Yet another case of code to make things better breaking things in unexpected ways.
We are on it.

When I try to print to a PDF using Firefox, I get the CP logo on page 1, the first page of the article on page 2, and a few links on page 3. That's it. This is after clicking the printer icon at the top of the article and using Firefox's print command.

It still fails in Firefox, in the same way as described in my previous post in this thread. But it did print successfully in Edge.

Seems that Chrome is having issues, when trying to login with Chrome, the textboxes for email and password don't show, everything seems fine with Edge, I'm using the latest version of Chrome

Do you have uBlock (or related) installed?

Yes I do, and pausing it enables the textboxes... thanks

Add CP to the uBlock Whitelist - I do - and your problems will go away. CP ads are pretty unobtrusive, and don't normally give me any problems. It's the socially responsible thing to do!

The same thing happens in Firefox. Why in the world would you screw up the login for an ad blocker (I assume that's what uBlock is).
I was only able to get around it by using a "social" login.
There is no possibility of help unless you are logged in. And if you can log in, you probably don't need help. No help link outside of being logged in is a flaw because there is no way to contact you otherwise.

This article[^] showed up in the moderation queue this morning, but it has been marked as deleted three days ago.

Not the first time...
I got answered by Matthew over here[^]

This was a problem of the blogs, but it seems it has spread to the articles as well.
In this moment, from 5 articles in moderation, 3 has no message board (4 articles by same guy = 2 with, 2 without)

Are they definitely articles, and not blogs or projects which are incorrectly showing as articles? Check the page meta-data for the "canonical" link.

If there were more versions I checked the "revisions" list. Other were just the first try, so yes, I think they were articles.

This is related to a bug that we have been trying to squash for some time now.
If you give me links to the articles, I can add the message boards.

Here is another example - article in moderation is asenum[^] which is an old version of Project asenum[^]

Sorry Matthew,
I was off for the last days. So I suppose the articles I was reporting got approved or rejected. If approved, they already get the message board, if rejected... it doesn't matter anymore

It appears that we have a slow stored procedure that requires some serious work. Please be patient while this bubbles up to the top to the heap.

Update: Your site configures GitHub's Webhooks capability to trigger on push events, and it doesn't provide a way to limit this to the master branch. I could change it so that you're notified of branch deletions instead (I delete a side branch after merging it into the master branch) or releases (not something that I currently use, but which might work for others). The appropriate trigger event depends on how a project is administered, but it shouldn't be difficult to get the project owner to tweak it. I'm assuming, however, that GitHub sends you all the information you need, regardless of the trigger event, which may not be the case.
I have noticed the following with my project (robust-services-core; I tried to create a link to it in this post, but it isn't getting picked up).
Whenever I push to GitHub, my project article gets updated on CodeProject. This happens even when pushing to a branch other than its master and when its README.md hasn't changed. However, the contents of its master.zip file on your site aren't updated with the latest changes. So this has the effect of
- wasting your time, because an editor has to approve an update which changed nothing;
- pushing the article to the top of your home page, which is unfair and misleading;
- sometimes giving me reputation points for posting an article that isn't new!
I've also tried to fix links in the article, but they keep reverting. I use Firefox, so maybe the links work in other browsers. But what I see is that
- the "Download latest Repository Archive" link uses some GitHub API thing that doesn't work;
- links to PDFs don't open them, although they can be downloaded;
- links to other things display a blank page (but not an error, so they must be valid);
- a few links actually go to an error page.
When I change these links to GitHub links that work, they get changed back to relative links on your site. I don't know whether you have software that does this automatically or if editors are doing it.
I would guess that you have very few GitHub projects mirrored on your site, because otherwise these issues would already have been escalated. As a beta user of this capability, my recommendations would be
- Only update the article when its master branch is updated.
- When its master branch is updated, replace the master.zip copy on your site.
- Replace the article's GitHub-relative links with full GitHub links unless you can make the CodeProject-relative links work.
- Don't give the article's owner reputation points for posting a new article.
If these things were done, it would be reasonable to push the article to the top of your home page again. I would also change other articles that I've written about this project so that they downloaded from the project's master.zip on your site.
