I guess the feature you describe requires some minimum reputation (which is silly)? I don't see a red flag anywhere. Is it my browser? Care to share a screenshot?

It's a minimum reputation thing, but it's not silly. If it wasn't there, then anyone could just create five or six sock puppets and ban anyone they disagreed with. And we do have members who would do that on an hourly basis...

No hard feelings if that is not an available feature for me yet.

If you click on your username in the top right, and look at the "privileges" tab, you'll see it needs only silver in one of several categories - and it doesn't take too long to get a silver!

I posted an answer a couple of times, but it didn't seem to "take" until the third version: Backup and Restore application of table in database using C#[^]
The previous two attempts were the same, except for the final line, and seemed to be accepted - no error, and the usual display - but the question still appeared with no solutions in the "unanswered" QA list and did not appear in the "My Answers" list of my profile, or in the "Latest Reputation History" list accessed from the current rep points shortcut. There wasn't time for anyone to "get in" and delete the solutions - and they would have shown as deleted anyway.
Odd. Not seen this before.

(Maybe I clicked somewhere I should not have)
When opening the "Quick Answer" menu, there used to be an entry for "c++ Questions" but now it is not there; it has been replaced with "JavaScript Questions"
Is there a way to have back the C++ entry ?
Thanks.

In Q/A section right side, you could find "Your filters" widget. Update it.
Or
you could do the same thing in Settings page[^]

This was reported last week[^]. Nish is guessing the menu shows the 5 most popular tags - the hamsters remain silent on this matter.

Okay!

Those menu items are based on the most popular tags. C++ has dropped off the popular list.

|
|
|

Ok,
Is there a way (manually) to filter for C++ quick answers/questions?

You mean something like the "Your Filters" box at the top right of Quick Answers?

1. Click on reputation next to user name.
2. Click on "Last" link at the bottom of table.
3. Blank page is shown.

I have seen that reported here before, so they know about it, but I think it is low on the priority list. The system will only show the last 250 events, so it ends on page 13.

Clickety[^]
I'm not a protector so that's why I can't perform those actions(Modify, Delete message & Delete thread). It's better to hide those icons for non-protectors(instead of navigating to another page & showing message like below when trying to perform those actions).
Quote: Items that need attention:
You do not have permission to perform this action
EDIT
Added [Ignore] in message title.
I did notice my shield later so please ignore this
EDIT2
Replaced [Ignore] with [Don't Ignore] in message title.
I tried to modify this message[^]. Wanted to format the code using code-block but got the above message. Isn't possible to do that like Q/A section question edit?

We need a Bayesian filter on all new posts. It can get it's data from everything we've tagged as spam and prevent someone from going ape sh*t on the forums like this guy.
