When I select Articles -> Latest Articles from the homepage, Tips also appear in the list, they shouldn't.
|
|
|
|
|
There's a set of check boxes that allows you to customise what types of articles you see.

Yes but when I click Articles -> Latest Tips/Tricks, it checks the boxes automatically.
|
|
|
|
|
Then I should combine the two links to be "Latest Articles and Tips"
[Edit: Unless it's preferable to have separate links to the same page]

I noticed one of my answers has a vote of 1, yet it is not gray. I looked through a few pages on the C# forum and noticed that none of the answers seemed to be gray, even though some of them are red. Is this intentional or a bug?

Messages don't get greyed in the forums where the Good/Bad voting (as opposed to 1 to 5 rating) is used.

Assuming you mean messages with good/bad voting don't get grayed out, then everything is working as it should. Other messages in those forums that use the 1-5 scale seem to be grayable.

I clicked the new thread button but decided not to key/enter anything...so this is what I get for not posting my thoughts of madness. I should have posted my diarrhea infested thought for the day and saved my point spread.

You don't lose points for aborting. You will lose points (unfortunately) if you post a message in a thread that gets nuked, since all messages will be deleted.

That explains it. Thanks Chris. I did post a message in the Lounge in a thread that was FUBAR.

Assuming the front-page featured articles change more than once a day, would it be possible to include a link to see previous entries?
It would not have to go back more than a month or so.
Thanks,

It's a random selection and not stored. Are you thinking you'd like to view a feature article that you saw and missed, or just go through a list of articles that qualify for feature status to see the creme de la creme?

Both, actually.
How often is the feature article changed?
Graham
|
|
|
|
|
Every 5 mins

Hmm ... in that case, skip it.
The list of recent featured articles would quickly become unwieldy.

Even still, at 5 minutes per entry, you're still looking at ~300 entries per day.
Your call (you'll be doing all the real work . But it would be great to be able see at least a subset of recent featured articles.
Thanks for your attention,
Graham

Assuming you are up here in Toronto, that pile should have shrunk considerably over the last week or so
|
|
|
|

Yeah, I was wondering if someone would cotton on to me there
Whereabouts are you? And do you know which month the sun is meant to shine?

Toronto - Parklawn & Queensway.
The sun shone for a few hours earlier this month, used up our quota

I just tried to quote one in FF 3.6.16, and discovered that if I only selected the text inside the pre-block it didn't put the pre tags into the paste. I had to select before/after material as well and manually remove it.

You got me by surprise here. When you copy a code snippet into a source editor such as Visual Studio, you probably don't want the PRE tags at all. And that happens to be what I do most of the time, testing some code an enquirer has provided. So I'd rather not get its behavior changed.

Please use <PRE> tags for code snippets, they preserve indentation, improve readability, and make me actually look at the code.

Ummm what?
Why would I be using the CP Quote Selected Text button to load stuff onto my clipboard to paste into Visual Studio? In FF 3.6.16 it doesn't put anything on the clipboard at all. Even if it did, why would I want any of the other markup in VS when a simple copy/paste gets completely unformatted text to paste into the editor?
