Yeah, that would be a good one too.

Lines a la Tree Ctrl would be very useful in discussion forums to make it easier to follow deep or long discussions and see who replied to who.

thought about this a lot but the extra bandwidth due to the zillions of img tags I'd have to place in the HTML would be a killer.

Is it actually possible to bookmark a specific forum post/thread? When I bookmark posts/threads, it appears to work.. until the thread gets old and it moves onto page 2 or 3. The bookmark just loads up page 1. And then I cannot find my thread anymore.
Other forum websites I can bookmark threads/posts no problem and go back to them even when they are a couple of months old. But it appears we cannot properly bookmark threads in CodeProject....

Just to the right of the 'Reply' link is the 'bookmark' link on each post.

Oh, well, that looks okay.
But it only bookmarks within CodeProject profile.
I was thinking about bookmarking into my Firefox, IE, Google Bookmarks. The reason why is because I usually bookmark a collection of related posts... but from DIFFERENT forum websites.... hence the need for Firefox, IE, Google bookmarks...
The reason why we cannot bookmark (using IE/FF) a specific CodeProject posting is because the current URL only points to the main forum board... not the post... it does reference the post to expand... but the post could be on page 2, 3, or 100... and the URL only loads up page 1.
Is there any way to open a post/thread by itself,, in the main window? like how other forums do it?

The 'Permalink' will bring you directly to the message, and you can book that, and also check out the View Thread option.
Is there an example in another board you really like you can show me?

Thanks, now I think I know how to get to my ancient posts that I bookmarked using IE/FF...

I just wondering when it will go public for all members?

Due to load we probably won't be opening this up for a while

Excellent feature though!!! I can't wait to see what it will be when it is finished and out of the beta.
Great job Chris (and the rest of CP staff )!!!

Perhaps it should be just for the use of the author?

It may be primarily useful for the author, but it can be considered another statistic similar to how many times an article has been bookmarked. The statistic can show another level of popularity/rating/etc.

I don't think views-per-day adds anything useful for anyone but the author - it certainly doesn't show "popularity" or have an indication of the rating the article has.

I've been updating an unpublished article (the checkbox that says not to publish the article is checked), and my updates suddenly stopped being added to the site this afternoon before I could finish it. What's going on?
The article is KB\WPF\CustomFrames.
Thanks.
