Facebook angst

This morning someone I know and respect was taken in by a hoax (urban myth). I recalled first reading it in a text-only context, that is before the World Wide Web! The only major “improvement” in all those years was adding some photos.


(Cute rat photo shamelessly stolen from Hoax Slayer.)

Of course there is always an element of truth in a good hoax. For the soda/pop cans, that the contents are high in sugar (which can screw up your metabolism), phosphoric acid (cola beverages, can rob your bones of calcium), artificial flavors, colors, sweeteners, etc.

The one about the death due to a bite from a spider that was hiding under a toilet (outhouse) seat appeals in the same way that we find watching scary movies entertaining. Others use emotional appeals: sending a card to the child with cancer, posting in solidarity with Blackhorse Marines for an action in 2010.

A relative also got taken in by one of those “Facebook has removed this post! Share it before it gets removed again!” posts.

Disclosure time. I have managed databases and web sites for many years. There are commands in languages that have been around since the 1960s that can handle stuff like that nicely:

DELETE FROM table name WHERE column ...

You can build filters to keep such posts from appearing or schedule automatic cleanup runs. If you look at the text below the photograph, there are several giveaways.

Facebook has removed this post! Share it before it gets removed again!

THIS IS WHAT THE CONFEDERATE FLAG IS ALL ABOUT! HONOR AND RESPECT!
HERITAGE! NOT HATRED!
Can I get an Amen?
#StopTheHate

  1. If the post has been removed, how are you able to see it?
  2. The date is July 2015 — that means that the post has been up for over two years!
  3. Come on, what about “dog whistle” phrases do you not get?

I guess that means that the person who has been taken in and shared it assumes that the Facebook staff are really stupid (they are NOT) or careless.

So they tricked an ethical person into feeling righteous and spreading symbols of hate and racism.

Sad, very sad.

Because Feedburner seems to have become the unwanted stepchild at Google, I am looking at some other options for email subscribers. Check out the Subscribe section in the right column (Widget) or below the Contact Form — uses a shortlink.

For Thelma – XLS file to TablePress

Tables imported into TablePress smoothly, only had to delete two empty columns that came over.

Main issue I see is that in single post view, the right side of the table overlaps the right sidebar unless you enable horizontal scrolling, probably a theme issue. Would probably work better on a Page, perhaps with a custom template.

More WordPress stuff

Reasons not to trust the Visual Editor.

Below is a script that creates a button:


All I did was paste the code into the Text Editor.

But when I switch to the Visual Editor:

<script>// <![CDATA[
function goBack() { window.history.back() }
// ]]></script>
<button onclick=”goBack()”>Go Back</button>

Aha, now you see the code I pasted in to create the button. The Visual Editor has kindly encoded the angle brackets so that the code no longer works.

Also, I just cleaned up some posts and pages from a Visual Editor fan. There were a bunch of empty heading tags in amongst the content. Another big no-no. WordPress uses the H1 tag for your site name and the H2 tag for your Post or Page title. It isn’t just about fonts!

back button test

Adding a back button script seems to be more meaningful placed in a widget area so it appears on all pages and posts. But, here it is in a post.


Although it looks pretty, it actually works if you put it in a Widget area.
