Maybe these days you have realized that when you are looking at some domain description it appears an star rating in the title bar.
This rating system works as follows :
- If you are not logged in, you just can see the current rating
- If you are logged, you can rate the domain as you please. (From 0 if it's very bad or 100 if you consider it a very good domain)
Well, I've just rated my domain with a 100 and it shows 52% instead of 100%, is it a bug?
NO, it is not a bug. The global rating is calculated counting on the number of votes the domain has. This is because if you had hundreds of ratings giving you a 100 and only one giving you a 90 the mean would be less than 100, and if a new domain, just rated once, is rated with 100 it would have a better rating than your domain.
As much ratings you have, your global rating will become more exact.
As you have noticed, these days SocialDNS has been experimenting few changes and improvements. Now the user session still remains even closing the navigator and you can rate domains as well as many other little performance features and bugfixing. All these changes have been uploaded in the new version of socialdns (1.0.3) that you can find in the SocialDNS project in SourceForge.
New version, new manual, new features!
Today a new version of the SocialDNS node has been released, it comes with a revised manual explaining in deep how to configure your own SocialDNS node, and many new features such as:
- Geographic search
- Channels for your domains
- The "module_rewrite" is not needed anymore
- Several bugfixing
We hope that you enjoy!
SocialDNS team.
The growing community of SocialDNS now can enjoy with the new location searcher. Just go to the map and select the location that you are interested in and see the domains and users registered near the selected point!
You can filter the output as well (try to put "linux" in the filter box, and you will only see the linux related domains and users), or just display users or domains. You can also select the number of items displayed.
A new version of the firefox plugin has been released too, you can downlad it now!
We hope that you enjoy finding your neighbours in the map!
It has been released a bugfixed revision of the SocialDNS node. Installation manual has been added too.
Today SocialDNS team is proud to announce the first release of the SocialDNS node. The node is the basic component to manage domains and their subdomains. An example of SocialDNS node is this website. From now every one can self manage the domains created and can create new custom subdomains. Of course this release may contain several bugs that will be fixed in future versions.
As you can note, this site is multilanguage. Today Spanish and Catalan translations have been updated. Of course these translations can have typos on them. SocialDNS team will be very thankful if users could report typos or mistakes in translations. To do this you can write a message in the forum or contacting an administrator.
Have you lost your password? No problem! Now you can reset it, and the system will send you a new one to your e-mail account. It is very important to have your e-mail address typed correctly, because it is where the system will send you the new password.
The global map is a powerful tool that allows the SocialDNS users to see the geographic situation of a domain or a user. Today this feature has been improved in order to show more information about the geographic markers displayed. Now the information is accessible directly in the map for a better and faster user experience.
In order to improve the user experience, SocialDNS has changed its view and added new services, such as the RSS channel or the domains cloud. SocialDNS team is developing many other features that will be released soon.
