Can anyone in the CP office login to CP from IE10/Win8? Or are all of you still on old-school OSes like Windows 7?

Ok, that was so long ago I don't even remember if that was a Windows OS or if it was something to do with Macs or Linux.

Just encountered this myself on my shiny new install. I solved it by clicking on the run in compatibility mode widget.
Just in case a hamster is reading this I would mention that the experience is not by any means perfect though. Entirely trivial, and they are probably aware of it anyway (if it isn't my fault, which it usually is  ), but the emoticon list runs horizontally across the screen in a single row, rather than in a two column style down the side of the text-entry box.

Odd, I tried that myself and it did not work. Maybe I'll try it again. Thanks Henry.

Guess what? Tried again today in IE 10 with compatibility mode turned on and I can login. Once you are logged in you can turn it off, it doesn't seem to mind.

That is strange.

Well Chris still lives in his old fashioned Windows 7 / IE 9 world - so I am glad for compatibility mode.

I have the same problem... and I try to change my password and it didn't work. My ccokies are also enable according to the test page. I haven't yet tried the compatibility mode.

If you navigate to codeproject.com, you get redirected to http//www.codeproject.com (notice the missing colon after http).

You may have previously type this in your address bar and the browser is matching on this and loading it.
In IE: Open your registry and check your typed URL list; HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs
In both browsers I think you can start typing the http// bit and when you see the rest pop up, down arrow till it highlights and select the delete key.
Worth a check.

Nope, happens for me too in Chrome, FF, and IE8 (and apparently for others in IE9). Though, IE8 seems to handle it a little differently (performs a Google search for the invalid URL).

Doesn't for me, see my response below to my test.

Nope, happens in IE, Chrome, FF. Try it now yourself, type codeproject.com in your address bar. (Don't type www prefix.) You'll see it.

In Chrome if i type codeproject.com, it take me to CodeProject. In IE if i type codeproject.com, it takes me to google search with a list of results for codeproject, with This site site listed at the top of the results
|

FYI, Chrome hides part of the URL from you, so you are actually getting directed to:
http://http//www.codeproject.com
Very strange. I think this is probably a funky IIS setting on CodeProject's side (pretty sure it is an IIS setting that allows you to have site.com and www.site.com point to the same place).

Chris,
I have noticed that the filtering process used to prevent the links from displaying in the biography, does not prevent those links from functioning when the offending author creates an article.
The account that I just reported in the Spam Watch forum, had created an article which shows the functioning links, but the same links are just text in the member profile biography section.
Edit:
Here is the link to the article, and you can see the links still present in the biography section.
Black Friday Deals[^]
Also, the account is trashed but the article is still in moderation, thought the two should be linked, one going takes out the other.

I was thinking about this before relating to the spam accounts handling on the site, and the effort that goes to the copy/pasting etc. into the new spam watch forum, but can equally apply to form messages, questions, answers etc, but the latest event got me thinking about it again.
Can we not have a suitable moderator panel similar to Articles/Tips etc?
Any reported object appears in this panel, and those with sufficiently high rep e.g. 2 out of 4 Gold/Platinum(whatever you decide) Authority on Author/Authority/Debator/Organiser have visibility. This panel only needs to show maybe top 5 current items, and has a link to a page with full table listing for performing the moderation.
On this table those with the suitable rep, can Agree or Reject, and if the net effect of Agrees/Rejects hits the trigger (5 or whatever) then the object is processed in the normal way, if it hits -5 then the item is removed from the report list as being classed as safe. In terms of Agree this would be equivalent of clicking a report item yourself and you would also be awarded the same rep points (5 organiser), a Reject would be equivalent of voting down, and would get 0 organiser, if the item is removed from the reported list then any 5's awarded are undone.
The table would have;
Object Type (Member/Message/Question/Answer etc.),Report Reason (Abuse/Spam etc), Link to Item/Object, # of Reports (the running tally), Agree Action Flag, Reject Action Flag
This would save a lot of effort particularly around spam removal and messages, but can also prevent the accidental flags/or invalid flags of member profiles.
Just a thought......

You'd have to ensure you couldn't remove yourself from the list...

Removing Jimmy Ropes for a brain fart is just ridiculous if you ask me. He's been around for many years and as far as I know he's not a troll
|
|
|
|

Seconded.
Don't know what Jimmy said, but it does seem harsh that someone who has been active for so long can be banned so easily.

I'd call his response a slight case of overbombing.

He broke the rules of the Lounge, but really, his punishment was excessive, and his account should be reinstated. Let's hope Chris agrees.
