WEBMASTERS!! What kind of script do you want for free!
 

I want to write a free script that a lot of webasters need.
Hopefully they will click on my referral links in the scipt and I can earn some money for my efforts.

BUT; what kind of script do you really need?

Thanks

it would be neat to have a script that checks all your sponsors ratios at once. :thumbsup :1orglaugh

Doesn't "Stats Remote" do that already?

How about a script that evaluates all the news articles for the day and suggests photo shoot ideas.

Explain.

Are you saying that the photo shoot ideas should be based on trends in the news?

Bump....

I need one, written in PHP, which will synchronize two databases residing on the same server.
Configuration must allow for a date to be set which will only synchronize entries older than X days (in valid MySQL DATETIME format).

kthx!

Another one:
Need a script written in PHP which will connect to proxy list sites (which I define) via CURL, grabs all the IP addresses listed in the proxy list(s) and inserts them into a MySQL database table. This way, I can ban any hits from these proxies.

Why does it have to be in PHP?

PHP is just another language to do the same stuff that is done in a bunch of other languages.

StatsRemote or UnifiedStats in a php/mysql version would be great. Then Mac OS X users could just run that.

I would like to do something new. Statsremote could issue a php version so I don't think I should do that.

Come on, you must need something else besides stats.

A trade script that will work on say 10, 20, 50 or 100 domains, will support various niches and requires only one installation / admin area

I wanna free smartthumbs clone.I think that should'nt be toohard.I was even want to do that bymyself but i just dont have time for it.

Now were getting some where! I will put this idea at the top of the list but I would like to hear more before I decide on what to make.

That one from superman 3 that rounds off payroll checks of major corporations to the nearest dollar and deposits the change in an offshore hidden account for my personal benefit. Thanks. :thumbsup

How about a voting script that can help market affilaite sites?

The voting script should allow surfers to vote on their favorite site or model (once a day), everyday until a winner is determined.

A voting script similar to www.nnvote.com

I did that a few years ago and released it right when the 2257 shit scared the shit out of everybody and they changed their thumb TGPs into text. :1orglaugh

Plus it seemed like everybody who got the script didn't want any new sponsors since I didn't get a single webmaster referral sign up from about 50 sponsors I had embeded in the script.

I might revive this script though...I'll think about it.

a stats script.
BUT it needs to run on multiple domains/sites with only one installation. it should collect the stats by adding "auto_prepend_file /path_to_script.php" to each sites htaccess file.
of course should the script have as much details as possible. with the option to see each visitors history.

and if you'll create a script like this i'll promise i'll signup with your codes... :pimp

That's an easy one for me to do; I can pull most of the code from stuff I already have. So I will probably do sometihing like that.
It seems like only a small niche though and I would like something that 1000 webmaster really need.

something like this...

I don't see a need to use PHP; I can do more without it.

Is there a reason why you need PHP?

A free, easy to use fake TGP tool.

Something where I can enter an admin, add a link to a gallery, add a description and add a thumbnail (bonus points if I can crop the thumbnail straight from the admin). Then, I can simply put a few lines of code to show sections of say four rows by six columns (customizable). And then every day or every two days, it rotates new galleries.

If it tracked clicks out and gave the option to create a section of the most popular galleries, that would be awesome.

nope... no special reason...
what do you have in mind instead?

Great idea; but I will skip this one because I would have to get a lawyer to make sure the software met all requirements of the 2257 law.
Otherwise, I would be putting webmasters at risk of non-compliance.

The example i used was for solo model sites but you can apply it to vote on entire sites as an interactive tool for surfers. Then it would open it up to thousands of webmasters in many niches.

Because it will be integrated with a bunch of other stuff written in PHP

Reliable and comfortable counter for traffic with all kinds of filters, graphs etc.

I need free linklist script :D

I most likely would use C or PERL but it just depeneds on which is easiest for the task.

So far I choosing between a "Stats script" and Fake TGP script.

Would still like to see something I haven't thought of that you guys could use.

How about an open source members area CMS that kicks ass! I haven't found any robust CMS's that you don't have to pay free or even a decent price. Most will be couple thousand dollars.

I also say a voting script. One that uses ajax, but degrades gracefully. Should be fully templated for easy integration.

An autothumb script that detects skin tones and creates the best thumb from a given picture and thumb dimensions.

The target webmasters for that would be less interested in clicking sponsor referral links so it's not a good free script.

I'm missing the point about skin tones.

It should detect skin in the image so it can crop the best area of the picture instead of doing a fixed area crop.

pretty good idea actually :thumbsup

I still don't understand why people still fuck with perl. Why not use Ruby or Python? Particularly with Ruby, the ActiveRecord class is insanely useful for a variety of database tasks. I have no idea why more people are utilizing, or interested in it. Also, Ruby has RMagick for images, RMovie for ffmpeg-esque shit.

I like the sounds of this.




How about a fully tweakable geo-ip system for multi language/site banners, text, images etc.
