Is isbndb.db working? - isbn

I'm writing a small library application/db, and I'd love to leverage isbndb.com to gather book info. Problem is, it looks like I cannot create a new account there... I always get redirected to a "Please come back later" page.
Same if I go and try to post a question on the contact page (http://isbndb.com/contact).
Sorry if the question is not pertinent... but I'm pretty stuck... I'm not finding much recent posts about isbndb.com... but it looks like the website is working well... :-)

I've looked up the registrant through whois, and contacted him.
The sign up and contact forms are now working again.

Missing ID for GTM with RapidWeaver Stacks website

I'm a total novice when it comes to coding, so I've build my website in RapidWeaver and I'm happy with the result. But when I try to track clicks on my website I run into a problem with a missing ID. Is there any way that I will still be able to track clicks on my website?
I've tried to look at other answers to this, but it all involves a lot of code and I'm so very bad at that.

Creating a wall where people can post comments

I'm not exactly sure what this is called and so I'm not sure how to search for it on google correctly. I tried searching: "How to create a facebook wall swift", "A page where everyone can comment on swift", and "how to make a wall with users being able to post stuff swift". The most results were about Taylor Swift and making a fake Facebook profile. Though some may find this helpful, I, on the other hand, did not :(
So this is what I am trying to accomplish. I want to create a "wall" (I'm sure there is a better terminology for this) where users can post comments. So it's not like a facebook wall where you can post only on another user's "wall". I want a universal wall where any user can post a comment. Could anybody point me to the right direction?
Maybe some part of the Parse documentation or, perhaps, another Stack Overflow post?
This is not swift but C# but at least it can point you to the right direction:
http://www.joshgreenwald.com/journal/make-a-message-board-with-mvc5-and-signalr2
It is using C#, ASP.net MVC, and SignalR. You might want to look up especially this thing called SignalR because people use it to make the wall thing like you said, for instantaneous, real time communications like wallposts and comments.
I recommend using Parse for you backend database. Its super simple and very powerful. You can find some great tutorials for it too. Here's one that's relevant Swift & Parse Twitter like App

Facebook fanpage app liking/login in Rails

More than looking at a exact solution. I'm trying to figure out the whole process and how it works regarding best practices. I have an app (Car Listing) and I would like to register the user for him to be able to post car listing for sale.
The whole idea is that the user must like the fanpage in order to see/browser the content.
I'm wondering; Do I have to create the User model when the likes the fanpage or when he tries to access the car posting page (cars/new) or does the whole process happens through facebook OAUTH?
I'm a fairly experienced web developer but I'm kind of lost when it comes to registration/liking through facebook. Could someone point me in the right direction?
Thank You
For those of you looking for an elegant solution I was able to hit one in the devise wiki.
Here explains step by step on setting up OmniAuth and how the whole process works from a Rails standpoint.

Is there a social plugin to post on walls/tweet directly to a person?

Is there currently a social plugin or a way to post directly to someone's wall or tweet directly at someone?
For example, say I have a list of people on my page:
Nicholas Cage
Robin Williams
Kiss
Pink
Is there a way to post to their wall/tweet without leaving my page? I currently have it set that it opens their page in a new window, but it would be much more usable to be able to do it this way.
You could do that in the background from the server, but if the social site asks for a confirmation, you'll have to go back to the user again. As all top social sites ask for confirmation you would only catch users who confirmed before... If this is worth the effort is up to you.
