That takes me back to my settings page of the altered profile. Unless you're saying that it itself is an applicant?

It looks like you went to your settings page and changed your account from "Standard Member Account" to a group-type account. All this did was flip a bit on your account - nothing else was changed. You can log on, post messages - do whatever - with the account still. The only difference is that you can now allow others to join with your account, and you can set the level of authority on those who join.
If you wish to create a completely new group account, separate from your current account, then go to the Groups tab in your settings page and you'll see some text boxes that will allow you to do this right then and there.

I've done surgery on your accounts. Log out of this one and log in to your old account. I've set you as Admin of your new group account.
All should be good again.

Good morning Dr. Maunder, you've succeeded 
Here, have a beer on me ![Beer | [beer]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) When I do pass by Toronto next (potentially this summer) I'm getting the whole CP team something from the ME.
One question though, it seems that during my d'oh moments I created 2 groups correct?

Only 1 that I know of. Your old one was converted to and from a group account, and your new account was a standard account that has been converted to a group account.
So you have 2 accounts, 1 group, 1 normal.
Unless there are some more hiding out somewhere...
(and yes - we will definitely catch up in Summer!)

First of all this is a great features . But I have few suggestion on that , and believe you should think on it.
If you check my article Exploring Session in ASP.Net [^] , its showing Version 20 and the Publish date is 15th Jan 2009 . The reasons is that I have update this number of times during publish the article, because there are more than 40 images and I have faced lots difficulties during publish . But Date of Publish and Date of Update are Same.
So, It would be great if you make the version on each update after 7 day , The same logic that you are using during article update .
This is just my suggestion only, and I believe this would be great to create version when an article has mark as update (not before 7 days ).
Thanks in advance .

If we only showed some of the versions then that would defeat the purpose. The purpose I initially added it for was to handle the issue with collaborative editing, and with editing by our editors. If an article is broken then we want to be able to pinpoint what happemed, by whom, and then rollback to the previous best, not the best give or take 7 days.
We will add paging to the list, though.

Hmmmm. So if an article has only one author, what's the point of showing the version number? As it is right now, all of my articles show "Version: 1" in the header, which is confusing because I have been doing versioning all along, and so the article body says something like "Version 1.3 - 2008 January 19".
I think you should either 1) allow authors to specify starting version number; or 2) don't display version in header for single-author articles.

That would be a classic > 0 / > 1 bug.
I used to have the initial version set as 0, then thought 'that's dumb' so made it 1. But I forgot to update the code.
Fixed in next release (tomorrow or the next day or this coming weekend. Depending on how other items in the pipeline are coming)

Hi there,
Sounds strange I know. But after after years ( my sixth ) and severals version of .net I've got a lot of bookmarks. I decided to start over from scratch and would like to delete all of my bookmarks. Now this looks like a never ending story and pane in the arse to delete each and every bookmark by its Delete link.
Do I miss something or do I just miss a "Clear all" function?

Added to the TODO list. Thanks!

Chris sir, can you please provide some more emoticons on message forum.
It would be great if you add those thumbs up and thumbs down icon , that are already with in Voting control
|
|
|
|
|
I'd help you but adding more emoticons is a larger task than you would think. How about I meet you halfway: I'll add one of them. Which would you like? The thumbs up or the thumbs down?

Well in some cultures the thumbs up is an obscene gesture, so I'd say thumbs down is probably safer.

I think it would be very cool if I could type 10 miles and the cp forum software would automatically enter it as 10 miles (16.09 KM) or -10c and it would post as -10c (14f).
I know it seems frivolous but given the global nature of this site and the number of times people post about the weather or the miles per gallon of their car or the price of gas or any number of things I think it would be very cool.
Perhaps the core of it could be an engine that was created as part of a contest here for parsing text and reliably finding measurements and converting them.

For anyone interested in trying to implement this, don't forget that US/UK fluid measures aren't the same despite the names. The US gallon is the wine gallon, while the UK uses a slightly modified version of the ale gallon (tweaked to give water a density of 10lb/gal). Both gallons were in use at the time of US independence. I've never found anything on why the US settled on the wine gallon.

Only if you're aware of it in advance. Given the degree of mutual misunderstanding that comes up every time MPG numbers for US/UK cars are discussed it's not widely known here, and before CP I'd never even heard of it.

Well that's a bit of an obscure case I'm thinking more about temperatures and other basic units of measurement, but in any case it would certainly alleviate a little misunderstanding don't you think?
