Hi,
I wrote a new article today Multi-Core Binary File Splitter[^], When I submited the article for the first time the checkBox "Mark this article as Updated" was checked.
Thereby, When the article was publicly submitted for the first time it was marked as Updated instead of New. I don't know If this is due to the checkBox "Mark this article as Updated". Although, if this checkBox is checked and the article is submitted for the first time It might be more appropriate to mark it as New instead of Updated.
You can see through the Revisons tab that this article has only one revision. I think that I submitted one of my articles some time ago with the checkBox checked and I didn't face this issue (the article was marked as New).
Kind regards,
|

This was a problem with how we handled dates and times. In once case we just stored the date, in another we stored the date and time, and since these were different, the system thought it was an updated version.
All fixed.

Came across this question in Q&A: Cannot find my submitted article on codeproject[^]
Replied based on what I found. AFAIK, article's author are able to see their article status in their 'My Articles' tab. Looks like it's missing for the above one.
Any issue or I am missing something?

I have the same problem with my article recently submitted using the Wizard tool.
I have confirmed that my article (http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ArticleVersion.aspx?waid=12302&aid=382389[^] )does not *show up in my article list when I log on.
It does not show up under Articles Submitted or My Articles.
I expected it to show up, but be in "Review" status or something.
Instead it seems to be stuck in the Composing state. I know I've posted a few times about this and I'm not upset. If this is the way article posting works it is fine. Just trying to get to the bottom of it. For a day or so I thought I had totally lost my article.
Thanks for any help.
* emphasis for visibility, not to denote that I'm upset.

I'll make sure authors are able to see their article status in their My Articles page.

I see both the articles in discussion here are published now but the published date is shown as 1 Jan 1900.
I know that OG mentioned about dates earlier but it was for an article that missed approval process because of it where as, here these articles are already published.
Bug?

Thanks. I can now see the article in my list of articles.
FYI, Sandeep is right, my original pub date still shows as 31 Dec 1899.
Thanks to all who helped me with this.

We're looking into the cause of the date issue now.

Hi Chris, I have posted an article(How does it work in C#? - Part 3 (C# Linq in detail)
) on 13th May 2012. In the article first post date is showing 13th May 2012 but update date is 1 Jan 1900. As a result, this article is not showing on the latest article section of the codeproject. Hope you could help me, plz. Thank you.

The following happens when trying to update my article in the online editor:
1. I am using an up-to-date version of Chrome
2. I open the Article I wish to edit (In this case my MineCraft Server Management program)
3. I place the text cursor in front of a bullet point (numbered bullet point)
4. I press and hold the Ctrl key then press the left arrow key
Result: Chrome shows its "Aww Snap" page - the entire page is broken by this one simple (unintentional) command (I had meant to press and hold ctrl + shift). Anyway, since this causes such a mjor break in the page I thought I'd submit a bug report so here it is.
Hope this gives enough info - it's not a very insightful result but a pretty major one...

I wish - I really wish - that I could claim responsibility for killing Chrome.
Unfortunately I think this is something that I will, again, have to cede to Google's coders.
(And I'm not just saying that because my Galaxy Tab is the most flaky tablet I've ever used in my life.  )
[Edit: what's really cool is that if you have a bunch of other tabs open every single one of them breaks too. I thought the whole thing with Chrome's tabs was that they were separate processes and hence Immune From Destruction. Or something.]

Take a look at the messages on my tip, Call a C# Method From JavaScript Hosted in a WebBrowser. Most of these were converted to messages from the older comment system. There seems to be a lack of hierarchy in most of them (e.g., replies are thread starters rather than reply messages). Also, the commenting system was in reverse order (newer messages were toward the bottom), and that made them more like conversations that could be read through chronologically in a natural manner. That sense of chronology is lost in the new format.
My suggestion to fix these issues is this. Put all of the messages that were converted from comments into a single thread. Perhaps give the thread starter message the title "Classic Comments" (or something like that) and a body explaining the old comment system and why some of the messages may appear jumbled. This would make people aware of why the messages have issues and it would put them in the previous order (newer lower).

We were going to do that but there were many comment threads that were on totally different topics and so deserved to be in separate threads. Remember that we only added hierarchy after many posts had already been posted.
In your specific case it looks like the comments were transferred over incorrectly. We'll get that sorted out. (sorted? Geddit?)

Sounds very sordid. I hope none of the messages get sworded. What field are you going to use to sort, id?
Sorry for that. That didn't make your brain sore, did it? I'd prefer to have soared it.

That's all sorta wrong.

This article[^] is an update to an existing one. However, following the link to the original shows it to have been published on 31 Dec 1899.

What a productive person the author is. I see that the update was published on 1st January 1900.

I think my suggestion above is more likely.

No, it was actually Time travelling aliens. But we've fixed the problem.

What an incredibly depressing outlook. I'm guessing what the context was, but I really like to think of programming as enjoyable, creative art (which can be very hard, but rewarding) work, and not merely "work" as in "a thing I do 9-5 that's hard and for which I get a paycheque to pay the bills".
Maybe it's just because it's Spring outside...
