Post Count: Kent Sharkey? or Insider News? raddevus23-Jan-17 10:44 raddevus 23-Jan-17 10:44  Has anyone noticed that the post count on Insider News always shows +1 more than the number of actual messages? I see this on Insider News which is often posted by Kent Sharkey so I'm not sure if it's his account or if it's the Insider News forum that does something odd. This problem doesn't seem to occur in The Lounge but not sure. Example For example, he has three newly posted items and no one has replied but they all show up on the main page as having 2 posts. Not a big deal, just thought I'd let you know, since I've noticed this for a few weeks. I'm seeing this on various browsers. Re: Post Count: Kent Sharkey? or Insider News? BillWoodruff24-Jan-17 18:25 BillWoodruff 24-Jan-17 18:25  There are two Kent Sharkey's; one of them maintains radio silence. cheers, Bill «There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors.

For this and for the fact this question was answered (2 answers) I ask to reopen it... C# : scrapping from websites[^] Skipper: We'll fix it. Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

I haven't seen email in my spam folders from Codeproject, but I'll update my Whitelist just in case. Thanks... Bad code bites! Re: No email notifications on article comments...

Dracula28-Feb-17 20:01 Dracula 28-Feb-17 20:01  Hi Chris, I must apologize, but I was ill and only now signed back in. No email received, and unfortunately my email server only saves messages tagged as SPAM for 10 days. Would you be so kind as to: 1. Tell me what domain and/or email address is used to send notifications? Then I can try whitelisting it. 2. Resend the account confirmation email? Thanks!! Bad code bites! Re: No email notifications on article comments... Dracula2-Mar-17 17:27 Dracula 2-Mar-17 17:27  Strike that. I tried putting CODEPROJECT.COM into my whitelist, and just received notices about a new article being published. Things seem to be working again. Thanks... Bad code bites!

Article bookmarks are not working for me Scott Serl20-Jan-17 10:05 Scott Serl 20-Jan-17 10:05  I tried bookmarking Pete's new tip: Let's Get Implicit With Our Tests[^] The bookmark icon changes appropriately (gets an icon with a "+" on it), but when I go to my bookmarks, it does not appear. I am using: Google Chrome Version 55.0.2883.87 m Windows 7 Enterprise Service Pack 1 I have disabled Chrome extensions to verify that it still does not work. Re: Article bookmarks are not working for me Matthew Dennis20-Jan-17 15:03 Matthew Dennis 20-Jan-17 15:03  This is a Tip, so you need to select the Tips&Tricks tab at the top of the bookmarks page. "Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana." Re: Article bookmarks are not working for me Scott Serl20-Jan-17 16:09 Scott Serl 20-Jan-17 16:09  I don't see a Tips & Tricks tab...or any tabs. The only menus are the normal ones -> home | articles | quick answers | discussions | features | community | help How do I get to the bookmarks page you are talking about? I went to my profile, then clicked "My Bookmarks". I also tried clicking directly on the "My Bookmarks" link in the drop-down of my name. Re: Article bookmarks are not working for me Richard MacCutchan20-Jan-17 22:40 Richard MacCutchan 20-Jan-17 22:40  Go to your bookmarks page and look at the tabs below the text which states: Your other bookmarks: Re: Article bookmarks are not working for me OriginalGriff20-Jan-17 22:49 OriginalGriff 20-Jan-17 22:49  That's the page he means: here's mine when I first open it: Bookmarks1.jpg (211.2 KB) If I click on "Tip/Trick" the list changes: Bookmarks2.jpg (202.6 KB) which is what Sean is talking about. You should be able to see the bookmark there. Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay... Re: Article bookmarks are not working for me Scott Serl23-Jan-17 13:34 Scott Serl 23-Jan-17 13:34  My page does not look like that. When I click on "My Bookmarks" from the dropdown of my user name, it takes me directly to a page that says "Your Article Bookmarks on CodeProject" at about the same location on the page where the tabs are showing on your image. Underneath that, it says "There are no bookmarks for this item type." in a smaller font. Re: Article bookmarks are not working for me Chris Maunder16-Feb-17 3:56 Chris Maunder 16-Feb-17 3:56  Still the case? cheers Chris Maunder Not sure when CodeProject "Site Filter" works kdsdata20-Jan-17 9:06 kdsdata 20-Jan-17 9:06  At the home page a user can "Set the Site Filter". Great. To clarify, I am talking about the Tag filter. The problem is that when I search, I am presented with all items that contain my search string, but, my "Site Filter" setting does not appear to be respected. I get WAY too many replies. And once not on the home page I can't set the Tag filter to a different choice. Is there some other setting to activate my filter settings. Is there any help for this feature. I can't find even that. I realy like this website, but without the site filter, or at least with incorrect usage, the site is frustrating to use. -- modified 20-Jan-17 15:14pm. Re: Not sure when CodeProject "Site Filter" works OriginalGriff20-Jan-17 9:24 OriginalGriff 20-Jan-17 9:24  The filter you refer to affects only the Home Page: specifically it filters the Articles in the list immediately below it. You can do a filtered search by looking under the "Articles" menu, then "Search". On that page, you can select "Tags" from the "Match" drop down. Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay... Re: Not sure when CodeProject "Site Filter" works kdsdata20-Jan-17 15:19 kdsdata 20-Jan-17 15:19  Thanks for your reply. However, that functionality is not well thought out. When I am in articles and I search for say "downloader", I get over 3742 results, but most of them not for "android", regardless of my "Site Filter". If I then select "Tags" as Match I get zero. That tells me that the filter does not recognize "Android", but in fact is looking for the tag "downloader". If I then change the search to "android" I get 181 replies, but mostly other than "downloader. So there is the run-around. If I then change the search string to "downloader tag: android", I get 3767, now all for android and related to downloader. Perfect. So what's the point of the "site filter" or the "Match" function when I have to use a boolean to really get what I am looking for. Sorry, but this gets me back to my first line, "functionality not well thought out". I suggest am rethink on the purpose of those 2 functions and in particular what the inputs actually may consist of. Or get rid of the 2 functions and let the boolean do the work (it works really well, and the data is there. And it is good). Trivial spelling mistake. OriginalGriff20-Jan-17 8:47 OriginalGriff 20-Jan-17 8:47  In the "Write an Article" Tags dropdown, the right most column under Topics. I'm pretty sure it isn't spelled "Androiid" Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay... Re: Trivial spelling mistake. Chris Maunder27-Jan-17 6:46 Chris Maunder 27-Jan-17 6:46  Which dropdown? cheers Chris Maunder Re: Trivial spelling mistake. OriginalGriff27-Jan-17 8:02 OriginalGriff 27-Jan-17 8:02  Sorry - should have done a screenshot: Androiid.jpg (283.7 KB) Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay... Re: Trivial spelling mistake. Chris Maunder16-Feb-17 3:57 Chris Maunder 16-Feb-17 3:57  Ah - that's a user-created tag. I'll merge it with the correct one. cheers Chris Maunder
