I said the *exact* same thing in my head just reading the headline! Ugh...

If linking is so unimportant to you why are you commenting here on a post about, of all things, link incentives? pssht.

Re: Meta Box Script For WordPress

Marty Martin — Fri, 01 Jul 2011 11:13:59 -0000

Nevermind, I added the fields to the array with a special "_switch" tagged on to the end of the field id and set a conditional around the output of the meta boxes using a strpos() search for that string. Then created a new function called show_field_onoff() and appended it into each of the functions outputting the form code. :)

Re: Meta Box Script For WordPress

I'm trying to extend the functionality of your (amazing) class script here. I'm using it with custom post types to create a WP directory.

I'm trying to add an "on/off" checkbox I can use to control whether an item shows up in my template before I call the actual function to display the meta data. (I know I could just check whether the field has a value, but I'd rather be able to save the data in case I want to reuse it later and just turn it off with the checkbox).

Not sure if what I'm doing here is right or not but here's what I have so far-

Well stated Senior. As a search industry professional, I agree with you 100%.

Re: Facebookers Changing Profile Pics to Cartoon Characters to Fight Child Abuse

Marty Martin — Sun, 05 Dec 2010 10:46:39 -0000

This is stupid. How about contacting your local legislators and ask for more serious penalties, higher mandatory minimum sentences or reinstate the death penalty for these cases. That would be more effective than changing your asinine Facebook profile picture to a cartoon. Get real people.

Re: TweetDeck Has a Fierce Rival in Seesmic Desktop

Marty Martin — Sun, 03 May 2009 21:26:30 -0000

Really? I've used Seesmic and it's still too buggy for me to dump Tweetdeck and has a couple of features missing I like in Tweetdeck.

This is scary accurate. And I thought I was the only voodoo-miracle-worker out there. :o)

Ditto. Awesome. I'm disappointed when I visit and there's not an update! Keep it up Kevin!

Re: Why #1 isn’t necessary

Marty Martin — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 12:38:39 -0000

It is splitting hairs and they both go hand and hand. One without the other is pointless and you even pointed out "visibility" as a defining trait of SEM which ties into SEO. ;) I think we both agree on your last sentence!

Re: Official Cool Guy of the Day award

Marty Martin — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 11:50:43 -0000

I think what you meant to say was "split" but I hope you don't have a spit personality either :P

Re: A Lesson to Deadbeat Clients: Why you should never, never rip off an SEO

Marty Martin — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 12:08:07 -0000

I always always try to get payment up front, but sometimes it just doesn't work out that way so I find that taking some sort of collateral works good too, but make sure it's something you wouldn't mind keeping if they don't pay or would be easy to sell. In-kind exchanges are nice too. Maybe your rug people can't pay you, but you could give out custom rugs for the holidays? :o) Try to work with these people, do they have something of value to you? Cash is always best but sometimes customers do have legitimate cash flow problems (granted, they shouldn't be contracting with you unless they can pay, but somehow you've got to get value out of the deal). That was a long ramble but good luck, it can be frustrating but take your friends' advice and save your own reputation by keeping it at the rant-level. :)

Re: What happens if there is a tie in the Presidential electoral vote?

That's an interesting question! Interesting enough that I did some research. Here's a good explanation of what happens- http://www.huffingtonpost.c...

Of course, your question may be rhetorical but this saves others from having to do the research too! :o)
