We had a situation where people where updating their article everyday with spurious updates. Now, articles are only marked as being updated if more than a week has passed since the last update.

I think is useful to have a those two counters because:
1. If a message was not answered, the writer could get an idea as for why his question was not answered.
If many people had viewed the thread it's likely that the question is hard to answer.
2. The forum readers would get an idea as for how interesting/useful the thread is.

1) is why I have a "how to get your question answered" post at the top of most forums
2) is covered by the current message voting system

Well... I partially agree with both arguments.
But hmm... I know that I, for one, am not always thinking of voting, even if a post is really good... My mind is occupied by reading.
And as for the first argument, aren't you just anxious to know how many people have read your posts???

You'd end up with stroppy people going "3000 people have read this - why hasn't anyone replied!!!".
It's the same thing as read receipts on emails - very annoying.

And other "home" type pages, in the top of the left navigation bar.
var zxpixie = new Image(); var zzpx2 = ";x=1821;g=172,0;c=582000001,582000001;i=37;n=582;" + zzStr; var zxa, zxv, zxp, zxx, zxc; var zxpi...
No big deal for me, but maybe your advertisers are suffering.
Browser is FF 1.5.0.6.

The last newsletter in the archive is from March 2006. Is there another place to find the latest newsletters?
|
|
|
|
|
No, and I feel bad about it. I'll try and get it updated this week

If I click the 'My Articles' link, and then refresh the page (IE6), when the page reloads all of my articles are listed under the 'Active Directory' category. I've never written about 'Active Directory.'

It seems to be an intermittent bug. Occasionally I see the same and then a few hours later it is back to normal.
|
|
|
|
|
Seems good to me. Is it still happening for you?

No, not now. As Colin pointed out, this seems to be an intermittent bug (the worst of them all!). Once in a while when I load that page for the first time (not a refresh) it will come up with Active Directory for all articles. No biggie, just a quirk I notice now and again.

I just submitted an article via the submission wizard. I selected values for the various categories (such as the language, platform, etc.). I later modified the article, via the wizard, and those settings were set to the default values. Is that supposed to happen? And, no matter how hard I try, I cannot get "Win32" to drop off the list of technologies at the top of my article. Here's the article url, in case that helps: http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/PipingValueConverters_WPF.asp[^]. I use IE6 for a browser.
|

|

Yes - this is a known bug. Not 100% sure what's going on here. (except the win32 - that's a default attribute that should probably, well, not be default)

It would be better if codeproject remembered the last visited page instead of redirecting you to the homepage every time you login...
|
|
|
|
|
I agree. In fact, the frustrations associated with logging in are one of the big things that keep me from ever logging out.
Wait...

Where's an innocent whistling icon when you need it...
Seriously, though, it bites. I know it does. Part of the reason it's broken is because of query string parameter confusion from legacy issues in merging some modules within the site. I will have another go at untangling those wires.

I am wondering if anyone has considered adding a search on members for country, interests, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
I noticed that there are no adds showing up anymore
you might want that one fixed...

Are you blocking certain sites? Our ads are now being served from a professional 3rd party ad server (saves us continuing to develop ours in-house, plus saves us a ton on bandwidth costs). That may be causing some weirdness.
Want us to switch it back? :P

I guess our office proxy is blocking the ad server that is why i dont see any ads on my pages either.

True. I am experiencing the same issue as well.
The page just loads with white blocks all over the places where ads are hosted.

I don't know if this has been suggested before but this would be invaluable.
I used some code from a CP article in a commercial application and it crashed after 6 months of use (don't you love it when that happens ) then i found the problem and went back to the article to report it and guess what it was already reported and fixed 3 months back.
So a Recieve article update notifications link on articles would be awesome
