Which Technology will you use if you are doing that now.

With the release of .NET 7 we'd be using that, and taking advantage of all the middleware conveniences and the massive optimisations in the runtime. We'd also be running solely on Linux: no Windows at all.
Front end? I'm not sure. Most likely what we have: server side generated, augmented with as little Javascript as possible

That is nothing to do with the CodeProject API. If you have a problem with something on the site not working then please report it at Bugs and Suggestions[^].

When using the GetMessages API, is there a way to tell if a message is pinned?
|
|
|
|
|
Pinning is purely a browser-side operation that isn't persisted anywhere.
Or do you mean whether a message is stuck to the top of the forum (We call these "sticky")?

Yes, I meant sticky. (The pin icon has a "Pinned" tooltip, so I thought that was the official term.)
As a workaround I found that I can do something like if (messages[i] timestamp < messages.Last() timestamp) { pinned } but I was wondering if there was an officially supported, less hacky way to do it.

At this point our only option would be to revise the API version and provide an added property. Simple for us but potentially a breaking change for those mapping strongly typed variables to our output.

I want to explore the CodeProject API, can someone please point me to a starting point for this?

I may be beating a dead horse here but I am experimenting a bit with the CodeProject API creating a C# wrapper for it to (perhaps some day) be used in a Xamarin app as I am keen in learning Cross-Platform development with Xamarin.
Anyhow I have things pretty much worked out but I am curious about the FormMessages API. Both calls in that API require a ID to be passed (forum ID or thread ID) but I am at a loss as to get those ID's... Is there a way that I can retrieve those ID's through the API (I.E. am I missing something blatantly obvious) or is that still missing from the API? If so then how would I get access to those ID's?
Regards,
Jan

A forum ID can be found from the URL of a forum. Here is the full list of forums.[^]. For example ".NET Framework" is 1650.
Each message has a "Permalink" whose URL contains an ID. The "thread ID" is the permalink ID of the top-level message, the thread.

I was afraid of that... Having to extract the forum ID's from links of the forum overview page kind of defeats the purpose of have an API. I know the API is "early beta" but it has been that way for so long that I expect it is not going to get updated any time soon.
Well... I will figure out if, and if so how I am going to deal with this.
Thanks for pointing me to the forum overview page.

Jan

Damn, that is an obvious omission. I'll try and find some time to add something to list the common forums. In the mean time, you can look at Discussion Boards[^] to get a list of these.
I won't be able to list ALL the forums as the comments at the end of each article is a forum as well.

Thanks. Good to hear that there is still activity on the API development as time permits. For now I decided to "mock" an API call to return a list of available forums (which will return a static ItemSummary list for now). When you get around to implementing something it should not be to difficult to replace that mock.
As for the forums at the end of an article a pointer to that should ultimately be returned through the GET V1/Articles call. That would probably mean an extra field in the ItemSummary but that way they are accesible as well.

Jan

Is the api down at the moment?
