In Nichiren Buddhism, we don't have New Years resolutions, we have  Determinations things that we chant daimoku for to achieve and be victorious on. Even outside of Buddhism everyone has known for years by making a list of your determinations or Determinations is the easiest way to accomplish them. Daimokuchart is great for that!

Make a list on Daimokuchart of the things you are Determined to do and see what changes in your life. Best of all its a way to connect with others who are Determined to do the same things as you.

How do I delete a determination?
Go to your list by clicking “Profile” in the top navigation bar or your name near the site search bar. Then find the determination you want to delete, and click on remove and click "Delete" from the dailog box and your done.
 
How do I change my username?
We are sorry to say that at present you can’t change your user name. You can however add a first or last name to your account, and these will display instead of the user name on your posts. To change your display name click "Profile" on the top naviation or click on your name near the site search bar, then click on edit which is to the right of your username. Enter your first and last name and this will be displayed instead of your display name.

Can I put my determination list on my blog?
We're sorry to say not at the present time, but our team is working hard to provide badges and other widgets to display on your blog. Watch http://blog.daimokuchart.com for feature updates.

Why is it called Daimokuchart?
Everything needs a name. But; seriously in Nichiren Buddhism when we chant to the Gohonzon it's called daimoku and we use charts sometimes to keep track of how much daimoku we've done for our determinations. Hense; why we call the site Daimokuchart.

Why would I want to do someone else’s determination?
Other people often have great ideas. You can get inspiration from others. Adopt a determination as your own or set up your own determinations from scratch. Either way, Daimokuchart can help you document your success, share information, and make progress on what matters to you most.

Do I have to pay?
Not today and not in the near future. We think it is important that people who get value out of a community find ways to support that community, but we are commited to finding clever ways to make this happen.

Is this blogging?
No, this is a list of Frequently Asked Questions. What a weird question.

What HTML tags are allowed on Daimokuchart?

Daimokuchart, as you know, uses Markdown. Per the Markdown spec, you are allowed to freely intermix HTML and Markdown tags. We currently allow Markdown in:

•  - progress entries

The "About Me" section of the user profile allows safe HTML only.

We personally feel Markdown is easier than typing angle brackets most of the time, but sometimes going to HTML is useful as well.

We do not allow all HTML tags, as that would be an XSS paradise. To that end, Daimokuchart allows only the following safe, whitelisted subset of HTML tags:

<a>
<b>
<blockquote>
<code>
<del>
<dd>
<dl>
<dt>
<em>
<h1>, <h2>, <h3>
<i>
<img>
<kbd>
<li>
<ol>
<p>
<pre>
<s>
<sup>
<sub>
<strong>
<strike>
<ul>
<br/>
<hr/>

The following attributes are allowed on the <img> tag:

src=""
width="" (up to 999)
height="" (up to 999)
alt=""
title=""

The following attributes are allowed on the <a> tag:

href=""
title=""

HTML tags not on this list are stripped from the output. They may render in the client preview but they will always be removed on the server.You must enter the tags exactly as shown. Any deviation from this list (adding extra spaces, using single quote or no quotes, etc) means the tag will be stripped.

We do not and will not allow table tags -- sorry. This is intentional and by design. If you need a quick and dirty "table", use <pre> and ASCII layout.

However, if there's some other (safe!) tag you think we should allow, I am open to suggestions
