This is not the Code Project account I want to unsubscribe or change in any way.

I had created another account for temporary access. Once done, I delete the account. However, I still keep getting emails to the email address for that temporary account. Clicking unsubscribe in the email generates an error message on the Code Project web page stating user details cannot be deleted.

How does one unsubscribe from Code Project emails if the Code Project account has already been deleted?

Use the email link to send me the email address that is the problem and I'll take care of it.

Images are not loading

For last few months I have a problem with viewing the site where images are not loading. The problem is intermittent and persists on both my go-to browser Firefox and Edge. No blockers are installed in both browsers.

Here are couple quick examples from both browsers:

Firefox

Edge

Here's what Edge's error console is showing:

There was an issue in Chromium that when a connection timed out while an item was in the process of being received, then the browser could report this error. I'm not sure of the status of the fix for this one.

What OS are you running?
What versions of the browsers are you using?
What is the speed of your internet connection?
Have you been having issues with your internet service?

Win 10
Latest of both: Firefox 87.0, Edge 90.0.818.42
No problems with internet.
Adequate speed 100Mb+

Haven't had such issues with other sites - just Codeproject

Do you have any ad blockers like ABPlus or uBlock? Any rules that prevent content from Fastly being requested?

cheers

Hi Chris,

Hmm. I do have couple of plugins installed in Firefox but no ad blockers. However this issue is happening in Private mode as well which does not load plugins. It also happens on Edge which has no plugins at all.

Actually, I just tried browsing from another Windows laptop and experienced no such issue on it. So this must be some problem with my primary machine. Strange. I don't know what it can be caused by and why only Codeproject. I haven't noticed issues with other sites.

Thanks for checking back.

Do you have anything blocking specific sites such as hosts file entries or firewall / router rules on that machine?

cheers

Nothing. And that's why it is strange

It seems that a user with rep 0 for messages show as Under Water in the profile page. Like following example

Articles       0
Tech Blogs     0
Messages       0 (Under Water)
Q&A Questions  1
Q&A Answers    0
Tips/Tricks    0
Reference      0
Projects       0
Comments       0

Shouldn't the limit be less that zero?

There were some users that went in a couple of hundred in negative points.
They were the "not so loved" posting guys.

I think it might be a useful thing to see from time to time.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

That's what I suspected Smile | :)

Can't remember who was the one I copy pasted in the initial question,but for example this profile Tshumore - Professional Profile
One message having a vote of 5, rep for messages 0 and under water... Can't see the reason why?

When checking the bio for a person before answering I quite often run into this kind of statistics, especially for newcomers.

Just to let you know, here's another example mrinalbh - Professional Profile

In Summary section all badges with zero are 'Under water' and on the right side in the vertical list, zero messages but still under water...

But as said, it's not a big deal

Vicap Academy - Professional Profile[^]

The user has entered an unbroken string of nearly 1500 asterisks in a single line. This pushes the right-hand sidebar off screen:

Setting word-break: break-word; or overflow-wrap: anywhere; on the parent element allows the line to wrap properly.

For the interim, I have removed the asterisks.

Direct email messages

Re: Direct email messages

15-Apr-21 23:02

I just got "direct message" spam from a member called "davidfw" so I have his email (mercierdias3@outlook.com for all you spambots), and could sign him up to some ... interesting ... sites, but I'd kinda like to report him here as well.
But I can't find a way to search by username if he hasn't posted anything, and the "who's who" is limited to the first 1000 pages (out of 741,747) ...

Could the direct message email include a link to the member homepage as well as the response email address to make it easier ?

Where are the ads?

OriginalGriff12-Apr-21 18:48

12-Apr-21 18:48

Chris, suddenly - as in this morning - all the ads are gone from CP:

I use uBlock, but CP is in the Whitelist:

Nothing has changed overnight that I am aware of ... and other un-whitelisted sites are still being blocked with the "adds disposed" count shown in the toolbar.

[edit]
Chrome Version 89.0.4389.114 (Official Build) (64-bit)
[/edit]

Any ideas? Anyone else got a similar problem?

Fixed: Kaspersky enabled anti-banner for no obvious reason ...

Working OK for me in Firefox:

Has Chrome updated recently?

Interesting.
No, Chrome is running the same version on Desktop and my Surface - but my Surface is showing the ads and my desktop isn't ...

Both use uBlock, both have Kaspersky IS, both on same internet connection / router / ISP.
Both running same version of Win10: 20H2 19042.867

Bingo! That was it: Kaspersky enabled Anti-banner on the desktop but not the Surface (don't know why. I haven't changed its settings for ages). Disabled for CP, ads restored.
