Not all articles need code in them. I have a few without code, and it doesn't make them any less worthwhile. As long as the articles are comprehensive and easy to follow, I reckon you'll have a pretty captive audience, and I would love to see it.

Yes.
Please!!

I'm writing my very first article on this site, and having trouble with editing/writing properly, becouse every time I hit enter key it afects on first row of text (in this case the Introduction title).
I'm using opera browser, tried with IE with same results. Is there something I'm doing incorrectly?

Hi Piyush,
Do you have a link to your article? Please send me the HTML of the original article as well and I'd be happy to take care of it.
Generally speaking though, if you're going to hit the Enter key it is better to do so in the HTML side of the WYSIWYG button, as in the preview pane things can get funky (it's adding an <br /> to the underbelly, and pending what part you're editing, that might get funky).
Thanks,

Thank you for your reply and suggestion, I was not planning to edit in html mode, but seems that is the most correct way to do it.

Hi,
When I try to upload an image in order to insert it into my article, I do see the image in the 'Upload files' section, but the 'Current Files' section still shows the 'No files uploaded' text.
Do I do something wrong or the article editor just does not work with images at the moment?
Thanks,
Alexander

The editor's working fine with images, so it could be an issue related to the recent site update we just did. While the servers get back up to cruising altitude timeouts may occur.
Just a very dumb question: After hitting "Add file", did you click "upload files"?

Hi Chris,
Thank you! Indeed, I did not click the Upload button.
It works as expected now.

I have published an article. It was online but now when I click on the link on my profile page with my articles it is nothing there anymore? What could have happen?
The name of the Article is "Implementation Example of Ranked Search in Asp.NET"

Which link? For me your link to your author bio and the link to your article from your author bio seems to work OK, both while logged in and not.

I think the link only was broken when the article was in the moderation cue. I do not know if this is the intended function or not
|
|

We're looking into it and if after testing we find it is a moderation queue issue we'll fix it.
Sorry about that.

I click on the link for "HelpBuilder - Visual Studio user friendly documentation by jack.vseumel" and get the message
"This article has not yet been approved for publication by our membership. It should be available soon.
Please go to the .NET Framework Table of Contents to view the list of available articles in this section."
It appears this article was submitted on July 2nd of 2012. How long does it take to approve an article.

That article was not accepted for publication, and is not available.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

Thank you for your reply. The message WAS a little confusing.

I am astounded that "Window docker application By MR. AngelMendez | 17 Aug 2012 | Article"[^], has been approved, and published.
There is nothing original in it, and the title is mis-leading: he is not discussing anything to do with "docking," but simply discussing the well known api hack to launch another application inside a C# Windows Form.
imho, that's a very bad thing do in all but the most unusual scenarios: unless the author shows how the Windows Form in C# can inter-operate with the captured application, which would be a tour-de-force of API manipulation, I would guess, but is also of very limited use (the exception being, of course, the whole inter-operation structure is pre-defined, as it is with "Office Automation."
Further, the article first cites someone else's work as the source of where the author discovered the simple fact of how you change a Form's opacity:
"I got this information from Mahesh Chand he made a great article about this here is his link if you want to check it out. http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/uploadfile/mahesh/trackbar-in-C-Sharp/."
Then, immediately after that citation, disclaims it: "Actually, I don't remember where I got code My apologies, if you want to use another way then I would suggest looking at Mahesh Chand's article."
The trivial discussions of how you make a Windows Form TopMost, and what a Windows Form TrackBar are: are here elevated to undue importance complete with screenshots.
Unfortunately this is an example of a type of a large number of articles that are posted here that just recite the author's experience of their own personal discovery of something well-known, or are completely unnecessary tutorials, many of them by students who just want the "sublime feeling" of having something published on CP (or want something to put on their resume ?).
This article makes me wish that there were a "Report" button on articles, independent on "ratings" !
What happened here ? There's barely enough material for a Tip/Trick here, if the author would care to post only the already well known API hack for launching another app inside a Windows Form.
best, Bill

Hi,
A few Minutes back I have posted my article and I don't see any code or attachments in the Browse code section of my article. But I have attached a .zip file which contains the source code. Can you please tell me how to confirm if my article has attachments or not ?
