I thought it was just me... some posts have disappeared out of the Spam and Abuse watch forum too ... some came back and others are not there now.
I definitely read the whole "Who is watching (me)?" thread in the lounge a little while ago, but now it's gawn.

Articles in moderation get some explanatory text for moderators to "guide us" into approval or rejection.
The bullet points need a light hand run over them:
Does this item match the definition of article clear?
Is purpose and goal of the article clear?
Could the article help someone in their day-to-day work?
... Perhaps
Does this item match the definition of an article clearly?
Is the purpose and goal of the article clear?
Could the article help someone in their day-to-day work? Would be better?
As I said: trivial, but if you are in the area...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

At least it doesn't seem to work for Insider News. Is anyone else having this problem?
|
|
|
|

Seems to work again, but titles of articles are still missing.

The RSS feed for the lounge is also broken.
Here's an excerpt, notice that the 5th instance of the word 'title' is in a closing tag - the tag wasn't opened, nor was any content for it present.

Oops!

Yep, now all I've got is a bunch of titleless items in my feed reader. (While I would love such a feature for the dumb headlines of some newspapers.)
|
|
|
|
|
I'm seeing the same thing for the Lounge RSS feed--no titles. Other feeds are ok.
|
|
|
|
|
And now?

Now it's much better. It was ignoring the title and posting using the text. Now it's back to normal. Thank You.

Agreed with Kent - it's working again. Thanks!

All good from this end. We did have issues Friday night / Saturday morning.

When going to this article:
Refreshing Mule Cache Using Oracle Database Change Notification - CodeProject[^]
It is reported as plagiarized so might be gone by the time you read this, but I'v seen it on other articles as well.
When I scroll down on that article the menu on the left gets shrunk to unreadable. "Article" becomes "Ar", "browse code" becomes "br" ...
This happens the moment the menu is supposed to scroll down, so the moment the "Article" word is at the top of the page.
Browser: Chrome 48.0.2564.109 m
Since resolution is probably a factor here: 1366 x 768
On a side note for future reference:
Do you prefer 2 separate posts with 1 bug report or 1 post with 2 reports?

Does not happen on my system; same resolution and Chrome version.

Very strange.
This is the html I get when it happens (for that menu div)
<div id="ctl00_Nav" class="container-article-tabs stuck" style="position: fixed; top: 10px; left: 9px;">
And this is the html before it happens:
<div id="ctl00_Nav" class="container-article-tabs" style="position: static; top: 235px; left: 9px;">
When I hover it the menu width does seem to be correct but the "Article Moderation: Should this article be published?" box is on top of it.
So it's not so much a shrinking problem but a z-order problem (I think)

Let me know next time you see it and I'll dig in.
As a complete aside:
Chrome 48. I really wish they'd learn what a "major" version is. Looking at the version history I see 45 -> 46 was
- Change in taskbar logo design
- A number of fixes and improvements.[r 109]
- Under the hood performance and stability tweaks.[r 110] (Android version)
Seriously?

I've just seen the problem in Firefox 44.0.2:
Raspberry<-->SPI<-->Microchip - CodeProject[^]
Screen-shot:
CodeProject-Article-Menu-Bug.png (23.4 KB)[^]
My browser window (document.body.offsetWidth ) is 1605px wide. If I close the bookmarks bar, the menu appears fully. If I shrink the window, the menu disappears fully.
Looks like it's the huge images in that article - they're 1366px wide:
<img src="/KB/Articles/1078315/2016-02-14_.png" width="1366px" height="768px">
That forces the central <td> to expand to 1396px. With article-wing-right taking up 170px, and 18px margin around the table, that only leaves 21px for article-wing-left .
When the menu position is static , the table gets pushed off the right-hand edge of the screen. But when the menu position is fixed , the containing <td> shrinks.
Adding table-layout:fixed; to the container-article-parts table would probably fix the problem.

That's what I was seeing as well only far better explained and with a solution as well.

For the problem see Richards post
As for the version numbers:
Thank "whatever sky-pixi you want", I'm not alone in getting annoyed by this whole "race for the highest version number" that seems to be going on.

While searching my own messages for a message I thought I posted, I noticed something odd.
When I go to this message:
Bugs and Suggestions - CodeProject[^]
This message:
Bugs and Suggestions - CodeProject[^]
Has wrong indenting (is that a word?)
Also the arrow up to go to the parent message and the line are somewhat wrong.
Not that important but figured I'd report it anyway

Looks like some messages were removed, leaving a gap.
We had a messy time yesterday with a Redis server going ballistic on us. I'm assuming a little data weirdness crept in during that time.

That's ok, figured it might be something like that, just mentioned it in cause it was a more serious underlying problem.

First you don't turn up to buy me a beer and now you're deleting my drunk fixing a computer post.
Got it fixed after further drinking and now I can't post the answer to those who tried to help me.

Where and which forum were you posting drunk?
Hang on: let me narrow that down. Where and which forum were you drunk-posting about fixing a computer and those messages subsequently disappeared. In the last week.
I'll take a look.
cheers
