I doubt it. If it isn't intuitive then we need to fix it.

I use Thread view to cut down on the amount of stuff I see.
But when someone posts a link to some particular message and I click that link, all I get is the page the message is on and I have no way of finding the message.
Therefore, if I'm going to click a link to a message I first have to set to Normal view.
Is there some way that clicking a link to a message while in Thread view can behave "properly"?

Why I cant use of search on the codeproject and result of my search is :
"Either the search timed out before it has completed, or no results were found. Please try changing your search criteria."

more intelligent? Sorry Chris, searching articles works fine, but I have not been able
to find a single message, whatever search I try, for several months now. I gave up long time ago.
Please start making it somewhat functional, before even considering more intelligent...

Give me an example of a message search that fails for you.

No problem, I copied a sentence "we have internet" from a very recent C# message[^], and tried:
1) all forums
2) a few forums including C#
3) only C# forum
and got the same "Either the search timed out before it has completed, or no results
were found. Please try changing your search criteria." in each case.
This is how I search:
- on a forum (say C#), type the sentence in the search box, select messages, hit go;
- this updates the URL to something with fid=0 (I would expect 1649) and shows a new
search page titled "Search Message Boards", where the same sentence is filled in already,
and all forums are checked
- now optionally uncheck most (or all but C#) forum
- optionally increase the TO datepicker (it is 05-MAY already overhere)
- click SEARCH button
- the URL does not change, the page reloads, and gives the "Either ..." message, but
no hits.

Hope this clarifies what is going on.

Breaking news:
the search on the Search Message Boards works if only one word is entered,
it fails when two or more words are entered with or without an AND in between.
However I typically don't search for a single word...

Well I dont know whether this forum s the one for my question, but still I didnt find any other forum for this question...
Where do I find my posts?
All the posts that I have made?? And the replies to the them??
Dont you guys think that there should be a link to that too so that people who come late(say 1 or 2 days) after posting their questions dont have to search through pages and pages of posts??
Also here in CP if someone answers a post it dosent bubble up..
So the actual question poster wouldn't even know that there is an updated answer to his question..

Click on your name (at the top right of this page) and you'll see a link in your profile that lists your latest messages

But dont you think that it should be renamed as "My Threads" or "My Posts" or something like that..?
How could new users find out??
Just a humble suggestion..

The following article doesn't seem to show up in any article searches. I eventually stumbled onto it through Google.
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cpp/dropdownproperties.aspx[^]
If I type "propertygrid dynamic enumeration" this article is the first hit in Google. If I type the same thing into the CodeProject article search this article is not found.
Is there a problem with article search? Is there a workaround?

I believe Chris has stopped some of the search functionality until the site has finished its renovation.

That looks like a bug. I'll add it to the list
[Workaround: use OR instead of AND between words]

I'm using IE7, today the lounge has gone catywampus, it's set to display 50 messages but it's chopped off for some reason only showing a couple of threads and there is html code appearing sporadically near the top of the messages section. I wish I could post a screenshot but I don't think we can, perhaps for this forum that might be useful?

Whoops! It's fixed now, I must have hit the page at the exact moment of some update or something. Nothing to see here..move along..

After I already sign in to CP, When I go to java or LAMP new sites, I have to re-login.
Fixing this will be nice.

The persistent cookie path seems to be the one which is preventing auto-login.
