Perfect.

Maybe a popup that says "N more approvals needed for publication."
|
|
|
|

Yes, that will be a good way to tell the moderator that X nos. of approval still needed for that. Else, new moderators (like me) will unnecessarily try to approve it from different browsers and then will come to bugs/suggestions forum.

I don't like the idea of a popup, but perhaps the text should be shown next to the approve button and updated when its clicked.
3x12=36
2x12=24
1x12=12
0x12=18

Whatever.... they will decide the proper way but that's a good suggestion. Also, this should be visible to the authors saying that "x of y approvals pending"... What do you say? BTW, I am not happy with the current approval system.

It seems the clever code forum has suffered an attack of message deletion. Of 5 threads, 4 look broken, missing even the first post.
I don't know if this is an issue or just some post deletion, but I think it deserves a look.

I think it's because of the date filter, which filters per message rather than per thread. The result does indeed look confusing.

Exactly. If I change the date to 1 year, all the missing posts appear again.
Thank you.
P.D. It does look weird.

Kudos on getting the email fixed for those of us who weren't getting the News and Articles.
So what was the issue?
Also, if someone adds a bookmark or gains points at a lower reputation position, and then loses the points later at a higher position (i.e., removes bookmark), does it remove based on a new weight or is it removing exactly what was added? Not sure why this occurred to me.

The email issue was just a matter of progressively hunting down all the little things that could have been causing a problem.
Some of the things we were doing wrong:
- sending unattended emails from noreply@codeproject.com from mail servers that were on the maillist.codeproject.com domain. Changed to noreply@maillist.codeproject.com.
- We were sending some forum notifications through our main mail server instead of using the forwarding servers, and then during the move to Peer1 hosting we had our main email server in the office temporarily. This was causing serious concerns for some mail senders when they pinged back to the originating server to see who it was
- We changed from using [CodeProject] to CodeProject | as the prefix for CodeProject subject lines. A tiny change but nonetheless one that helped a few overzealous spam filters.
- Provided a more comprehensive (and centralised) bounceback address
- Updated our SPF records
I think they were the main ones.

Please, please, can we have the Q&A "View Unanswered questions" list sorted by date again?
I know I asked before, and it's probably a pain, but the list is currently completely useless, and it gets hard to see questions that still need answers in the "New" questions list as they get bombed to page 6 or so very quickly!
Grovel, grovel, licky hamster boot. (On second thoughts, not the last bit).
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

I'm still looking into what's happening here. Hopefully later today I'll have it sorted out.

Generally it takes 1 hour as mentioned in the Blog feeding page. But I can see that, my last post was not feeded yet. It's almost 12 hours till now. So, How much time it takes to fetch a Blog post now? Here is my post feed: Kunal's Blog - CodeProject[^] Tags are also proper and hence it should fetch it.

Finally the blog post was feeded nearly after 15-16hrs, but unable to approve it. Also tried to approve some other articles but unable to do so.

It takes 5 votes to publish. You've only got 3 so far.
The delay is because the hamsters are asleep (or something to that effect).
Patience, grasshopper.

I guess, 5 is too big for some small/medium level articles and in future there will be a long queue of articles which will take a long time to approve. Do you know, why this decision was taken? I think, who has a good rep. point should approve by a single chance and the article approving should be there only for platinum authors.

Probably because a lot of articles with multiple issues were getting through with the previous system. So far I've only seen 6 or 7 in the queue, the good ones usually get through within a day or so.
Blog entries usually get stuck due to formatting issues, which are quickly sorted out either by the author or an editor. Of course the wait will be longer when a lot of regulars are away on holidays.

I am definitely sure that, the hamsters will change back the rule again when they see that no. of queued articles are too much than the people who are approving them. You will feel it within a month. I am quite sure. Let people post their articles and blog feeds, wait for a month and see...

Perhaps the 7th member is the group itself? Or perhaps we have a very stealthy Jedi hiding from us.
