I don't know if this happens for anyone else, but this behavior occurs on two different computers (Windows 8 64 bit/IE 11 and Windows 7 64 bit / IE 11).
When typing in the editor to create an article, tip, etc. I frequently see characters I type get dropped unless I type very slowly (and I am not a fast typist). In some cases, I type in a character, and the editor puts a space between each character I type.
My initial thought is that 1) I am doing something wrong, since I am new to the Code Project editor, or 2) I have something set wrong.
Anyone else have this problem? Any constructive advice would be appreciated.

I use the editors a fair bit and can't say I've seen that behaviour.
Have you tried using the new editor? (On the edit page there's a link at the top right that will take you to a page that uses our new editor)

Write a version which fixes these defects?
The reason for the votes at the end of the articles is to show what you think of the article, so I think that the comments go well enough with the votes there to encourage people to read the opinions.

Told you[^]
Create new screenshots, save as PNG[^] & include those in your article.

That was me.
The image with the "3" is stretched. I'd recommend redoing it.

Hi Sean,
i tried bookmarking and up voting my own article and i succeeded, i also got points for the same. However this should not happen. Even if it is allowed, it should happen just once. Because this seems to be kind of unfair. 
Thanks a ton,
Rahul

Sometimes the online editor is a bit ... difficult ...
I couldn't find any way to use MarkDown to easily create one ... was wondering if it's possible, or am I missing something?
Is there any markdown to codeproject converter out there ?
|
|

|

Not yet, but we've been discussing allowing it for some time.
The issue is there's no WYSIWYG editor (that I can find) for Markdown. Plenty of live previewers, but I'd prefer to have a WYSIWYG option for novices.
What issues are you seeing with the current editor?
cheers

Of the top of my head:
- For many things I need to stop typing and then click on the icons on the top.
- I usually end up going into the HTML view to actually fix/add/remove some tags. Not a biggie if you know HTML, but if you don't you'll be lost.
- Examples:
- formatting something from normal to header to code might end up with multiple rubbish empty tags.
- fine control of images, needs html view as well.
- Uploading images is broken is the system goes into sleep and comes back.
I find it much easier to work locally, and then just upload everything, which I hoped I could achieve with markdown and some of it's editors.
(out of curiosity, what's the problem with live previwes ws WYSIWYG?)

So it seems more a desire to avoid HTML, which I get. My experience in Markdown is that you spend a hell of a lot of time (at first) fighting to do things like spacing around blocks to activate a paragraph formatting directive or getting list numbering working. I love having my Notepad style notes convert nicely into HTML, but when I'm formatting for publishing (and not just for note taking) I always fall back to HTML. However, I'm not everyone.
My desire for WYSIWYG is that, ultimately, the debate shouldn't be Text vs Markdown vs HTML. It should be "Edit the article as you want it to look".

well, HTML is good and bad ... 
Didn't have that much experience with markdown, but i'm using MarkdownPad2 atm and the following seems to be formatted ok and it's easy to work with:
##some header##
1. hello **world**.
2. seems fine
3. *some italic*
Anyways, the bottom line seems to be: Either use the editor, or export to html, paste that in, and just edit it afterwards .

Not having markdown is what holds me writing more articles. Using current editor is fine but too much time consuming.

In case you're interested, I just published Authoring CodeProject Articles in Markdown.
I've created a markdown parser for Markdown Monster that produces HTML compatible with the article submission wizard.
Ultimately it would be great if there was an API for article submission. That way you could author and upload an article directly with a tool such as Markdown Monster.
Cheers,
Daniel

Hello,
My article status shows :"InReview". By when will it become live?
Thanks,
Rahul

Hello Sean,
Actually i have finished an article. I have submitted the article. I have left it to the editors to fix the formatting.
My doubt is that i have added the pics/images into the document itself. I then created a zip of that single document and have mailed it. Is that Ok? because nothing is according to format.
Actually i am just a beginner, this is my very first article. I wanted to ask that when the article is finished editing will i receive an email before it is published.
This is because i want to view it once before publishing it.
Thanks a ton,
Rahul
