Do any of you guys use or know of a low cost redaction software that can track and pixelate selected faces. Our village has a kids playground and small football pitch and is suffering from a bit of antisocial behaviour. If we install CCTV and someone makes a Subject Access Request we will need the software to change any video clips we provide.

Thanks .I dont have a DVD after all I had downloaded it initially. I found the email and downloaded it from the Afinity website so all is well. I`n wondering about Draw plus as I have a DVD for that but no dvd player on the laptop
You could buy an external dvd drive with usb 3 for about £12 off amazon.

Boom!! 
Truck load of shampoo is hijacked on the motorway.

Lord Nelson was 5ft 6in.
His statue is 17ft 4in.
That’s Horatio of 3:1.
My grandma rubbed butter on granddad's feet when he was ill. He went downhill fast after that.
I’ve just bought a Humpty Dumpty toy from Aldi. It’s brilliant, it comes with Aldi Kings horses and Aldi Kings men.
But where I live there's a big hill between me and the nearest cellphone tower; in fact reception is very patchy for a mile or so all around. If the broadband went down I'd be completely cut off. (My phone and my internet are both with BT.)
Not all cellphone towers work well across all networks. Here where I am O2 and Vodaphone don't have a good signal even when in sight of the tower, but EE and 3 are excellent. Ask neighbours and friends who they are with and their signal quality. You may need to change your provider.

I remember those terms very well.
And what about slang terms?
Late into the discussion but I don't see any reference to the Half Crown = 2' 6p (slang in Bolton area= half dollar)
Don't remember any slang for a ten bob note.
It is a cunning device to prevent - by choice - people thinking, learning to spell, do arithmetic, learning to research in books and look things up for themselves generally. It tells you things and shows you things, it will write your speech, your essay, the newspaper article you referred to. It will tell you what it want's you to know, that is what your masters want you to know.
It is a crutch for the brain to get used to, and like legs that rely on such will wither away, so too will your brain.
You've hit the nail on the head. I know that some people have asked alexa "Are you listening in to all conversations and where are you sending the information?" I haven't seen any recent answers to this. Anyone on here tried it?
Joe
Thanks Joe
It works very well in X7
I see you too are in Cornwall and that you also use WYSIWYG builder, how do you find it, was it easy to learn?
I have been considering making the switch but as my site has well over 5000 pages I am wary to take the plunge.Regards
chris
Hi Chris,
Glad the search bar is Ok.
As for WYSIWYG web builder, it's reasonably quick to pick up the basics and there are hundreds of tuition type videos to show you what to do, and it will do a hell of a lot more than Webplus especially using the responsive elements. You only need to do one website and then minor tweeks as you view it in tablet, mobile and other views. With 5000 pages it would be a hell of a job depending on how complex they are. You can setup master pages as in Webplus. I'm on version 16 and they are now on version 18 so I presume there are even more bells and whistles added. Their forum is very active with quick accurate answers.
You can download a trial version and give it a run.
Joe
I don't have x7 installed but hopefully this method from x8 may do.
On your page right click the search box > HTML Source
On the page that opens, amongst all the code you may see something like this
$('#site_search_1_input').keypress(function(event) { if ( event.keyCode == 13 ) window.location.href = 'index.html?site_search_results_1='+document.getElementById('site_search_1_input').value+'&depth=0&swr=false'; });
$('#site_search_1_button').click(function(event) { window.location.href = 'index.html?site_search_results_1='+document.getElementById('site_search_1_input').value+'&depth=0&swr=false'; });
You need to find the search box and button ID's, in this instance they are #site_search_1_input and #site_search_1_button
Copy the following and on your page do Insert > HTML Fragment, click on the page and click "Paste to Head"
<style>
#site_search_1_input, #site_search_1_button{
height: 40px !important;
font-size:24px;
}
</style>This will make the search bar and button the same height.
Change the ID's to your ID's - DO NOT remove the comma or space after it.
Change the height to what you need
Change the font size to what you need
Reduce the size of the HTML Fragment and park it somewhere on the page.
Joe
I love this one
One major issue is if your broadband goes down so does the phone. No emergency calls.
Should the broadband go down, BT presently have a Smart Hub2 system that will auto switch the router via a sim to the mobile network to maintain broadband. If that is issued to every broadband installation it would alleviate a lot of issues.
They are saying it's down to the 'Root' folder and my 'home' page isn't down as 'index' but it is.
Just checking, but do your home page properties look like this with index.html as the file name?
Came across this a couple of weeks ago when looking to replace our old DECT phones.

Hi William,
How would the receiver of the message write the unicode character before passing the complete message to it's intended recipient?
Joe
If it's completely gone, then all that invaluable information and support has been lost, and that makes it an even greater disgrace
Yes it's completely gone. Some or perhaps all of the contributors to the old forums who have transfered to here may still have example/demo files, but you need to ask a specific question to find out.
...just abandoning the software and users without a care and then then closing down the support forum
From memory, the WebPlus software could not be modified to keep pace with other emerging responsive software. It needed to be completely rewritten as a new product line. The demise of Webplus was hastened by the departure of the principal programmer/developer. Serif chose to go in a different direction and dump the Plus range.
Hi Carlo,
The screenshots you listed are showing a system that Nigel (nfc212) wrote and used along with a third party grid system (https://github.com/thisisdallas/simple-grid) which he also tweeked. Sadly Nigel is no longer with us, or his files (unless someone on the forum has copies) and to make it work would require some programming.
There are times when it's better to start from scratch and bite the bullet by learning how to use new software. As Alfred has suggested, WYSIWYG Web Builder is a good program https://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/ , I have it and it will do everything you need plus a whole host of other things all out of the box. Yes there is a learning curve but the results are worth the effort.
