Second thread from that forum, I updated the hyperlink in the original post.

I doubt it will help, there are plenty of 'developers' who still post questions that can easily be answered by a quick look at the documentation or an equally quick Google search. And, of course, how would it be enforced?

We'll always have those, as there are always people who try to take a shortcut. It won't help against those, and frankly, I'm expecting that group to grow in the next years.

It wouldn't, purely voluntary. If someone indicates that he is a student, I'll prolly answer a bit more in detail - it needn't be enforced, since it's not a title that you earn, merely an expression of one's level. Yes, a beginner could set his/her status to "pro"; that wouldn't change much, only the types of answers they'll receive - since a pro wouldn't need that much details.

Didn't miss it before, since the reputation gives me a nice indication; but the metric doesn't really say whether I should or shouldn't give a long and detailed answer.

A great idea, with a fundamental flaw in that those who fill out profiles accurately are more likely to take care with posting questions, while those who don't read instructions are often, inexplicably, "Senior Developers". If you know what I mean.

Ask about how to write a virus will get you kicked off before you can blink. There are plenty of places to learn, but not here.

Hi,

I've been trying to upload a new file containing an updated version of the source code for one of my articles. I tried at least 7 or 8 times in the last hour without success.
This happened to me before several times, the file is not that big - only 1MB.

Can I ask one of the editors to upload the file for me, if possible?
This is the article URL:
ASP.NET MVC: Creating localized DropDownLists for enums[^]

And this is the link to the source code file:
MvcLocalizationEnumHelpers.zip[^]

Thanks in advance,
Rui

I'm unable to download that zip file from Google docs. You may need to open up permissions.

Hi Chris,

Sorry about that - you should be able to download the file now.

Thanks,

I opened the editor, added the file, hit "upload file", then added the zips to the article content, and published. All good.

Small Query

Today i stumbled upon a site called RootAdmin.com

It looks like the clone of codeproject.com. infact the url staging.codeproject.com is also pointing to rootadmin site.

When I tried to log into the root admin it actually took my settings from CP and used them there.

I am rather confused now. could anyone put some light on why is CP having a clone with other name.

RootAdmin is a sister site to CP. It's for techies who can't code but know how to plug cables in.

Thanks for clearing that to me. I almost created an account there.

I think looking at http://staging.codeproject.com/[^] started this confusion in my head. as this page looks exactly same as the codeproject even with the same live data.

+5 for clearing my head. (confusion wise Smile | :)
