Linking what? Smile | :)

I partially agree with you in that point and could be a "nice to do", but I don't see it necessary. In my opinion there are other things that are more important in the ToDo List of the site.

That said, you are not totally unblameable yourself Wink | ;)

.

1) It could help if you just go to your nick in the upper right corner and you choose "my articles" from the dropdown menu. Those links are 99.98% of the time correct.

2) Not noticing that the 404 is already within the URL you are checking and then pasting here in your complains is a bit D'Oh! | :doh:

and/or

from your side.

Maybe some Java | [Coffee]

before complaining next time? Laugh | :laugh:

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Well, choosing "my articles" from the dropdown menu was the very first thing I did.

If it showed the article, I would not even mention it. But clicking those links lead to the url with 404. The only thing that really helped was hard cache reset.... Which probably means 404 page is cached while article page is not, or something like that.

That is why I find the situation confusing...

But really, all is fine now. Thank you.

Be patient. I suspect the site is still recovering from yesterday's outage. It may also help if you clear your browser cache as you may just be getting the 404 page in the browser.

In FF 72.0.2 the text "PIN" is showing not the icon for "PIN"

Re: In FF 72.0.2 the text "PIN" is showing not the icon for "PIN"

Every titled item in all the forums is followed by this word.

The behavior that ensues:
1. click on the word PIN
2. Icon of PIN reappears, item is "pinned".
3. Click on the icon again, item is "unpinned", icon remains as obligate "pin".

I've never had much reverence for the idea of "pinning" a post mainly because pinning has never been implemented correctly anywhere that I've seen (when a post is pinned (typically "opened" and made to remain in the "opened" state)) ... if I navigate away from that page then return, the item that was remaining open is now neither open nor pinned.

1. Do you have uBlocker or other add-ins that mess around with a site's HTML?
2. Anything in particular stopping you from upgrading FireFox to v83?

Re: In FF 72.0.2 the text "PIN" is showing not the icon for "PIN"

1-Dec-20 13:08

I think I have found the problem ...

The "pin" icon (which turns out to be a low-viz rendition of the colored "pinned" icon and is perhaps transparent as well (arghh -> don't get me started with .png & tranparency)) is located on the server at:

"https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/images/pin.png"

BUT, the icon won't load when the .HTML itself is refering to this path:

"https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/pin.png"

Note the capitalization of the "Images" folder.

As the page loads, that icon "img" weighs in as img (22 x 11) not 13 x 13 image pin.png and with, of course, the Developer/Inpsector tootip text of "could not load the image" because the path can't be found. Copy and paste the capital "I" image folder into the URL space and return and one gets:

Error[^]

The redirect to a CP error page called:

"https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Common/Error.aspx"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So, is it me? Or is it the small "i" image of the HTML that needs to be upgraded?

Anybody else seeing this hoopoe?

... wow, a minute and thirty-three seconds later ... all better! Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

About that "... and PIN is back (12/05/20 @ 1434 PT) ... see my idea for fix above (below?)"

(that "error" ->
Ticket:

Error:
An error occurred in this page. The error has been recorded and the site administrator informed.
Abort, Retry, Fail?_
so, no actual Ticket just a prompt to DOS exit that is unactionable)

There is one thing that has changed in the past four days though. Instead of being redirected to the error page when one attempts to save the "PIN" (image/Image) one gets a direct link (same path as complained about above) and a chance to save the PIN.PNG as presumably a .png. But it's not a .png, it's an .html/.htm now.

Hope this info in some way helps and doesn't just make me out to be an arm-chair quarterback Wink | ;)

[EDIT]
In both IE and Edge, the webpages that contain posts (I'm running TIGHT/THREADVIEW/50 on FF) with that pinning feature display no low-viz pushpin image at all when first loaded. Just a space which gets hooked by any mouse-over done just to the right of the title.

Can you do me a favour and try this:

Hit https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/images/pin.png[^]

and https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/pin.png[^]

I assume the second one doesn't show.

Can you try clearing your cache and then trying again?

cheers

Re: In FF 72.0.2 the text "PIN" is showing not the icon for "PIN"

7-Dec-20 8:05

They're both low-viz (no color only outline of object).

When I logged in this morning, the word PIN was appearing. Then 20 minutes later the proper function was back. So perhaps you're right about the cache or ... I thought ... "maybe there are two servers and my first login occured before a second server synched in and took over the task of dishing out pages (one has image the other Image)".

But anyway, if it keeps coming back and is this silly intermittant stuff it's barely annoying so I'll just get jiggie with it. Whatevs.

Thanks Chris.

My article is still no longer displayed ?

Great, so you can hit both of them. The coloured version is

https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/images/pinned.png

or

https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/pinned.png

We have a theory that you may have hit a 404 (not found) page during a server outage a week or so ago, and our 404 page was sending 301 (permanent redirect) to our error page instead of 302 (temp redirect). So your browser is convinced the image isn't there.

The whole case-sensitivity thing is odd though. URLs on CodeProject shouldn't be case senstive.

I can see the article, and it also notes that there is a draft to view or edit.
However, there was a major outage earlier today, please be patient. The administrators are busy trying to fix things.

Thanks a lot, Richard, for the clarification. Smile | :)

I'll be patiently waiting for the administrators to fix the things. Smile | :)
