Is there a way to hide your e-mail address on Google Code projects? - privacy

One thing that really bothers me about Google Code is that fact that it puts your Google username up on your projects for the world to view. While it doesn't put the #gmail.com part after the name, it doesn't take a genius spammer to concatenate the part with your user name.
Is there any way to hide or obscure your Google username on Google Code projects?

According to this, no. But post 75 does mention nicknames being a work in progress.

RobertCollier4's suggestion is not very good, because the other 2 options are not good either. The three options are:
Username display
When I participate in projects, show my identity as:
BillGatesMS
Google Account username
billgatesms#gmail.com
Email address
bil...#gmail.com
Obscured email address for non-project members (project members see full email)

Yes, there is now.
Go to:
https://code.google.com/hosting/settings and change option for "Username display - When I participate in projects, show my identity as."

Is it possible to customise the Docusign Iframe and avoid signers to have to enter their information?

Recently I have been looking into some different API for signing documents online, what I am looking for is one that has a customisable Iframe to avoid breaking the already established style of our website.
I would have wanted to know if Docusign proposes this kind of service.
For example, if we would just have the pdf file and a spot to sign, that would be perfect.
I hope I was clear enough with my question, thanks for your possible answers.
EDIT: I would have also liked to know if there is a way for the signer to not have to enter his personal information/sign in. One where that information is entered by us when the procedure is created.
Is it also possible to change the size of the zone where the signer signs, I was some other signing API's proposed it, but haven't seen it on Docusign.
How can I also change the language of the Iframe and disable the automatic mobile version.
Thanks for spending the time reading and helping me with these questions.
You can use an iframe for the signing when you use "embedded signing" in your integration. This is a common scenario and the signer won't have to log-in.
Even when using an email, most people just click on a link and they don't need to log in to DocuSign in order to sign.
The Docusign Iframe isn't 100% customisable, but you can remove some little extra UI with &noDownloadPrint=true&appname=docusignit, or add &disable_cc_for_selfsign=true to remove the "Sign and Return". From the creation of the Docusign EnvelopeAPI, you can't change the language of the Iframe.

Is it possible to use a "confirm your email" options in google forms?

What I mean is during or after form is complete, send an email to the user to respond so he could confirm the address is a real one.
Not much of an answer, but I've used Google Forms a few times and I don't think I've ever seen that option. You might want to try a different platform (such as Survey Monkey, although I don't know if they offer that feature either) or develop something to do that follow-up for you.
Google Forms does this automatically, you just need to open the form you want to modify go to settings and select the first option that is something like "allow only one answer". Bear in mind that this will require that your respondants to login into the google services, and if they don't have a google account they will need to create one.

Personalized protected frontend content on a "per User" base in Wordpress

For a current project i need to provide some of the client's clients (you go it? =) some kind of protected frontend content area. This area should hold protected content on a "per User"-base.
For example: Tom from (lets call the company EXCORP) wants to provide User A with a document (PDF) and some Text (HTML-Content). But(!) User B would get a totally different document and maybe some more Text. User C would possibly not get a document at all.
This Game goes on for circa another 150 users or so. So going by "default" roles doesn't work here, since i would have to create one user-role per user and that would definitely overkill it. And all the Membership Plugins i've found do not work that way.
Just to make that clear: This thing only goes one way. Meaning, Client-Supporter Tom (in example above) needs to provide all the clients some personalised information. Tom would be a Backend-User. Clients do not need to provide eachother some files or information. Just from one Backend-User to all the different Frontend-Users.
So my question clearly spoken: Is there a way to protect frontend content on a "per User"-base using Wordpress? It doesn't matter to me if I get it to work the "hacky" way, or by a premium/free plugin, as long as it is safe (I will use SSL of course). I just don't want to develop a plugin from scratch, though my client would never speak the budget to pay for it!
There are a lot of themes outhere that offer front end user dashboard, you can use one of thoes themes to have everything set up (user redirected to his/hers dashboard at login).
At this point you have many ways to acchive what you need, if it's not too much trobule to remember what user received what info you can simply add a user-box in post-creation/edit backend where Tom can create a post, attach files to it and asign it to another user(throw the user box).
Publishing the post as private and changing the author from Tom to the end-user should make your work much more easier.
P.S. Check classifieds themes to see how backend works the main difference between thoes and what you'll have to achieve is that the post is craeted by Tom but asigned to the user (very easy to do) and that the post MUST BE PRIVATE!!! don't forget this if the data is sensible!
I realize this is an old question, but thought this might help others. You could try using wp-document-revisions along with the members plugin to achieve what you are looking for.
Good luck.

How do I allow users to display LinkedIn profiles on my site?

I have a site (using PHP and JavaScript with jQuery) which allows users to display a profile, and I would like them to have the option of simply importing their LinkedIn profile, if they have one, rather than having to type everything in again.
I'm not sure what the best approach is here... I've read some of the LinkedIn API documentation, but I'm not even really sure which bit I need to look at.
The process should be:
User goes to profile management page
User is shown a checkbox saying "use my LinkedIn profile", and a textarea. If they don't want to type their profile into the checkbox, they check the checkbox, and somehow their Linked In profile is retrieved.
The LinkedIn profile is stored (or some kind of id is stored), so that the profile can be retrieved by anyone else at any time.
I'm not very familiar with the LinkedIn API, or with the site itself, so I'm not even sure what's possible. Does this sound possible, and if so, where do I start?
You can start with the User Profile tutorial here:
http://developer.linkedinlabs.com/tutorials/jsapi_profile/
The example uses jquery so it should be pretty easy for you to extend this to do what you want.

Web Page with User Info

I have a (ASP)web page where the logged in user(customer) can change their contact info. i.e essentially the page will display one user at a time from the SQL DB.
I initially designed the web Page with textboxes & used HTML tables for formatting.
Now user has added multiple phone numbers (0-8 types). Maybe email addresses will be several too.
The phone nos / Email IDs will be stored in separate tables, so really there is no limit on how many phone numbers each customer can have.
I am wondering if I should use the textboxes for the address part & use dropdownlists for phone nos & email addresses. Also the HTML tables are becoming unmanageable as client wants to use the page to show some other information too. VS2008 keeps adding styles although I am using CSS
Alternatively, I can use a Detail view /Forms View.
What will be a good design to display the user info?
Usability is indeed a tough thing to make all users comfortable with, and the more information they have to add, the more use there is for proper setups.
I'm a bit curious about what type of site this is? Most of the sites I've helped develop over the years where users should be able to add multiple email adresses was mostly social networks where they had personal email, yahoo, msn etc. If it is this type of information, then make a textbox for each of these type of special emails. Same goes for phone nummbers -- it's been a lot of personal phoneno, work related phone, direct landline, cellphone etc. It all really depends on what type of site these user profiles are on.
If it's corporate userprofiles where they have to add clientell emails, it might be a good idea with a dropdownlist or even better, a gridview where you can edit the rows since you develop in ASP.NET.
Hope this helped give you an idea on how to handle the informations on the userprofiles :)
