100 entries does not cover a busy Monday. Could this be increased to say 250, maybe 5 pages of 50 each?
TIA

I just read this article here How to Build Powerful Search Forms[^] and when I just thought it might get to be interesting there was a link to some commercially endorsed product. The article is of no value (to me at least) except using it as an advertisment.
Can somebody please have a look. Maybe I've overlooked something (which is not that unusual to me either).

I quickly scanned it and it is my understanding it relies on an open-source package available to everyone, which would be fine by me.
I do have reservations about one of the messages[^] there though.

I went to their site[^], and only the limited version is free.

Hi Manfred,
Just to clarify, our article is based on an open-source Xomega Framework that is hosted on http://xomfwk.codeplex.com[^]. It explains how to address the problems it describes by just using the framework. You don't have to use either the free limited or the full commercial software that is posted on our website.
From your comment, it looks like you either overlooked the fact that it is based on an open-source framework or you didn't find anything interesting or of value in there other than in our modeling software, which would be unfortunate, since in addition to helping address the problems described in the article, the framework itself provides very powerful and innovative means for building multi-tier .Net applications.

@the codeproject team:
I wrote an article about an extension for the telerik library. The article was deleted yesterday.
What was the problem with the article? Is it not allowed to write articles on commercial products?

Correct.
The Code Project is specifically for sharing source code and ideas. If the average developer using the tools a developer in the given technology would be expected to own can't make use of the article without purchasing a third party library or tool then the article can't be accepted.
If we allowed articles on third party tools then third party tool vendors would write hundreds of articles on their product and ensure a steady stream of updates would ensure their product's article was on the homepage.
The Submission Guidelines[^] discusses this.

It just means that they haven't been removed yet, not that they somehow can do something that you can't. There are thousands of articles, and very few editors - Chris has to work with the resources he has available. But now that you've bought them to his attention, I'm sure they will be attended to quickly; Chris is like a cheetah.

Ok, no problem at all.
It was not meant to be offensive, I just searched for other articles like mine before publishing and could find the results of my last post.
So I was thinking that it would be ok to publish my article...
I will not publish any articles on third party libs at code project anymore... Sry for the work, and keep on developing and working on CP! Great work to (nearly) everyone here, especially the CP staff, mentors and editors ...

I didn't think it was offensive. In fact, you did Chris a big favour by letting him know what needs looking at - good job.

Thanks for pointing them out and also for understanding. We re-visit this issue fairly regularly and I'm going to have another chat with the team to see if we can work out a way to make this work for everyone.

Thx Chris....
If the article is not right for CP, where can I post such an article? Any ideas?
|

Why not approach Telerik? It seems that it should be ideal for them. Alternatively, you could always write it up as a blog posting.

Is a blog post about telerik ok?

Hi Chris,
Greetings to you. Just read the discussion and I think CodeProject should not remove all articles those are from 3rd Parties and require to purchase for work with them. There are many people working with those and a developer first searches in CodeProject before going anywhere because, CodeProject is a huge database of such helpful articles for day to day work.
I think, CP team / moderators of the articles section should read them and if they see any offensive contents, may delete. Otherwise, keeping those contents/articles in their database will help developers.
Chris, please think on this again and take a valid step before removing the articles.
Others, please share your thought here and support me in case you find this helpful.
I will personally say, CP team should not remove those articles if they are helping the developers or the communities.

Agree. Better option is may move those kind of articles in new category like 3rd party controls or Commercial controls
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, that will be good approach than removing. :Well said thatRaja.
