tweet inspired other social media users to join her and create a space where women can embrace their thighs- no matter how thick, how hairy, how dimply or how "imperfect" they may seem by society's rigid standards.
It took the whole day to work up the nerve, here's to #ThighsForJeaux @Mijeaux 😅 happy thigh day and body positivity pic.twitter.com/FsQkcJdRhH

— UnspokenTruth (@siphokazi_veti) September 1, 2016
Society had always been judgmental towards a women but movements like these can actually make a difference and get women together globally. The hashtag enjoyed another spike in popularity on Thursday with twitter users across the globe adding to the conversation with more selfies and words of encouragement.

Venturing into the Thornwaste, a barren and twisted land where the Lion is rumored to make his home, the adventurers came upon a massive structure in the form of a lion. In the darkness of night, spectral forms flitted about it, but they seemed to vanish in the light of the sun. In a hollow at the base of the structure, in the lion's chest, slept a gargantuan behir. Above, in the lion's mouth, Thistle discovered two of the specters keeping watch. Upon closer inspection, they wore phantasmal armor bearing the crests of Rhestilor and Nerath. The pixie requested an audience with the Lion, but a fight broke out between the visitors and the behir, which the ghostly guards merely observed from above. The behir, named Varanthian, became enraged when he learned that the heroes were enemies of the Red Hand, and unleashed withering blasts of electricity at them.
The heroes prevailed, and the ghost soldiers escorted them into the lion structure's foyer, where they were bade to wait while the guards informed "the Master" of their wish to see him. Not content to wait, however, they began exploring as soon as their escorts vanished through a wall. Amidst the ubiquitous lion carvings and statues they discovered a grisly laboratory and a chamber with a mysterious pool, floating black orb, and motionless ogre skeletons in alcoves. Disturbing the skeletons caused them to attack, and the intruders soon learned that the skeletons exploded in bursts of razor-sharp bone shards when broken.

March 11, 2008, on this blog: All She Wants to Do Is Dance
That initial description of Abbas in her leopard-print tops and oversized jewelry reminded me of several larger-than-life women I have known — people of whom I'm enormously fond for their love of life and their cheerfully boisterous insistence that the world deal with them on their own terms. But as courageous in their own way as those women are, none of them lives in a place like Baghdad. None of them drove a van full of schoolchildren every day while living under Saddam's dictatorship and then kept driving through the chaos of invasion, of a bungled occupation and civil war.
Azhar Abbas is awesome.

Weak, effete men and the improved social position of women in recent years are held to be amongst the reasons that a quarter of Japanese may soon pass their entire lives without ever marrying.
The latest trend amongst unmarried Japanese is "婚活 / konkatsu", an abbreviation formed from the words "kekkon" and "katsudou", meaning marriage and activity respectively.
Such activities, now well in vogue, try to create opportunities for meetings between the sexes for the ever increasing population of aging and poorly connected Japanese aspiring to matrimonial bliss, as it seems many feel an overwhelming social pressure to pursue marriage, and in yet in the normal course of their lives are never to able to court potential paramours.
A recent work by a sociologist and a journalist, "Age of 'Konkatsu'", attempts to analyse this trend, and presents findings which may disturb those Japanese keen to pursue married life.
Until now, the proportion of people in their fifties who remain unmarried their entire lives has stood at 16% for men, and 7% for women, however this is estimated to increase to 25% never marrying as the younger non-marrying generations age.
Factors cited in this trend are increasing numbers of passive men fearful of rejection, and increasing numbers of women with greater social stature, and less time to meet potential suitors. The work is presumably too circumspect to mention the economic expectations of women as a factor.
As a result, active attempts to find a spouse are said to be essential – it is the "Age of Konkatsu," if this research is to be believed.
Via Sankei.
Other researchers have stated that now is Japan's last hope before an irreversible demographic death spiral grips the nation, as the few children of mostly childless couples themselves proceed to have even fewer children, who in their turn may have even fewer children…

"Researchers at the University of Toronto's Citizen Lab said they documented a "complex ecosystem of cyber espionage that systematically compromised government, business, academic and other computer networks in India, the Offices of the Dalai Lama, the United Nations, and several other countries." Data stolen from dozens of hacked computers mostly in India contained sensitive information about missile systems, Sino-Indian relations, as well as personal, financial and business information of citizens from 31 countries." Even though the hacks lead to China it was not possible to identify the attackers and it is possible the Chinese government had not sanctioned or was aware of the attacks. Yahoo and Google have also alleged that attacks on their services and users have originated from China with Google almost exiting China but instead opting to redirect their search engine page in China to their Hong Kong site in a very public U-turn on their original stance.

1) GNU/Linux system will report beeing windows when asked by statistics or web query , why ? Microsoft product tends to not support them at all , they dont even properly support there own backward versions.
Tell me of one linux distribution that does that by default. Firefox on my debian box surely reports itself as Linux.
2) Its a poll of **some** participating sites its not the majority of sites that report to it at all.
You will be surprised, but this is true for all surveys.
3) Globally , I dont think this poll reach 15% of the English online community , forget about the rest.
I'm sure your numbers are very accurate.
- Statistics are meaningless if theyre not from me
Marketshare are meaningless if there not from me
I am going to use what is best for me or whats availaible
"Tell me of one linux distribution that does that by default."
They all do , its a question of setup. 95% of the problem with GNU/Linux come from amateurs who think they are pro's who cant setup things properly.
"Firefox on my debian box surely reports itself as Linux."
No , because Linux is only a kernel , probably GNU/Linux , what can I say you missed IP setup step ... You did not setup your firewall properly to be protected , etc ...
"You will be surprised"
No , not at all.
"but this is true for all surveys. "
No , some survey actually do the leg work of including data and go look for many source to accomplish a result and will tell a margin of errors , so I will disagree with you that all survey are as pathetic and inconclusive as this one , in its nature survey are not a 100% report as its impossible to poll absolutely everyone.
"I'm sure your numbers are very accurate."
I take the lowest numbers Microsoft will agree on globally.
what it means ? Everyone as statistics , Everyone as Marketshare reports , I trust only mine , Marketshare and Statistics are meaningless to the single user who whants its computer to work , they certainly dont care about GNU/Linux if its not availaible or installed on there PC when they come to use it.
Its really simple , really.

The Florida Marlins have figured out a way to sell some tickets finally... but they still won't fill the seats. You now can own your very own piece of history - a ticket to Roy Halladay's perfect game against the Marlins from Saturday night. One might wonder why the Marlins would want to sell and celebrate the inability to get a hit or a walk. The answer is simple: they can make a few bucks off of it.
The game on Saturday had a very large crowd for Florida standards - just over 25,000 in paid attendance. This would most likely be because the Phillies were in town, and the residents of south Florida wanted to see one of the best teams in baseball. They also had fireworks at the end of the game. You know people love them some fireworks. Currently, the Marlins have the third lowest attendance rates in all of MLB (with only Toronto and Cleveland below them), and the lowest in all of the National League.
Did I mention that the purchase of your ticket would actually count in the paid attendance for the game, as well? So it's just as though you were there. Except... not.
They must have gotten the idea from the White Sox, who sold the unused tickets for Mark Buehrle's 2009 perfection after the fact. The only difference here is that the White Sox had cause to celebrate their perfect game, since it was THEIR pitcher who achieved it. Also, the Chicago ticket sales did not count in the game's paid attendance.
If you really want your very own piece of baseball history, you can do so by clicking here. Then maybe after you buy it, you can come out to my van to check out an assortment of watches and handbags that are just like the real thing, only... not.
The Marlins Finally Sell Some Tickets

running through the projects pages, and your box caught my eye! Cedar has other things going for it as well. Which is the visual impact?
I have a small log sitting in my barn/sop given to me by a clock maker. I have other hunks as well. The cedar has remained w/out checks and splits for 10 years while other woods change with the humidity. including my walnut!
I'm not a heart guy but the rest of the box is to my liking. Make some more? Check out Andy and Greg. Super box makers, and very creative.
Looking forward to your evolution as a craftsman. Have a great new year!

One big parking lot
View from my office at 2.15pm today. I never seen traffic so bad before in the CBD. It was like this from around 1.45 till 3. It was like the CBD turned into one big parking lot.
This morning my commute to work, which usually takes 25 to 30 minutes, took a whole hour. It's getting really bad in Muscat and there will be no relief in the coming year. The new expressway wont be ready till the end of 2009 and congestion is going to get worse in the coming month as 3 bridges are going to be constructed in the Qurm area in front of Al Harthy Complex and Sultan Center. Also, next year they are planning to convert the major intersections in the CBD and Wadi Al Kabir into underpasses. Traffic is going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

Magazines now more expensive than paperback books?
Are magazines flown to us on first class seats on British Airways?
Customer Service: Galfar
An excerpt from the email I sent on August 9th:
The drivers rarely wear seat belts. The speed they drive at is extremely dangerous, especially since they are crossing a public road and continuing onto a gravel road. The high speed on the gravel road causes large clouds of dirt and dust throughout the day. Midway through the day, water is sprayed on the road to reduce the dust but that also has the effect of turning the road into a large puddle of mud. The gravel road itself has deteriorated very rapidly because of the weight of these trucks and has now become very rough and bumpy. As residents of the area we have no choice but suffer through the dust and dirt. But now the deteriorating roads are damaging our cars as well.There was no response from the company to acknowledge receipt of my email. At first I thought they had simply decided to ignore me, but then on August 16th, I received the following email from the company:
I am writing to you as a concerned citizen and resident of the area. I appreciate the effort that the government is making to develop Oman, and I am proud that Galfar, a local company, has the responsibility to build the prestigious Muscat Expressway. However, I am concerned for the health and wellbeing of the residents of South Ghoubra, and also your own drivers. I am sure that your company invests a lot into health and safety training for these drivers. You should know that many of them are not following their training. Safe driving does not allow for high speed driving on dirt and gravel roads, especially when driving a huge tipper truck, filled to the brim with sand or gravel. The most basic aspect of safe driving is wearing the seatbelt and many of the drivers don't even do that.
I hope you give serious consideration to the safety practices of your drivers.
We thank you very much for highlighting the HSE concern to Galfar drivers and the public at large.
Please see the actions initiated to ensure that mistakes done by the drivers are not repeated again.
We would appreciate your continued feedback to further improve our commitment to all stake holders, with particular emphasis to HSE and Environmental aspects.
Enclosed with the email were forwarded copies of the entire chain of forwards and responses from various people within the company, culminating with the following from the Preject HSE Advisor, Mr. Sandeep Nambiar:
Dear Sirs,
The graded road being addressed in this letter refers to the Haul road from backside of Slaughter house (in Bausher) to IC # 07.
This road is being used by other Galfar Heavy & Light Vehicles as well as some Third Party Heavy & Light vehicles.
Reasons for the dust cloud and pot hole formation on these roads were due to:-
- Irregular sprinkling of water observed due to off-road status of Water Tanker on that section
- Regular plying of Loaded Heavy Vehicles (Galfar & Third Party) in speed on these graded roads
- Sprinkling of excess water on the graded road covered with fine dust (generated due to continuous pounding of graded roads under the wheels of Heavy vehicles)
- Irregular frequency of grading
Action Taken Status to correct the above deficiency
- The entire section of the road would be periodically graded everyday in the evening and fine dust generated on the road throughout the day would be cleared off
- Controlled sprinkling of water is be carried out regularly twice a day after grading
- Awareness Session on Safe Driving was carried out for all the drivers plying on that road in Bausher (attached attendance sheet)
- Traffic sign boards were installed along the road & at road crossing. (attached photographs)
- Increased frequency of RSMT (Road Safety Monitoring Team Inspection) on that particular stretch of road is carried out.
In addition continuous monitoring would be carried out to ensure that safe working environment is maintained near our working area.
Not bad, eh?

Article 61
Without knowing the details of Oman's laws, I knew that keeping the topic on the forum would probably expose me personally, as OmanForum's administrator, to responsibility for publishing the article since similar to the case of Ali Al Rasdhi a few years ago, people who were attacked on the Sabla complained to the Public Prosecutor and the PA held the site's owner responsible. I took a quick decision and deleted the article in full. By the morning of the 20th of July, the article had been copied on other forums, most importantly Sablat Oman (www.omania2.net).
Last night I read on the Sabla that the public prosecutor's office had called in Ali Al Zuwaidi (known online as Bin Daris), the moderator of the Sabla's politics and economy forum, for investigation charging him with responsibility under Article 61 of the Telecommunication law (قانون الاتصالات) which makes website owners as well as moderators and administrators of forums responsible for the content published by their users. It's not clear if he's being charged or if it is really for this particular topic, although everyone assumes that it is. I would assume that if it is for the Omantel topic, then it would be because of a complaint by the company or it's CEO to the Public Prosecutor alleging slander or defamation. I am not a legal expert, I hope Blue-Chi can tell us more about the law, and whether the Public Prosecutor can begin such an investigation without the person being defamed's own complaint.
Regardless of the technicalities, I have dodged a bullet. I think I was right to delete the topic. If the article was entirely about facts, I would have allowed it. Instead, it was full of direct attacks on individuals accusing them of gross misconduct without giving any facts to support the allegations. If I had kept the topic, would I have been under investigation as well? I'm not sure. I believe that English forums and blogs aren't given importance and don't come under scrutiny like those which are in Arabic. Having said that, I wouldn't want to be the test case.
We need to know more about the law. That's for sure.

We all have our own trials and tribulations, and sometimes it just takes a small reminder to help us power through. Success comes in many forms, small and large, and our mission is to help women find it every day.

Little Rock, Arkansas (PRWEB) August 12, 2014
Feel-good clothing company Wear Luck continues to add fresh pieces to its collection of clothing created to influence positivity and help people achieve their highest potential. Beyond anything seen in women's closets today, Wear Luck's trendy tops, pants, and skirts offer a new take on flattering, must-have classics.
It's no secret that women can be highly critical of themselves and others, which often leads to a state of unhappiness. Many also struggle with identifying their purpose in life, leaving them feeling directionless and unmotivated.
Wear Luck's mission from the very beginning has been to help women – in any stage of life – by creating wearable reminders to stay positive and continue striving to meet their goals. The company has designed unique pieces that help wearers remember to say something kind to another, make healthy choices, stick to exercise regimens, fulfill New Year's resolutions, say a special prayer for someone in need, and more.
"We wanted to create more than just fashionable clothing," said Wear Luck founder, Michelle Hastings. "We all have our own trials and tribulations, and sometimes it just takes a small reminder to help us power through. Success comes in many forms, small and large, and our mission is to help women find it every day."
Wear Luck's top selling items to date are:
"I Rock" Top: This trendy off-the-shoulder style is intended to pay compliments to the wearer and everyone she encounters with its upbeat message. Featuring the words "I Rock" on the front with "and so do you" on the back, this shirt helps wearers connect with others around them in a positive, confidence boosting way.
"I Will" Top: This super-soft shirt crafted from tri-blend fabric features "I Will" on the front, and is customizable to reflect each person's unique resolution on the sleeve. Whether she has resolved to make better decisions, fulfill a dream, or just be the best she can be every day, the wearer of this shirt is fitted with a constant reminder to stay the course and bring her aspirations to fruition.
"I Pray" Top: This knit short-sleeve style was created to remind its wearers to serve others and keep prayer alive all day. The front is imprinted with "I Pray", while the left hip is stamped with "I pray for you, please pray for me".
Wear Luck is continuously growing its line to include encouraging pieces for women from all walks of life. The company has recently unveiled bridal, anti-bullying, and cancer awareness tops in addition to its other standout designs. No matter what need, struggle, or milestone one might be facing, Wear Luck has a style to help each woman make her own luck along the way.
