Thanks. I think I got it published now. I appreciate the help.

The only problem now is that I think it messed up its status. Right now it looks like it never hit the new articles list. I'm not sure anything needs to be done about that, but I think there is a bug somewhere in the system that needs to be squashed so this doesn't happen to others. Let me know if I can give you any more information that would be of help.

Hi Tim,
No problem, I have pushed your article to live. It should be in good standing now. Please let us know if you encounter any other problems.
Thanks,

Is there no way to search for forum messages within a date range anymore?
I seem to recall that it didn't work as well as I'd like, but at least it would try.
(I'm trying to find a thread from September 2009).

No, but it's on our TODO list.

It might be just me but since yesterday the website is too slow. Earlier I though it might be yesterday's Q&A's issue but even after it was resolved, the speed has not improved much.
Page take time to load, postback, etc.
Issue?

It's running nice and fast as from where I'm sitting.
What's your ping time when you hit codeproject.com?

Ok. It's:
Minimum = 302ms, Maximum = 335ms, Average = 315ms

Oh man. You hav my sympathies.
Is the site still slow for you? Is it a particular page, forum, article, something?

Still the same. No particular page. I am at my work place currently. Will check at home now.

How was it from home?

[I was about to reply back!]
Better.
But, couple of times(for more than 10 seconds) my whole Firefox hung when I pasted something in the answer box(Q&A). I guess, it was trying to pick the wrapping for the paste - AJAX call I think. Not sure why that made whole Firefox (other tabs too) of no use. I found, I was unable to even copy URL/text from other tab. 
Any suggestions? I already restarted my FF v12 & laptop.
Further, I already have that issue of paste option NOT getting persisted that I informed last week. 
BTW, It looks like it was just me. So, now you can very well put the 'False alarm' icon beside the bug icon.

When I do a site update, like I did around 12PM, things like Paste hang for a few seconds (sometimes much longer), do to the site still spooling up, and due to, evidently, the timeout I set on the jQuery Ajax call not being honoured. Grr.
The preferences not being persisted has been reported a few times and I'm still trying to get some time to dig in. I cannot for the life of me replicate the issue my end

As I went updating new article a few times, I also updated the attachments, by first deleting them, and then uploading the new ones.
After about 3 such updates I can no longer upload any attachment. When I hit Upload button, it attempts to do something, but nothing happens, the upload does not appear on the list anymore.
As a result, I got my currently published article without any attachment, which is quite bad, as those are shared between drafts and released articles.

I've reinstated the uploads you deleted so that the currently viewable version of your article has downloads.
Can I ask a dumb question: Why delete them?
In the old wizard you could just upload new ones and it would overwrite the old ones. In the new system you upload new versions of downloads, and the old versions stay where they are so the currently viewable article has downloads still working, but wben the new version gets approved, the new downloads overwrite the old downloads so the new article is pointing to the correct files.
Basically: Just upload your new files. The system takes care to ensure the correct files are linked within the different versions of your article.

Thank you for restoring the downloads, Chris!
Dumb question goes alone well with the dumb action. Thank you for the clarification, I will keep in mind not to delete the old downloads.
Cheers!

I doubt it was a dumb action - it just makes me wonder what made you think of doing that, since it means (to me) that we're not making it clear enough, or worse, giving you misleading cues. I'd like to make it more intuitive.

In my decision to delete the downloads I was focused on the fact that they related to a freshly published article, which kind of didn't need to drag alone old downloads, so I didn't give it much thought before deleting previous attachments. My bad.
It is easier to keep the rules in memory for a regular writer, which I'm not.

P.S. On the previous subject, I tried to re-submit that article couple times, every time it would move itself from "Pending" to "Draft" without being released. That seems strange.

Let's look at this page:
Need help! Linking a Windows Form to a Game class.[^].
The posts "Solution 1", "Solution 2", "Solution 3": they are gray, but not indicated as "removed"; commenting them is not available and past comments are not shown, as if they were removed.
Could it be a bug (regression)?

I haven't see any solution.

The answers were deleted, and I've updated the code so that you simply won't see them now.

Hi Chris,
Thank you for answering and for the information. Perhaps it will be better decision compared to showing "deleted" status. After all, "deleted" must be "deleted", not looking like "disabled". I hope deleted comments will disappear from a page, right? The inability to remove them from view (in case of accidentally misplaced or wrong comments) clutters the page.
Thank you,
—SASergey A Kryukov
