if they want indented code, they should use PRE tags like everybody else, and get all the good things that come with it (non-prop font, vertical alignment, better readability, ...). By disabling HTML, they deny themselves the possibility to include hyperlinks, images, smileys, text effects, and more. Besides, you are offering the PRE blocks for free (which works OK since you moved the box to the right of the TextBox rather than over it). Most often you are in favor of a unified style, yet you actively support this deviation?
And finally, a document should not have states; states can be part of the entry tool (such as your WYSIWYG versus HTML for articles), not of the document itself.

Ah Luc. If only our users all did what they "should" do.

I disagree. If someone is more comfortable posting as Text, or as Markdown, or as HTML, then I should store what they entered, faithfully, so that when it comes time for them to edit, they are presented with what they entered, give or take any auto-corrections (such as closing HTML tags to create well-formed documents). Translating between these formats, both ways, is difficult.

Terrence should post the links with the little [^] so we can open them without leaving CP.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

The message is formatted automatically by our system, so I've made the change to the system to add the extra link.

The code formatter in pending articles seems to have lost the ability to colorize (sic) the relevant reserved words in the different languages, even when authors appear to have made the correct selection in their source.

Fixed the colourising issue - will deploy new code today.
I can't fix your spelling though. For that there is no hope.

I have edited the question. The formatter in the question was colon d, which displays as a smiley.

I have 1000+ reputation points but still I'm not able to add links in my Biography.
I think its a website bug

I logged into your account and add a link with no problems.

"You do not have permission to perform this action"
so I can't reply to a forum message any longer? good grief.
PS: Starting a thread still works, I expect lots of one-message threads. We tried StackOverflow, are we now going after Twitter?

this reply worked!?

Lounge, the ad (now "removed") above my "Test" post.

A case of a bad error message. The message had been marked as abuse in between you starting to post, and actually posting your reply. You can't reply to closed messages.

OK

Are you sure? When it failed to accept my message, I reloaded the page and the ad message was still there, not removed yet. It was only then that I hit the "Remove" widget, which resulted in a score of 1 (3 votes).

We cache messages, and unfortunately we still haven't had a chance to move to a central cache - we're still caching server by server.

I got this email yesterday :
Subj: CodeProject | Your latest changes have been approved
Hi John Simmons / outlaw programmer,
Congratulations!
The changes you have made to your alternative tip 'Could not find a part of the path while doing a File Copy'
(http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/142949/Could-not-find-a-part-of-the-path-while-doing-a-Fi) have been approved and your article is now
publicly available.
I think a recent change to CP hosed it up, and it looks like it is now an original tip instead of being the alternative tip that it actually is. Luk voted it as if it was its own tiup, and left a comment, but I can't find the comment anywhere on CP.

Looks like your alternative tip was never associated with the original tip correctly. I've fixed this, but the original tip has been deleted which means that all alternatives are also deleted.
Doing this made sense in the old system, but I'll make a change so that even if the original article is nuked, the alternatives live on.
