Re: System crash or what? You lost my article it seems.

That error link is not useful for the staff to check.

The correct link to the missing article is: https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/5370464/Article-5370464[^] published 22.Oct, updated 24.Oct.

I think it was moderated away, because all the counters I can see are "0". That would mean (at least I think so) it didn't go live, can't tell it for sure though.

Gunnar, did you recieve any email regarding that article? If voted out or any other "typical" events in moderation, you should have received a notification.

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?

Left article pane has changed?

Hi Gunner,

I'm afraid we have a bug we're looking into where, if an article gets closed due to member reports, the article can no longer be accessed. If you have a backup copy yourself, I'd be happy to look at the article and help get it published.

Thanks,

What is the status of my article?

I think this is better posted in: Bugs and Suggestions[^]

But try to give a bit more details please

Hello. When my article went for review I saw "Articles by Ihor Sabo (0 articles)" and
"Average article rating: 0.00
[Article:5369804]
10 Oct 2023 Updated: 11 Oct 2023 Rating: 0.00/5 Votes: 0 Popularity: 0.00

When I clicked on the "[Article:5369804]" link I saw "Ticket:
Error: An error occurred in this page. The error has been recorded and the site administrator informed.
Abort, Retry, Fail?_"

What should I do and what is the status of my article (https://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/MemberArticles.aspx?amid=16111944)?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Unfortunately, we have a known bug where this is the result if an article submission is marked to be closed by the membership. The article cannot be recovered. Apologies this is not fixed yet. If you'd like, you can submit a local copy of your article to sean@codeproject.com and I'll try to guide you to getting it published.

Thanks,

article images not showing up

raddevus22-Sep-23 9:55

I just posted the article: Inspirational Quotes (From Richard P. Feynman) For Software Developers to Consider[^]

It has 21 images. They aren't large. Total bytes for all 21 is less than 1Mb.
Anyways, only hte first image in the article displays.
The rest of the images won't show up.
For some reason the images have "duplicates" that show as missing (on the right side).
I've removed the duplicates and reuploaded the images and reset all the images to no avail.
Only the first image will show.

Can you help fix this?
Thanks

I was able to fix the article with a workaround solution so that all the images display now.
It was very odd because there were empty images showing up in the attached images which had the same name as the actual images.

I had to go thru the entire article and reselect each image and then insert each one individually, but now it works.

If you're able to reliably re-create this issue at any point, please let me know. This is the key to fixing this issue. I suspect it has to do primarily with articles that change publishing status (Composing, Available) in a certain way, but I've not been able to reproduce it 100% of the time.

Thanks,

FYI - I went directly from creating the article to posting it -- no change of status that I know of -- and the problem occurred when I first posted the article.
For whatever reason it duplicated all the images (except the first) but all the duplicates said they were invalid -- even though they were named the same as the images I had uploaded.

Hope this helps.

Nelek25-Sep-23 9:00

Sorry, but I think it is not fixed yet. I would say an image is missing.

And the format is not consistant (don't know if it's part of the issue, though)

Interesting. I wonder which image isn't showing up?
I've loaded the article numerous times and even from a completely different network and now I see all the images.
Thanks,

To be honest I didn't check now, but yesterday there was a comment of yours without an image explaining it.
Bad thing is... I don't remember what it was, only that was in the second half

Yeah, am having the same problem with my article now. All images show up in the editor, are referenced correctly, but the published article is with broken images. I did save it once as draft.
Already tried to reupload the images, same thing. In the list of images they appear as "missing" and also as existing.

As I was about to fix the images, I saw the article content. Would you be willing to make some changes to the post? CodeProject is more about code sharing rather than tool sharing. So we would ask you to make some changes to the article to discuss more how the tool works (showing and describing examples of that code) rather than telling us what it does or simply how to use it.

CodeProject articles have a certain layout to follow, so that users can learn the most from them. Each article attempts to answer the following questions: What problem does this solution solve? How does this help someone else? How does the code actually work? What is going on inside the code snippets?

Here is a submission from a first time author who did a terrific job, just to give you a basic overview of what a beginner article might looks like:
Avoiding InvokeRequired[^]

For tips on writing articles, please see this article:
A Guide To Writing Articles For Code Project[^]

Please let me know if you have further questions.

Sure can work on it. I did some explaining of certain issues in the Point Of Interest chapter, but I can of course add some more info to it. Not my first ride on codeproject, but this article is really more about the tool than the code behind it.

cheers

Dear CodeProject editors,

I've added a thumbnail image to this article: Reverse-engineering Linear PRNG with Exploratory Seeding[^] today but it is not visible on the site home page. The added image is present in the "Source Code & Images" when I reopen article in the editor but not in the "Article Thumbnail" section.

I've also noticed that the article information shown on the site home page also contains an outdated set of tags which has also been fixed today.

Thank you in advance for some assistance.

When going to My Articles it shows there as Article 5365607. But when I click on it I get a black box with the message

Quote:
Ticket:
Error: An error occurred in this page. The error has been recorded and the site administrator informed.

in it.
Can someopne help, please?
