I am trying to create a link from my website to my skype profile. I saw this post by Alex Turpin Create application link to Skype profile. This works fine, When skype link is clicked it goes straight to my skype profile.
However if the skype link(Link to my profile) is clicked while the user is not logged-in skype, this fails(skype client crash).
So I removed 'userinfo' from this link(<a href="skype:profile_name?">) and tried again, Skype did not fail, it asked me to login, but after that it made a skype call instead of viewing the profile.
How can I resolve this? How to view a skype profile succesfully while user is not loggged-in skype.
Thanks.
I am afraid this is Skype's problem, it happens on all Skype versions. I reported this issue to them.
For now we can try a work-around(like Marin suggested in the answer below).
The following actions still works even if a user is not logged-in skype, try using one of them until we get a proper solution for this issue.
Text to call
Text to chat
Text to leave a voice mail
Text to send a file
Text to add to contacts
This question is quite intriguing.
The problem could be in Skype version or in Skype in general (or windows?). I've tested it with my current version which is 7.3.0.101 on Windows 8.1 and it's crashes as you said. You can report this to Skype support, but untill this is fixed (or you find any solution), I suggest you to try some workaround like
Link to my profile
Or you can try whatever action you like, but I think chat for now would be OK.

HTML novice here stumbling around with modifying some email code that put together using some online generators and such. I am trying to send an email to customers with an embedded link that will automatically open the iOS app store "redeem" button for an app that I have gifted them.
The link to accomplish this for a given "gifted app" is as follows:
itms-apps://buy.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/freeProductCodeWizard?code=PROMOCODEHERE?mt=8
This link works fine when clicked from iMessage, apple Notes, etc on iPhone (I.e., opens the app store and just has a redeem button, thus allowing the person to directly install the app to their phone). It would also work just fine if you remove the itms-apps:// portion and the user defaults to Safari browser - the issue I'm trying to avoid is if they use a non-default browser (Chrome, etc) so that the link goes direct to app store.
Within the email, I'm using the following (the itms-apps:// link is technically called from a variable, but I've tried it with and without variable to no success). The email sends and the button this link is in just does nothing on iPhone, isn't tappable etc.
TAP FROM iOS TO INSTALL
So far, as mentioned I've tried
Removing the variable which calls in the promo code app store link
Using a URL encoder to make sure special/reserved characters aren't an issue (result looks like the following)
TAP FROM iOS TO INSTALL
... but these options aren't working. Would love any thoughts as to how to approach this! Thanks in advance.

I m trying to create an app on Vimeo web but it prompts that "verify your email first" I have already verified the email.
Please help me outenter image description here
Go to your https://vimeo.com/settings and verify your email address.
If you're unable to do so, contact Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/help/contact.
The problem is when you try to create your first app on the "My Apps" page. I got the same error OP described.
The solution is to go to any other page where you still see the "Create App" button at the top right. For example: https://developer.vimeo.com/
This worked for me. I doubt Vimeo support even knows about this bug.
I am searching for a best way to show WeChat profile in app after user click on link on some website.
I found some solution here but it's not working for me.
For example I tried these URIs:
link
Or in href attribute:
weixin://contacts/profile/{wechatId}
It's not working for me. After I click on this, WeChat app is opened and immediately closed. Or it show me not found error on Tips tab..
Is there some way to do it?
I think WeChat has not public profile webpage like facebook for now, you can only access other people's profile in the WeChat app by scanning a QR code or search by WeChat id/phone number. The code snippets that you mentioned above has been discarded by WeChat Official(But you may still can see it in some old official documentations).
If you still want to achieve this function, I recommend you just post your QR code in your webpage.
However, some people using the weixin:// as a bug to link WeChat to others apps. You still can generate a tickets like weixin://dl/business/?ticket=***. The *** contains your wechatid and is encrypted by some specific algorithms, which is not opened by WeChat official. And also, buying some third-part server tickets like this to get the jump link works for now but not stable.
Is there anyway to install an extention without visiting to google app store?
For example I want visitors, can install my extention just one clicking a facebook ad or a banner?
Is it possible?
I read some article that mentioning about to verified site ownership to do this. But I want to make advertisement on facebook so I wouldn't be owner of the web page...
Does anyone have information on this subject?
Thanks.
Right click on the Chrome shortcut
In the Target field, add --enable-easy-off-store-extension-install after what's already there, let a space before
Save and start Chrome
You're probably looking for inline installation, performed via chrome.webstore.install.
In your webpage:
include <link rel="chrome-webstore-item" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/itemID">, where the URL is the address of your extension
then. call chrome.webstore.install().
Unfortunately, you can't do either of those things on a basic Facebook page, but you could do it on a web page you can fully control.
I have a share button on my website, I understand that the link is www.facebook.com/share.php?u=myurl. And everything works fine, but how do what it says when you click it, right now it shows my website and then "Coming Soon - Future home of something quite cool"... I did try adding &t=mytitle but nothing changed. Bellow is a screenshot. Thank you.
I'll start with informing you that the facebook "sharer" has been deprecated and is no longer supported as it states here:
The Share button has been deprecated in favor of the Like button, and
will no longer be supported. Please use the Like button whenever
possible to drive maximum traffic to your apps.
And here:
What happened to the old Share button?
We deprecated the Share Button when we launched the Like button,
because the Like button improves clickthrough rates by allowing users
to connect with one click, and by allowing them to see which of their
friends have already connected.
You should use the Like or Send buttons instead.
As for the content that is being presented in the feed, you can control that by adding open graph tags to the page you wish users to share, when facebook crawls your page it extracts those tags and creates the feed story.
In order to debug and see how facebook "sees" your page you can use the Facebook Debugger which will also clear the cache facebook already has for your page.
