Article always stays unfinished Robert Hoffmann10-Dec-12 6:02 Robert Hoffmann 10-Dec-12 6:02  Just went through a nice cycle of publish, pending, article unfinished, publish, pending, article unfinished.. The "do not publish" checkbox was unchecked. At my last go i saw the save draft / delete draft button on the side and decided to give delete draft a try. Yep 5mins later the article was online So it seems like something fishy is going on with draft & publish ? Shouldn't the draft become the final version when you 1) Uncheck do not publish 2) Check accept terms 3) Click preview 4) Click publish or am i missing something ? Thanks, Robert Re: Article always stays unfinished Chris Maunder10-Dec-12 6:09 Chris Maunder 10-Dec-12 6:09  Sounds like a bug, probably a database issue caused by load. It should (and does, almost all the time) work as you expected. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Article Vote Count Incorrect AspDotNetDev6-Dec-12 14:17 AspDotNetDev 6-Dec-12 14:17  Note that I'm talking about votes, not reputation. See this screenshot of me hovering my mouse over the 5-vote bar on my article. It says I have two 5-votes, though I have 70 votes total. I'm pretty sure in actuality about 60+ of those are 5-votes. I'm guessing htis is related to your reputation sytem woes, but thought it significantly different enough to mention. Thou mewling ill-breeding pignut! Re: Article Vote Count Incorrect Chris Maunder6-Dec-12 14:48 Chris Maunder 6-Dec-12 14:48  Yes, this was an unfortunate bug we fixed a week or so ago. I think I know a way to recover the records of the missing votes but it's not 100% guaranteed. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: Article Vote Count Incorrect Reza Ahmadi9-Dec-12 22:43 Reza Ahmadi 9-Dec-12 22:43  Hi, For me, I think the total number of votes is accurate but when you count all votes(5,4,3,..) it is wrong!!! I mean, for instance, the total number is 15, and when I count votes it is 19! For total 15 is accurate I think but some extra votes are reported in the small chart beside the total number! Thanks I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become. Re: Article Vote Count Incorrect jgauffin10-Dec-12 19:30 jgauffin 10-Dec-12 19:30  I got the same problem. If I look at the voting graph all votes are there. It's just the summary that seems to be wrong. Maybe you just need to recalculate all summaries? Re: Article Vote Count Incorrect KjellKod.cc14-Dec-12 9:45 KjellKod.cc 14-Dec-12 9:45  It seems that both the voting graph and the summary can be touched by this bug. For me one article has the voting graph all wrong it says 2 votes on 4. 2 votes on 5 While the summary says 33 votes. (and they should be mostly on 4 and 5) On the other articles the summary seem wrong For example 23 votes on the summary but 67 votes if I hover the 5-vote column. So it seems both are jinxed. I can provide snapshots if you need them. Cheers Kjell Bring back member upvoting Slacker0076-Dec-12 0:14 Slacker007 6-Dec-12 0:14  I would like to see the ability to up-vote someone in the Lounge or other forums. I wouldn't put the down-vote option back in the general forums, serves no effective purpose really. Our members post some great stuff and I would like to let them and the community know without necessarily writing about it every time. I have seen this method of up-voting done on other sites and it seems to work well. If you were performing an experiment with the voting here, you can stop now. Thanks. Re: Bring back member upvoting Richard Deeming6-Dec-12 2:07 Richard Deeming 6-Dec-12 2:07  Oh, look - it's been three threads since someone last mentioned the voting/reputation points issues. Must be time to complain about it again!

Otherwise I have to download the whole project zip. Thanks New article is not searchable? An website admin should look into this! Lars [Large] Werner5-Dec-12 11:31 Lars [Large] Werner 5-Dec-12 11:31  Hi all, I've recently added a new article called: "Multi language on-screen keyboard using Windows keyboard dlls" with link: Multi language on-screen keyboard using Windows keyboard dlls[^] If you do a search, this articles is not found: http://www.codeproject.com/search.aspx?q=Multi+language+on-screen+keyboard+using+Windows+keyboard+dlls&doctypeid=1%3b2%3b3[^] I couldn't find it other places either, using only "on-screen" or "multi language" keywords. The indexing of this article seems broken or is it just me? Even if I only filter on my name it is not appearing in the list. I do find it in the category: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/winsdk/#Windows+General[^] Any suggestions? ===================== Lars [Large] Werner lars@werner.no http://lars.werner.no ===================== Re: New article is not searchable?

Little disappointing hits regarding this article, hopefully it will raise now. ===================== Lars [Large] Werner lars@werner.no http://lars.werner.no ===================== Point for answering question MT_5-Dec-12 0:47 MT_ 5-Dec-12 0:47  Hi, No reputation points are being added for answering a question. I have observed for few members the reputation increasing without their answer being upvoted/or accepted, so not sure if bug creating problem for all users or only for some users. Before any esteemed member tells me that the points are immaterial and why do I care for it, let me tell that I DO NOT care points while answering a question but I think all CP owes its members some clarification in this regard. Thanks, Milind Re: Point for answering question Richard MacCutchan5-Dec-12 3:00 Richard MacCutchan 5-Dec-12 3:00  How many more people are going to ask this question again and again? And how many more times does it need to be explained? ungrits teeth. One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

Re: Point for answering question Albert Holguin5-Dec-12 10:32 Albert Holguin 5-Dec-12 10:32  Don't mind Richard... he's grumpy on the occasion (as we all are I guess). Yeah, this hasn't been working correctly for a bit. Re: Point for answering question Richard MacCutchan5-Dec-12 12:20 Richard MacCutchan 5-Dec-12 12:20  What do you mean on the occasion? I'll have you know I'm always grumpy. I am getting bored with seeing all these questions about points, both here and in the lounge. That is really not what CodeProject is about. One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature. Re: Point for answering question Albert Holguin5-Dec-12 13:07 Albert Holguin 5-Dec-12 13:07  Correction... Always grumpy. ...yeah, a lot of people ask but you also don't have to answer...although at this point I'm sure Chris shares your feelings.

Re: Point for answering question Albert Holguin5-Dec-12 13:48 Albert Holguin 5-Dec-12 13:48  I was friendly, I wanted to answer Re: Point for answering question BillWoodruff5-Dec-12 23:03 BillWoodruff 5-Dec-12 23:03  Hi Milind_T, I understand your concern expressed here; I am sure many CP member share the same concern. But, I suggest you consider the "big picture" here: there is a technical problem, it involves some complex issues of server migration of vasts amount of data; Chris has clearly identified the nature of the problem in the pinned post at the top of this forum, and, he has reassured us all that all original data is intact. Why not assume, as I believe most of us do, that the entire CP staff is working night and day to solve the problems, and that Chris is probably in the midst of a "heroic" struggle, working with ferocious intensity, to (American slang) "take care of business." Think of all the good things CodeProject has given you: the information; answers to your technical questions; access to brilliant articles from master programmers; perhaps, even emotional support. Wit, laughter, and companionship, in the Lounge, on almost any level you can imagine. All for free ! Surely, this is a time for patience among us: we, the lucky nine-million plus ? regards, Bill ~ "access to everything ever written or recorded, know everything the user ever worked on and saved to his or her personal hard drive, and know a whole lot about the user's tastes, friends and predilections."
