The problem with that is that everyone who wanted to use the article code would have to become a lawyer to understand exactly what they can and cannot do - and every author that wrote one, and every moderator that tried to approve it (we can't approve articles if the licence says "you can't use this unless you pay me" for example).
At least with a fixed set, everybody gets a good idea in advance of what they allow (within limits, I'm still not sure what CP allows and GPL3 doesn't for example!)

Thanks, Jeron, I think that's the right forum, and I'll change the link in my response to that post.

Sorry I can not answer here because I'm still recursing in the forum which is the forum for the forum...

When (if) you grow up, you may understand the gist of curating valuable content, so appropriate forums are enriched in a way that benefit people seeking certain types of content who would never find that content in forums like the Lounge.

I tend to agree. Maybe a 'Lessons Learned' or 'War Stories' forum, or perhaps something more generic, a 'Posterity' forum?

But please, not open for all. Just to be moved with a lot of votes of the people or by a reduced number of users with the privilege. If not... it will end up full of noise.

When I go to the concert home page, my article filter is set to .net, and the entire article section is blank. Btw, I’m using Firefox...

Which iOS version?

It used to work fine. This has been happening for a week or two.
BTW, I am the edge case your mother warned you about.

I’m posting this from Firefox on iOS 12.4 and everything’s fine so far, including the homepage.
I can’t produce your edge case problem.
I guess this is where I count my blessings?

Is the issue happening on other tabs on the homepage, or just .NET?
I'd also strongly recommend you update your iOS version. There's some nasties out there you want to protect yourself against.

I occasionaly use the ipad to cruise the web while watching tv. The forums are the only part that don't freak out. I can't see images in articles, the menus don't let me click on sub menu items, and of course, there's the problem I originally cited. It's not a big deal, but i thought you'd want to know.
I still haven't really decided whether or not I want to update the pad to the newest OS (CP is the only site that doesn't appear to work)...

Hello!
I am not able to download any provided zip file. At least the articles
Another Take on a WPF Wizard[^]
and
Extended (Inherited) Versions of List and Combo Box Controls[^]
are effected. Both download links will end up in a redirect to the article with the following message on top of the page:
You have been redirected to the home of the file you requested to ensure you get the latest version of the file as specified by the article author - see the screenshot
Tested with Windows 10 / Firefox and IE and Windows 7 / Firefox.
|
|
|
|

Are you going to the article and clicking the download link, or are you trying to use a download manager?
cheers
Chris Maunder
