And how on Earth do you spot rep changes so quickly??

I have a SignalR and Socket.io implants in my brain that subscribes to everything that changes on the internet.

Do you just click on the link on the top-right of the page? To the left of the sign-out button?

yeh, I noticed the number take a step up and checked the rep list to see what triggered that and that's when I noticed.

I have the same question. In the past several months, not once has that page loaded for me. It's always blank. Beginning to wonder if it's just me.
The page URL is http://www.codeproject.com/script/Reputation/List.aspx?mid=[id], right? If so, it's always blank for me.

It has been very slow on occasion and same as you it hasn't worked some times just like you say. As if a timeout is occurring somewhere in the chain.
|
|
|
|
|
That's because your reputation is unquantifiable and there for can not be displayed
|

Odd, first two attempts just now worked. First time in months I've seen that page load for me. I guess it's just a load issue then. Not surprising with guys like OP refreshing the page every 5 minutes.

That's because I had gone to bed and wasn't clicking it every 2 seconds

He is the author of CP Reputation Watcher Chrome extension, you know? 
Your time will come, if you let it be right.

I would like to see the tree at left of the forums anchored to the top of the page rather than the bottom. If I'm looking at a question in the .NET forum and want to switch to one lower down, it often means having to scroll a long way down before the meniu item moves into view.
|
|
|
|
|
I'm assuming you have a very short window.
I've made the menu sticky specifically to reduce the scrolling that's needed, but I can see that on very short viewports there's an issue. Maybe I just disable the stickiness for short windows.

No, a normal size window on a laptop. It just seems a bit of a pain having to scroll down to get to the bottom entries, when the right hand side is already scrolled far enough. But if other people prefer the current system I'm happy to live with it.

Can you please send me a screenshot? (chris at...)

Can it be made into a setting?
When I'm on a tablet its actually a bit disturbing when things jump around and I don't really mind the scrolling very much on real computers.

Count me too on this matter, I just realized that on 16:9 screens it is quite a hassle being forced to scroll down all of the content side just to access the other forums.

In case anyone's missed "the Dieting[^]™", I've just discovered a huge amount of spam hidden in the personal forums of various spam-bots. (I suspect I've only scratched the surface, and there's a lot more to be found.)
Since these bots have never posted in any other forum on the site, only the search-engines will ever see it. As a result, some of it has survived for several years.
I think it might help to restrict the use of the personal forum to members who have:
- posted in at least one other "public" forum on the site, or in QA;
- earned a minimum reputation "score"; and
- been a member for more than a month;
It won't be foolproof, but it would probably have stopped most of the spam I've just found.

Hi Chris,
I would like to add Sandcastle documentation to my PDF File Writer C# Class Library (Version 1.9.1)[^] article. Obviously, I can package it with one of the download files. What I am really interested in is if the help directory can be hosted on Code Project such that programmers can view it in the same way as MS help files.
Thanks

You mean the formatted HTML produced by Sandcastle?
If there was demand for such a thing I'd certainly add it.
(I've always been amazed at how insanely painful it is to generate Sandcastle docs. Surely it should be, by now, a single button click)
cheers

I am preparing a new revision for my article PDF File Writer C# Class Library (Version 1.9.1)[^]. One of the enhancements is Sandcastle documentation. I have too many classes, methods and properties to describe in the article. The difficulty in producing these files is adding the XML documenting comments to the source code. I still need some cleaning to do. Producing the document once you have the comments is very easy (one click) as long as one loads the right software.
I am definitely interested in hosting it on Code Project such that clicking on a link in the article will display the help page. I am not ready yet to publish revision 1.10.0. However, I have the Sandcastle ready for testing. If you want to look at it, I will upload it to you. Uncompressed it is 10MB, compressed it is 2.3MB. The help folder contains 1000 files in 6 folders.
Please let me know how you want to proceed.

I'm not even sure how to proceed with 1000 files!
Is there an option in the software you use to generate relative links within the documents? If so then we can probably just upload the entire zip, crack it open and have the files sit inside the article's download directory.
If the Sandcastle docs were produced as a single-page application that would be brilliant - then we could simply frame it inside a tab on the article (but I know I'm probably dreaming here).
cheers
