I resubmitted the article using a different BaseName. The old partially published article still exists in my list of articles, but is not visible when I am logged out (a good thing). I don't know how to remove it, but it's no biggy.

|

It does not seem to work. I tried to post an article and abandoned in between. I see it in my profile but I don't see any delete button or link to delete the article.
The basename is "pending". It shows up in my article list but no one can access it.
Sorry to mess things up!

The forum list above, well, each forum appears to rearrange itself when going from, say, the VB.NET forum to the .NET Framework forum. This may be true in others forums as well.

Should be fixed

I posted a message[^] at 11:30 PM EST on 22 Dec '07 but when I look at the latest comments page[^], it shows that the message was posted at 14:30 23 Dec '07.

It's the time in the Australian time zone!

I assumed that was the case, but I'm pretty sure before the upgrade this was shown correctly. Either way, it's not really a big deal and most people probably wouldn't have noticed it. I did only because I have a utility that reads this data and submits points to Community Credit and it didn't find that one message correctly.

Hi Scott,
several people, myself included, have posted the wrong datetimes on messages. Mine are
off by some 18 15 hours, they always appear in the future!
[ADDED] how can one be off by 15 hours??[/ADDED]
I'm in Belgium, that's GMT+1 time zone, current local time is 18:48 (sunday 23-DEC).
I do hope it is only a display problem, if not wrong data is stored in the database,
and search will continue to miss some.

I am pretty sure it's a display problem, although I'm not 100% sure. The tool I was updating seems to be showing the messages with the correct time stamps.

Unless I am seriously mistaken, it appears that static data like article images, logo's etc are not being cached. Looking at the traffic in Fiddler and Netmon reveals that the entire content of the static files is being downloaded each time. Unless it is by design (for some reason), I think that might also be a cause of server load.

Hi All/Chris,
When Previewing an article using the Wizard, 'Preview' hijacks the current window, rather than opening a new window.

Hi Chris,
A suggestion to ponder. According to The Code Project Discussion Boards[^], the following breakout exists:
Visual C++ / MFC: 327,821
ATL / WTL / STL: 6,697
COM: 9,169
A possible realignment as follows may be prudent. It includes the addition of a C/C++ forum:
Visual C++ / MFC
ATL / WTL / COM
C / C++ / STL
Considering the number of posts to Visual C++ / MFC, you might want to break this into two separate forums.
I've also seen requests for LINQ and Regular Expressions. Perhaps you can devise a way to get them factored into the equation. I've questioned where to place a RegEx question in the past. There also seems to be at least two fairly proficient RegExers patroling.

One thing we'll be adding are child forums that will make this easier

If you're using IE, visited links will probably show up as purple, which doesn't exactly look great on an orange themed site (not to mention the fact that it's close enough to red to cause confusion in the lounge by the color-perception-challenged).
Of course, you can go into IE and change it to #00ff00 or something else tacky if you really want to have some fun with the site's appearance.
Overall, though, I suspect that this is a mistake and is something left out of your css stuff somewhere.

And you missed an opportunity to make observations about my poor observions? How very kind of you.
'Tis the season, no doubt.

There seems to be a rendering problem with messages that contain PRE tags. If the contents of the PRE tags extends beyond the right edge of the screen, all content that doesn't fit gets rendered, but off screen, with no opportunity to scroll to the right to see the remaining content.
An example of this can be found in the original post of the "God, I hate VB.[^]" thread.

I think it is a bad idea to show MFC/C++ and C# articles together under a category!
Before the updates the grouping was much more sperated and more easy to navigate to. Eg listbox/view articles are bunched together with combobox articles and so on...
Maybe the filtering on the top: All topics, MFC/C++, C#, VB.NET ect could decide which articles to show?
Thanks for a great site, to bad I haven't got time to write more articles.

Are you referring too: "Article lists (eg Latest, top articles, tables of contents etc) are currently not being filtered by attributes. We hope to have this turned on again soon"?
If so, does this also comply with the categorization under Desktop Development groups? Like the group "Progress Controls" only contain 2 entries and I'm pretty sure that you had more articles about progressbars.
On the other hand "Miscellaneous" has a lot of entries especially with C# + MFC/C++ articles combined together. Wouldn't the load on the server be reduced if you filtered it based on the selection at the top (Home, All topics, MFC/C++, C#, VB.NET ect), or is it quite opposite?

We've turned on the filters so please let me know how it is now for you.
We also have to go through each section and move a bunch of articles into better sections

That was quite better!  But still there are some loose ends that was better before. The clear border between MFC and .NET/C# stuff has been erased and it became (in my eyes) quite messy.
Take for example the section (without filtering): Miscellaneous[^]
If you check the first heading "C# Controls - Beginners". I will suspect that this only contain C# stuff and not C++/MFC, right? The top rated article "CPPToolTip v2.1" is pure C++/MFC and it has nothing to do with C#. The next one "Designing a Windows Control - Part 1" is just the same, examples are in C++/MFC. These articles should have their own C++ group of some kind.
If you use a filter on: C/C++ you'll find find the article "Your first C# control[^], Report Viewer workaround[^], Themed explorer controll[^] and many more article that has the C# + C++ as grouping. In reality very few articles actually got C# and C++ information together so a check on these two entries could clean a lot of grouping.
I also want to suggest a profile update to select what "kind of" programmer you are. Simple groups could be: "I'm a still a visual studio 6.0 programmer", "I'm a C# programmer", "I'm a ASP.NET programmer" and so on. That way you could filter, menus and so on could follow your profile. And you always find the articles that have relevance to you.
Keep up the good work!
