When I visit an article that has subsequently been edit, I get presented with;
"You have a new draft version. Would you like to view or edit it?"
However, if the user is not the author of the article, would it not be better to change the wording to;
"There is a new draft version. Would you like to view or edit it?"

Sounds sensible. Consider it done.

Morning Chris,
I noticed your attempt to implement this, but it doesn't look like it quite went right. I went into an aticle this morning and it said "There is", but the rest of the sentence and the links were missing.
Cheers,

The fix was fixed.

Hi Mehdi,
I meant to drop you a message on your articels at the weekend, but got side tracked and just remember just now when I noticed your name. Anyway, on your articles they often start with a long list of download versions. This in my opinion detracts from the quality of the articles.
Can I suggest the promonent 1st download link is the current version with the icon etc., and then the older versions are simply put into a table of version numbers only, e.g.
Latest Release:
icon decription/link/version number/file size etc.
Previous Releases:
1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 etc.
2.0 2.1 2.2
It would just make the start of the article look better. Alternatively, put the links to the older versions with the version history at the bottom. As there probably be very few people need them now.
Cheers,
|

Thanks Dave!
That is a great idea, I have always had a nagging feeling about the long list at the top!
I will update the articles in the next iteration.

We've recently implemented filtering content in Newsletters based on the Newsletter Topics members select in the Newsletters tab of their settings. If your selected topics settings is to narrow and there is no content tagged with matching tags, you will not see any content.
To get the most information daily, I recommend removing all of your filters and you will see all the content.

I updated my article a few days ago, in order to use new binaries (version 8.0) to replace the old ones (version 7.5).
From the Article Submission Wizard, I can see the new binaries are ready. But once published, the old binaries remain for no reason.
Is this a bug of Code Project? The article I am referring to is
An introduction to #SNMP, an Open Source SNMP implementation[^]
#SNMP, http://sharpsnmplib.codeplex.com

You have to update the actual links in your article (there's a link at the top of the list of zip files that, if clicked, does this for you).
(I fixed it for you)

CP does tweet an article. Good 
However, if the author has a Twitter tag then it should be included in the Tweet.
Make it simple, as simple as possible, but not simpler.

@Name I meant
You are collecting this info anyway and displaying it on the article, so it should be part of the tweet.

True, but when you tweet about something you arne't necessarily tweeting at the author. You may simply be tweeting about the author's article to your friends.

You are saying "Article by John Smith" the Twitter community convention when you do that is "Article by @JohnSmith"
Make it simple, as simple as possible, but not simpler.

Ah, OK. I get it.
I'll add this to the TODO.

When copying a blog post, the copied post at CP still refers to the pictures of the original article. So, if the original blog is down or the url of the page and images have changed then the article will still appear on CP but without pictures.
The suggestion is to also copy the pictures.

I don't know why, but everytime I try to add a file to the article I get the error "Unexpected error during upload. One or more files may not have been uploaded".
In addition, the "Add File" button is still there, but clicking it and selecting the file again gives me a "The file has already been selected" error. There is no where to re-attempt to upload it. The only way to get to try to upload it again is to check the "Work in progress" box, check the contributors agreement, save the draft, and then open it back up again. (Repeat at the top of this message).
I've uploaded files before and had the same issue (eventually it worked), but for some reason this time it won't let me upload (they are jpg files, 27kb each, and 2 of them), tried about 3 times.
