    I'm convinced that 99% of all "these" are just fake.

    I wonder if some of these accounts are using tools like followliker to follow and like posts then unfollow them until they grow their account to gigantic numbers. I've seen it used in moderation and it does work. Haven't seen in at scale but, I don't see why not.

    Heads Up - Google Analytics is now Deleting Historical Data (Unless You Tell It Not To)

    I forgot it's a rolling 38 months so I've already been impacted. I just looked in my GA account beyond 38 months and I have lost all event data beyond that and ALL segment data. If you were using events as goals, that is gone. Non segmented ecommerce revenue and transactions are still reported...

    Heads Up - Google Analytics is now Deleting Historical Data (Unless You Tell It Not To)

    But now you're GDPR compliant bro! What exactly did you lose? They mentioned that it "shouldn't" impact most reports except advanced custom reports and segments. I work on a site that needs to be GDPR compliant and we have our data set for 38 months and I have been dreading what will happen to...

    Are the links from sites that give free backlinks spam?

    I just did it to a site I don't care about. I recognize some of these sites from my disavow list. They're all junk.

    The "No Dev Question is Stupid" Thread - Basic HTML / CSS / Etc.

    Thank you very much! I didn't know wordpress had that built in. I just recently learned SQL, so this worked out perfectly. My host has something similar to phpmyadmin that I was able to query.

    The "No Dev Question is Stupid" Thread - Basic HTML / CSS / Etc.

    I changed the slug of a page in wordpress and now it redirects the old url to the new one. I don't want this to happen because I want to replace an archive page to take the old urls place. Ex) old slug "/reviews/" was changed to "/reviews-test/" I have a new custom post type archive that I want...

    GDPR

    Looks like some of the big brands are using a popup with a consent button and a "more information" link to take them to a page that controls cookie settings. From there you can opt out of the marketing cookies. To me that seems like work, if these people are willing to work to not be tracked or...

    Does 'Google My Business' restrict you to local only

    I work with a site that has a local listing and global traffic. Google will still show you in the global serp and show your business in the map pack for regional searches. Something to consider is that your local page may show up in a larger region than what you think is "local" and that the...

    Serpstat vs Ahrefs?

    I grabbed SERPStat during their $39 appsumo deal. I was mostly interested in their rank tracking which I found to be buggy. I shared a keyword set in their rank tracker with another user and somehow caused it to wipe out the tracked keyword data in the other account. It only tracks your site so...

    So I bought a new office desk. (Post pics of yours or one you want)

    Very similar to Jeff Bezos' original desk. My setup is two desks pushed together. Dual screen PC on one and my iMac for recording. Eventually I would like a single desk that could handle both. a table seems like a good option.

    Have I been "pharma" hacked?

    Thanks @CCarter and @builder! After doing a little more research on browsing as Google, I saw people mentioning using Google Translate (Spanish to English) on a page. Testing that out on IP Chicken does show a Google IP address. Not sure if there is any value to that in finding cloaked pages...

    Have I been "pharma" hacked?

    I've got some newb questions. Is there a particular Google bot user agent you should use, or will any one work? I'm guessing you have to add it as a custom user agent. What do you put in as the indicator flag? I tried making one below, no idea if this is correct though:

    Image repeater with ACF pro doesn't show the Wordpress image sizes

    Thanks, this worked great! I ended up echoing it like this: <img class="aligncenter" src="<?php echo $image[0]; ?>" alt="<?php echo $alt_text ?>" />

    Image repeater with ACF pro doesn't show the Wordpress image sizes

    I made an image repeater with ACF pro but it doesn't show the wordpress image sizes. Is there a setting or component I'm missing or is this not an option with the ACF image field?

    The Hard Times Black Friday Deal Troll

    The punk rock and hardcore satire site, The Hard Times, is running a Black Friday promo code playing off of the phrase "poser". One facebook commenter expressed how this promo wasn't punk. He continued with a lengthy rant on how consumerism ruins everything and what it truly means to be punk...
