In the message sent to confirm email messages (Subject: [CodeProject] Email Confirmation), under "WORRIED ABOUT PHISHING?" it says "Always cut and paste web addresses sent to you via email".
It is good to provide useful advice, and that advice is useful, but better advice is to suggest that email be read without HTML; that is, in plain-text format. This is easy to do using OE and I assume most email readers. Plain-text format can be an inconvenience but it can also be a big help in preventing phishing and spam and even malicious messages.

These 2 or 3 days, it's been quite often to encounter certain errors while navigating the forums (next page, previous page), posting new messages, replying messages, modifying messages, and deleting messages.

I get these quite a lot. They tend to occur when there are lots of users online.

I'm using del.icio.us and would like to get all the bookmarks I have in CodeProject into my tag list.
I was wondering if there was a way to export my CodeProject bookmarks to a standard bookmarks.html file. I was looking around and did not see a way. This would be a nice feature to add.

hi Chris,
did you change anything to the [delete] behavior ?
really, i find it much cool as i observed it, that is, the icon is still remaining, showing that a post was there (so the hierarchy of the posts in a thread is preserved), but the post is now unaccessible (no title, no way to open it - cause no link, no voting system)...
well done Chris !

When I go to the Article Requests and Ideas forum I get "Msgs 1 to 15 of 15 (Total: 2669) (Refresh)" There are only 15 posts eventhough the total says 2669. Do posts get removed after some period of time? Even if that's the case the oldest post is from less than a month ago.
Just brought it up in case Chris et al didn't know.

It depends on what you have the "Messages Since" dropdown setting set to (it's in the top right).

Funny I haven't noticed that in the few years I've been here. That's my one new thing for the day, so it's time to shutdown now.

There is little official moderation here, most of it is in the Lounge. The readers self-moderate with public humiliation of the transgressors.
Each article has a forum too, so there are far too many forums in total to have every one be moderated. Email webmaster-at-codeproject when you find content in forums that shouldn't be there.

The CodeGuru forums originally were moderated very little and now they are over-moderated; my point is that moderation can go too far.

Every time I type a URL into a message and click either the link or link[^] button to format it, the actual link has a '"' character appended to the end resulting in a malformed link which I have to manually correct before posting. For example,
www.codeproject.com
Am I the only person experiencing this problem or is it already known by the admins ?
FYI, I'm using Firefox 2.0a.

How about having a forum or Page for commonly asked questions?
It could probably be from a set of questions frequently asked, or it could be updated by users on howto do something, it would be like a miniature article but not with that much detail.

I would agree with you that most of them would do that.
But if we can atleast get 20-30% to check that page, or atleast redirect these people to go thru that page, it would be a start.
I find a lot of questions which turn out to be very silly and irritating for an advance programmer. Lots of question are left unanswered and they could find the answer in that page.

I was just browsing the suggestions, and noticed that there are frequent requests for "this or that" forum. Has The Code Project ever considered an area for User Defined Forums? (or some such hodgepodge) I'm sure there would be many ramifications with this, but it is a thought.

There go my people. I must find out where they are going so I can lead them.

User defined forum?
