meteorpad - For how long sources are stored? - meteor

Q1: I would like to know for how long time a project (url/id) is stable and available on meteorpad.
I would like to create running test pads which can be stored as examples or details for descriptions in issue trackers and knowledge boards like GitHub or MeteorForum.
So if I save a link to the meteorpad project in a post, is this safe that also in next future someone can have a look at this? This would be often much better than just to copy parts of the sources to your own entries.
Q2: Is there a difference (overall pad life time) if you create the pad as a registered user or not?
Thanks for feedback
Tom

Have found the info about the MeteorPad launch on this page : https://www.meteor.com/blog/2014/09/01/meteorpad-meteor-code-playground
Have twitted the created, Mike Risse with your question. I'll let you know if he replies. Or you can check yourself my tweet here : https://twitter.com/geniium/status/593841039783366657
Cheers!

Is it possible to have a NPC offer items only to characters with a certain achievement?

Im looking for a way to add an NPC which sells items based on the achievements a character has. Because of my lack of other coding skills, if at all possible i would like to achieve it with SQL commands, hence modifying the db. I was looking through the conditions page on the wiki but have no idea how to use the provided information.
Also i was backtracing the db regarding the NPC Charles Worth who happens to teach tailors recipes based on achievements they have. I intended to copy this toons conditions, but couldnt find what entries to use.
Any help, clarifying db entries, or pointing to the right direction in another way, is much appreciated.
Please follow this link for the documentation:
https://www.azerothcore.org/wiki/conditions
You can use the source type: "SOURCE_TYPE_NPC_VENDOR" and the condition type: "CONDITION_ACHIEVEMENT" for what you need, how to implement this, you can find that in the link above.
Also, one way to make this easier is to use the tool developer by the azerothcore team, Keira3.
This is a very visual Database Editor and can help you understand what each column do as almost each cell is documented and you have links to the full documentation as well.

Can't find exact api to get all products from ebay to sync with woocomerce

I was planning to build a system where I can sync my product list on ebay to woocommerce and vice-versa.
I have gone through the internet searching this info, but cannot find the same.
I have gone through the API:
https://developer.ebay.com/docs#cat.
But, don't know which is going to work or even I don't know whether I'm searching the right category.
If you know any available plugin or any solution or sample, please refer.
You COULD do it that way, in the same sense that you could build yourself a house if I sent you to a lumber yard.
I think what you're really after is this here. It should do everything you need.
You still can do it using the link you shared, but give yourself a good 6 months at least to get your code written. (Or longer depending on how well you can code.)

Able to get Facebook comments with FQL and Graph App but both present a problem

I am working on a little mobile app for facebook and have been studying the Facebook Api's for weeks now.
My problem I need help with is comments, I have my app retrieving them via post_id/comments?access_token=**&limit=10 but the problem with this way is that the comments are being sent oldest first, so if i wanted to get the newest comments and there were 200 comments i'd have to call the api because of pagination 19 times to get the most recent. Is there any way of telling the graph api to send the newest comments first? I really want to avoid having to get all the comments at once just to sort them myself - sometimes there are over 2000 comments.
I did a little experimenting with fql last night and found I was able to specify ORDER BY time in the query and also LIMIT and less than time to do my own kind of pagination. The problem with this way is that the person name (who had made the comment) isn't returned, only an id for that person. Please correct me if im wrong but that would then mean having to make a call to the api to find out the name of the commenter for each comment made on a post - again sometimes over 2000. I think this is not a solution for mobile.
I just want my app to show comments newest first. Please can any one of any advice?

Airport ticker effect in Adobe trials

When you run an Adobe product in a trial, a window appears each time asking if you have have a serial number yet or if you would like to continue with the trial. Next to that is a lovely 'number ticker', like the ones they used to have at airports (see image).
Does anyone know where I can get one of these, preferably gratis, to use as a component in a flex application?
As promised an version of the flip clock, ready to use on github free of charge. If anyone has request. By all means - ask.
https://github.com/StrangeMother/Flash-AS3-Flip-Clock-display
edit: Sorry aboutt he broken link. Some how the .git at the end of the URL buggered.
I made an app that uses such a feature. Download the air app and take a look. Its just a super simple poker game timer, but it has the feature you require.
if you like it, then I'll sift the code out.
http://pokerblind.strangemother.com/app/data/application/versions/0.1/air/PokerBlind.air
Its a heady mixture of OOP class code and front end. The numerals are a Numeric item in the library of which are managed by a timer class and number counting class. Extendable enough and the graphics should be easy enough to rip apart.
A while back I started working on a component like this. It's not super sexy yet. Check out the code on github:
https://github.com/jamesward/FlipClock
There are a few decent components available for close to free that I've found at activeden.net. They generally include source code so you can change them to meet your exact need. Here's a good example of what you can find there: http://activeden.net/item/flip-numbers/104628
Hope that helps.
A very good looking component can be found here:
http://www.flashcomponents.net/component/sense_flip_clock_3d.html
It does cost 8$, though. :)

Basic examples of InfoGrid applications

I am trying to use this software called InfoGrid for a project that I am building. Can someone please point me to some basic getting started articles. I don't see any documentation on the site.
Peopl with enough reputations, please edit the question and add the tag InfoGrid to this question.
I joined the infogrid mailing list and wrote to the dev team to include a simple getting started article. The dev's have been kind enough to provide the same on their wiki here: http://infogrid.org/wiki/Examples/FirstStep
I am an early user and have some experience I can share. Basically this stuff rocks. It's quite hard to get your head into at first but once once you get past the "aha" it makes complete sense.
