Getting Started with LiveCode video tutorials? - livecode

How to view the free "Getting Started with LiveCode" video course? The first time I got access to it by entering my username and email into the form (the form in http://livecode.com/download/ that says "Start Making Apps Today. Free instant access to an incredible learning course."), and now I can't find any link on livecode.com where I can view it. And I can't enter my user name and email into the form, it says that "This email is already associated with a LiveCode account, log in here instead", but I've already logged in.

Instead of livecode.com/download/, have you tried logging in at the main url (livecode.com)? If the video course is something that you ordered, it's most likely associated with your account, and might accessible from there. If you continue to have trouble getting in, perhaps try a different browser.
Recently, they've been moving things around on their site (or have the appearance of this anyway) so most things aren't where they used to be.

Gmail - Link to Draft in non-conversation view

I am importing/creating drafts in Gmail using the Gmail API. After creation I'd like to redirect the user to the Gmail UI with the opened Draft in the composer window.
I made it work properly for https://mail.google.com/mail/#drafts?compose=[MESSAGE ID]. Other urls I found here also worked well. Gmail is doing some redirects and eventually the composer window is opened with the draft.
Now my issue:
If the user has not enabled "Conversation view" this will not work at all. The redirect will then result in https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#drafts?compose=new and only an empty, new composer window is shown and a new draft is created by the UI.
If I open the draft directly the ID-format is different. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#drafts?compose=hJzgZpSqgLQcCWgZqnlNRzRBfMbjZVnZklzvcFxhQCdwT... and I have no idea if this format can be generated somehow.
Does anybody has an idea or experience to also make it work with this UI setting. How I can force Gmail to load the draft into the composer window?
Thanks in advance.
If you have Email Threading > Conversation View enabled
Make use of the following URL
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox?compose=DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID
If you have disabled the Email Threading > Conversation View option
Make use of the following URL
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID
Additional information
The main difference between them is that the first is treated as a conversation while the second example is not.
You can use #drafts instead of #inbox in the URL.
The number after .../mail/u/ is the session you have opened
You can retrieve the DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID by making a request to the API
You can approximately generate the compose ID by yourself, there are some examples out there (not recommended). I strongly recommend you to use the DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID instead.
This appears to still be an issue the one solution I did find was that you can find your draft directly (even though it would be the last draft) and go through multiple accounts by redirecting to
https://accounts.google.com/AccountChooser?authuser={user account}&Email={email account}&continue=https://mail.google.com/mail/#search/rfc822msgid:CAMU-31NcJCVHyGNsAycRKfuS0nMonoaZ6wFMD90Sej996qjuPQ#mail.gmail.com
You need to get your message id toi replace the area from <> from your draft. So you'll have to create the draft first. Get the google message ID, then use that with messages/get to get the Global Message Id (also referred to as message id) and then use that with a search. At this point you'll open a page with a search to a single draft but it will not be opened. Your users will have to click on the one message. Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to have the good way work for conversation view, and this way work for non.
I tried many different URLS and nothing worked. As noted in the original question, it might work that you could link to the full URL but I see no way to get that. If you spend long enough working with an email you'll even find that ID changes so they aren't even stable within a single day.
Another solution that could work is as explained:
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID
But as noted this does not open the draft on the first time you go there. It seems you have to travel to that link 2 times in a row to get the message to appear. I guess you could go to the page maybe inject some javascript to go to the page again but I don't know how to do that.

Instagram: unable to create client in Manage Clients

The problem is that in Manage Clients at https://www.instagram.com/developer/clients/manage/ client was created,
but it became invalid, the id did not work, i.e. instagram disabled it, the inscription was disabled.
We decided to delete the old client and create a new One, but instagram does not register it. The line of consent and the captcha does not issue. Respectively writes 2 errors:
1.Incorrect Captcha. Try again.
2.Error sending: fill in all required fields.
How can this be corrected?
I've had this same issue, and haven't been able to get anywhere with it. The support page for Instagram says to report a bug using the "Report Bug" button on the Developer Dashboard (http://instagram.com/developer/clients/manage/). If you click that button it takes you to a form that asks if you want to report a bug for the old API or new API. If you select the old API it says "we're not taking bug reports for the old API", if you select new API it takes you to Facebook's developer support page. I created a ticket there, and they told me I had to report it through Instagram's support links. WTF?? That's what I did .....
Anyways, the problem is related to a bunch of javascript errors on that client registration page. I first encountered this problem about 3-4 weeks ago, and it's still around. Feels like IG really doesn't give a crap about their developer community ....

How to track last login date for IBM Domino web user?

Does IBM Domino track the last login date for web users(UserName/Password and internet certificate)? I know the access logs contains this information but wanted to know if there may be something built into Domino (maybe in Address Book). Trying to come up with a method to disable web accounts that have not accessed a domino server in a specified time period.
Thanks,
Kev
The User Activity area in the Database Properties picks up from the log.nsf, which is where this information is stored. But, typically, the log.nsf will only have a few days' worth of information. When I've had this requirement before, I've manually captured it via a custom login page or an initUser function I've had in applications.
One of the easiest solutions is to trigger an action from a live web page that generates a database.nsf?openagent event.
like:
or
Ideally you've use the openagent to print a content type and a response, but if you don't browsers do pretty well with invalid responses from servers.
inside your "myagent" you will have the users name available to you to write it to a document.
Your next challenge will be in getting the agent to trigger, but, not too often, ideally only on login.
When a user uses a custom login form it submits the username/password and redirection url in POST method. You could change that to ...?openagent&nexturl=/blablabla.nsf
Your tiny little agent would run one and only one time upon login and update a document in a your custom logging database.
That's a developer's solution.
There are also admin solutions. The server does keep track of active web sessions, but, it does not drop them into the log.nsf like it does upon session ending for a notes session. I don't think it would be too much work from an admin standpoint to get that information there are a lot of event triggers available to you. It's just been way too long since I worked on any server that anyone cared about statistics.

Libspotify: There was an error generating your application key

I have a premium Spotify account and I am trying to generate an application key to use with libspotify. I am doing this using the form here: https://developer.spotify.com/technologies/libspotify/request-key/, but the generation of the key always fails with a message "There was an error generating your application key".
I tried formatting my application name differently (e.g., spaces, no spaces, no dashes, etc), but the outcome is still the same.
Not sure if it's of any relevance, but I am logged in through facebook and my user name on the application form is shown as a number.
Is it possible that there is something wrong with my account ?
Thanks in advance,
-Kal.
I suspect that something is up with the API key registration page. I've filed an internal bug report with the team that maintains that (I work at Spotify), and hopefully it'll be up and running soon! I'll update this answer if it turns out to be something other than that.
Edit: The error was on Spotify's website, everything seems to be working again.

LIKES done by me on my own page don't show up anymore after making an app to post to my page's fanpage

I really hope someone can tell me more about what's going on, because I spent days searching the net and for the life of me can't say what is going on.
Here's what happened. I have a website 4nieuws.nl . On every article's page I put a like button using the Javascript SDK. All worked well. On facebook I created a fanpage for the website, facebook.com/4nieuws and every now and again I would copy an interesting article there. The like button and Javascript SDK on 4nieuws.nl uses the APP Id from an app I created specifically for that purpose.
Then I thought I might automate to publish the most popular articles on the fanpage using the PHP api. I set about getting the proper authorization key using the sequence explained on this page: http://www.typeoneerror.com/articles/post/permanent-facebook-sessions-and-posting-as-a-page
For this to work I authorized the previously mentioned app to publish on the facebook fanpages that I am admin of. And this works.
Now for the strange part. Ever since I authorized the app, if I go to 4nieuws.nl and like a page, or even 'post to facebook', the button shows 1 more like. But the like message never shows up on my personal wall. My wife, logged in to her own facebook account, gets a notification that I liked a page, but when she clicks the notification she is sent to a Facebook 404 page. When I subsequently reload the article, my 'like' is not there anymore.
Has anyone ever come across something like this ? I'm a bit anxious because I am not sure if other peoples likes on 4nieuws.nl are working as it should. I do see likes on pages but have no idea if those likes are actually registering on peoples walls.
Any help greatly appreciated.
