Not even sure how to ask this question
Comments (8)Have you tried dragging it back to the bottom? Just grab it with your mouse and pull it back. boy, I scared myself because I moved mine to make sure that would work. LOL First, right click on the toolbar. See if "lock Toolbar" is checked. If it is, uncheck it. then grab the toolbar with your mouse and 'drag' it back to the bottom. Then right click the toolbar again, and check off "lock toolbar"...See MoreHouzz wants you to shop not ask questions regarding horticulture

Comments (15)PoohBearLvr - I have one suggestion for you. Bring your Aeonium Kiwi indoors for the summer. We have too much humidity during their dormant period. I have watched several Aeoniums - with a Kiwi being my first - slowly decay away. Roots still looked alright, but the plant couldn't take the heat and humidity. Kind of like me! I bring mine indoors when the temp is consistently 85+, usually by mid June. They sit in front of a south facing window and I did not withhold water when they are indoors because they dried out too much from the AC. So I watered every 2-3 weeks, judging for myself if they needed a drink. Someone on this forum suggested I try treating my plants like above. So far it has worked well. And I'm ready to get another Kiwi! Good luck!...See MoreAsk for more security for your Houzz account
Comments (17)Of course I would not want someone else posting on Houzz under my credentials but more importantly it is the acquisition of my personal information, bit by bit, from a variety of on-line sources that at some point can lead to a perfect storm. Off the top of my head I would bet that in ones Houzz account, at the least, there is listed one's name and email address. So say your Houzz account has been comprised (say because of a poorly chosen password or the like). And this piece of information ie email address, coupled some other "pieces of the identity puzzle", say the through social engineering ie "data mining" which results in more personal information e.g. address, confirmation of your (full) name or maybe even a cell phone # (maybe gotten through FB or some other social media sites or other forums that one might belong to under the same username and or email address). Having these two pieces of information really opens up the possibilities for "bad things" to more easily happen. For example one such scam that has been in the news lately is "The number porting/sim swapping scam": https://www.iheartradio.ca/cjad/news/fraud-alert-you-might-want-to-know-what-a-port-out-phone-scam-is-1.10036931 Please do a search for more such examples. This scam is happening with great enough regularity that "LAWMAKERS ASK FCC TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT SIM SWAPPING" ie (from January 8 2020): https://duo.com/decipher/lawmakers-ask-fcc-to-do-something-about-sim-swapping With your email and "them" in control of your cell #, the "hacker" can do a partial login to other sites that you might consider of more value to you...say your email account. And when they select the option "forget password", and with you having 2FA enabled but with the SMS option being the second factor then that code is viewable by the hacker, letting them get into your email account. For me that would be disastrous. Of course one can argue that can never happen to "me". Fine. But I want the option to better secure my personal information found in my Houzz account....See MoreUser
