I am sure you are aware that your email subscription system is spamming? Why don't you do something about it?
You have a site which looks professional and obviously has a lot of quality info to offer and intially I subscribed to your mailing list without hesitation, thinking that people who created a site designed to act as an info hub for techies and coders will know how to organize their mailing list to be non invasive.
Such disappointment. After I received the first load of emails I thought "ok this is definitely more than I need, so I'll just unsubscribe, no problem". So far I have unsibscribed (clicked the link at the bottom of your emails) AT LEAST 3 TIMES. I thought that maybe some time was needed for the system to pick up the changes but it has over 2 months now, YET I KEEP GETTING EMAILS from codeproject.com.
If there is no way to fix this problem please delete my account, and I mean DELETE as in real sql delete... obviously you have difficulties setting up your systems properly so if you can not stop the spam please just delete my account. At present the nuisance of having to clean up your spam mail far exceeds the benefits of being a member.

I notice on the C# Forum, that more messages seem to "fit this profile:"
1. the poster is a relative newcomer to CP
2. the poster is obviously at a "larval" stage in learning to use C#, and obviously has not bothered to search either CP, or the web, on the "how do I do this" topic they are posting on.
3. the poster is obviously not interested in discussing the C# language, and its structure, and idiosyncrasies.
4. the poster gets a "quick fix" from somebody smart, like OriginalGriff, and then they're back again, with another "how do I do this."
In other words, these are the same type of posts/questions you will find on Q&A for C#.
Let me raise a hypothetical question: should someone at a certain rep level be able to move a question from the C# forum to Q&A ?
Which may be just a variation on asking what the C# forum is really meant for.
thanks, Bill

I just noticed the membership count drop 461 in the space of a page reload and no it wasn't caching this time. I wonder is there an account purge underway or is the universe just leaking again?
...
And now 15 minutes later they are back. Maybe it was some sort of caching artifact after all although a rather persistent one or perhaps someone just plugged the leak.

My post, at The Culture of VB versus the Culture of C#[^], got downvoted ... I wonder who could possibly downvote this???
I think that just as you are required to with articles, downvoting posts should require the down-voter to leave a comment saying why.
I think that if you don't want to rate something well you should have to put your name against it. I have no problem telling people why I vote against something and why; I believe that it also gives people a chance to improve things and get their vote changed.

I was under the impression that only editors, protectors, and administrators could edit other member's articles. So I was suprised that I was able to access another member's article and actually edit it. I did not click the submit button and actually modify the the article so I do not know what would have happened if I had.

It seems that, when my forum responses get beyond a certain length, the preview stops updating no matter where I make changes in the body of the text.
Here's a screenshot.[^]

My Sig looks fine when I edit it, but in the preview when posting and after posting the HTML tags are visible.

When you go to a tip, you will see "Update your article" (when hovered says "Update Article") and "About Article". The top-level item in the breadcrumb is also "Articles". Near the bottom, you will see a link that says "Article Top".
Pretty much every time "article" appears, it should be replaced with "tip".
|
|
|
|
|
When I go to my articles and click the "Tips" tab, there is no metric listed for views for each tip. I noticed, however, that if I visit one of my tips, it shows the view count on the right of the page.
While I'm here, I may as well also mention that my tip, Call JavaScript in an ASP.NET User Control, hasn't appeared on the homepage yet (when I select the "Latest Tips" from the drop down). However, I suspect that is just due to some aggressive caching.

In Quick Answers, I usually scroll down to C# and click to limit the results to a language I know a little about. Last Wee I did so, and got the humorous result:
Sorry, no entries were found matching tags C#, C#
I posted about it in the Lounge, we all got a good laugh about it, and moved on. But this morning I get the same message, so it apparently is not the momentary glitch I thought it was.

At present if you navigate to;
http://www.codeproject.com/Members/daveauld/ - it obviously takes me to my membership profile
How about adding some more routes into the grand scheme of things such as;
http://www.codeproject.com/Members/daveauld/articles
/tips
/messages
/comments
/questions
/answers
/reputation
/etc.
At the moment, if I do http://www.codeproject.com/Members/daveauld/articles[^] it still takes me to my profile.
It will help making links look a bit better etc. etc.

fyi: Win 8/74 Chrome Browser Version 26.0.1410.64 m
I'm not absolutely sure that the behavior I describe here is the result of CP's page handling, rather than something to do with Chrome, but I assume is CP causing what's described here, not Chrome.
When you use CP's "Thread View," and you then open a thread, for example: a comment on an article (with or without responses to the comment, whether there is one comment, or many) ...
CP (or Chrome ?) does a full-page refresh which then "jumps you" back to the top of the page, which means you need to navigate down to the bottom again to see the now opened comment.
If you then click on "View All Threads" that will do another full-page refresh, and you're back at the top of the page.
It's not exactly a "killer burden" for me to hit the End key on my keyboard to get back down to the bottom of the page, but, imho, the full-page refresh is not optimal either. And often, when there are many comments on a thread, or article, then I have to scroll back up from page-bottom to re-locate the point at which I was last looking at a comment.
If what I speak here is really an inherent Chrome specific browser-related property, then I apologize to all for wasting your time
thanks, Bill

This week I noted that certainly, even if I got new votes of 5 my articles average rating decreased, and I do not know why?
-For example my next article http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/545026/MVC-Basic-Site-Step-2-Exceptions-Management has 20 votes of 5 and 2 votes of 4 and the average is computed now 4.81, but it should be around 4.95, because( 5*20 +2*4)/22= 4.9545.
-For the latest article http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/576286/MVC-Basic-Site-Step-3-Dynamic-Layouts-and-Site-Adm the situation is even stranger, because I have 31 votes and all of them are noted with 5, and the result must be 5, but from this morning is 4.99.
Could you please solve this issue!

It's nice to see articles recognized for being well written and insightful. Having the best article of the month medal is really nice...
But how about put a small mention on all good articles that have competed for best article of the month but did not win. It doesn't need a medal, but a small gray label near the rating would please a lot of contributors and I think it is well deserved.

Hi CP admins,
A few months ago, I reported a bug, and because of that bug, I got 350 Participant points when I updated my settings. This bug is fixed already, but now I realize me: I've updated my settings 3 times before the bug was fixed, so I've 1050 Participant points too much!
Can someone remove these 1050 Participant points?

Okay, maybe it's not that serious, and I've probably posted this before, but I can't believe a place like Code Project has no Python section. It's pretty much my 'goto-language', very popular, and a google favorite. Remind me again why there is no Python section?
I queried another favorite site of mine about an "embedded code" or "Arduino, ATMega, etc." section and was told that there simply wasn't enough time or man hours to implement it, and that tags would be better suited for this, and I should just tag C projects with the proper "embedded" tag. Is it something like that going on here? I wouldn't know where to start with a "python"-tagged post. There's not even a "Scripting" section, though things like Javascript have a home in "Web Development".
I see python-tagged articles, and a few python quick answers in "General Programming" but that doesn't seem right.

Having just written my Azure challenge article, I noticed some issues with code downloads attached to the article. Here are some suggestions:
- Show files of unknown extensions. In the "browse code" tab, files with an unknown extension just don't display at all. Examples include cscfg, ccproj, settings, browser, asax, and csdef. It would be nice if you displayed files with unknown extensions as plain text (i.e., no syntax highlighting). You could still maintain an exclusion list of extensions you intentionally do not display (e.g., images, flash files, videos, sound files, other media).
- Collapse tree. When in "browse code", it can be confusing to browse through large projects. It would be nice if the hierarchy could be collapsed (like in Visual Studio). I'd either collapse everything by default, or show a button that collapses everything (like in Visual Studio 2012).
- Track external downloads. For my article, I had a large code sampe (17.6MB), so I had to link to it externally rather than upload it to Code Project. I'm pretty sure these external downloads are not tracked (which makes the download count shown next to the article potentially very inaccurate). Some ideas for tracking external downloads: JavaScript that detects when the link is clicked, or pass through an intermediate redirect page before reaching the download, or allow a Code Project server to act as a proxy through which the externally hosted file is downloaded.

Putting 'Part 1 of...' makes article titles too long, plus authors have to know in advanced how many part articles are going to be.
I suggest that 'CP' allows authors to connect a set of related articles to each other and also provides readers a navigation mechanism, like a simple box of links to all parts beside such articles.
Thanks.

who can check it?

Looking at the source of one of my articles, I noticed a double "complete=true" attributes:
<img width="594" height="324" alt="New Empty Web Application (ParchmentPurveyor)" src="/KB/aspnet/Manage_JS_In_AspNet/new_web_app_small.png" complete="true" complete="true" />
Not sure what that attribute is in the first place, but it's also strange that there are two of them.
I doubt I would have added that to the original... perhaps inserted by the RTE or by some server-side logic.
