Thunderbird is taking over all outgoing mail – send to, even though it is not set as the default email program in Windows 10

Posted on June 3, 2021 by James

I use Outlook as my default email client, but occasionally I use Thunderbird. Even though Outlook is set as the default in Windows 10, in many programs when I use the “Send as email”, “Send To” function it brings out a Thunderbird dialog box instead of Outlook. If I uninstall Thunderbird then it works correctly. How do I prevent Thunderbird from taking over this function even when it’s not set as the default?

Answer:
Please check registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Clients\Mail
‘Start’ > Run > type regedit Locate this registry entry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Clients\Mail on right side double click on ‘Default’ Enter Microsoft Outlook in ‘Value Data’

If Data = Thunderbird, then change it to Microsoft Outlook.
Name = (Default)
Type = REG_SZ
Data = Microsoft Outlook

How to Test Your Pixel Events on a Mobile Device

Over-Reporting – Make sure that “Track Events Automatically Without Code” is set to OFF

Posted on February 14, 2020 by James

This is the most common cause of the over reporting problem, so don’t ignore this step.

Open your Facebook Ads Manager top menu and look for “Events Manager”. Click on the link and click on the Pixel ID you have installed on your website.

Click on “Settings” (left side menu) and scroll down until you find an option called “Track Events Automatically Without Code”. Make sure it is turned OFF.

What “Track Events Automatically Without Code” option does?

When this option is turned ON, Facebook’s intelligent algorithm will try to “guess” what your users are doing. It will automatically associate actions to standard events, figuring out when things like add to cart or purchases occur.

The problem is that if your Facebook Pixel already fires those events, you will end up with the same data being reported multiple times.

If you implement your Facebook Pixel with Pixel Conversion Pro that tracks all your pixel events, you must turn OFF “Track Events Automatically Without Code”.

Important

Why is Facebook over-reporting purchases?

The most common cause is that you have “Track Events Automatically Without Code” turned ON. Make sure when using Pixel Conversion Pro that this setting is turned OFF for all Pixel ID’s.

Force Browser Refresh for CSS Files, Normal Images and Background images

Posted on January 7, 2020 by James

Here are my examples for forcing the web browser to display your most current updates for CSS Files, Normal Images and your Background images. Remember you will need to change the version numbers each time you want your new changes to be forced to everyone viewing your app or web page.

Test Code Examples:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="test.css?v=1234">
<img src="images/test.jpg?v=1234" alt="Test">
background: url(../images/test.png?v=1234);

Advanced Automated CSS:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/test.css?<?=filemtime('css/test.css');?>">

Again, just change the ?v=1234 to a new number like ?v=1235

Third Party Payment Gateway Systems

Posted on December 27, 2019 by James

Are you using a Third Party Payment Gateway System? Sorry but we are not integrated with any third party payment systems. You can always try a third party payment system but when testing using The Facebook Pixel Helper and you don’t see the Purchase Pixel on the Thank You Page then it doesn’t work then all we can do is recommend using the Standard payment methods built into Shopify.
