Check your date filter. 
Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots.

Every time I try to read a comment in an article I get re-directed to a page that says "Sorry, but the article you requested could not be located". Help! I'm using Firefox 3.0.8 on Vista Ultimate with SP1.

Sorry about this - it's a URL rewriting gotcha that I'll be fixing in about 30 mins.

30 mins became half a day - we found a more fundamental issue that we're fixing as we speak. Or type. y'know

If you hover your mouse over Bob it should throw up a tooltip with a quote of the day

What about a hall of shame? Pick out the worst posts of the day, and quote some parts of it in the tooltip

Oh didn't you notice, analogous to square roots, they recently introduced rectangular, circular, and diamond roots to determine the size of the corresponding shapes when given the area. Luc Pattyn[^]

He used to, but he started getting a bit of a potty mouth so he's not allowed to do that anymore.

On the front page, the "Latest Best Picks" section isn't very helpful. It is almost always full of articles with one vote of 5 -- dare I suggest the author's own vote?
Could that (and the Top Rated Articles section) impose a minimum number of votes before an article was shown in those lists?
An article that has received 10 votes and has a score of 4.9 is probably going to be a lot more interesting than an article with a single vote of 5.
Thanks,
Phillip

The reason I do this is because if there's a minimum number of votes before an article gets up there, then it's harder for an article to make it up there. I was working on the principle that if it's not worth the single '5' then it will quickly disappear to be replaced by a more worthy article, but if it is worth the 5 it will get into that list faster.

Yep, I second Chris's way of handling it. Otherwise the top-5 list will remain static as it'd be very hard for a new article to catch up with an article that has say 4.8 from 15 votes.

This is caused by our caching. I'll force a re-cache for articles with new votes

I was in the process of going "Grr, I've pasted in a URL, and it's not auto linked, I have to press the link^ button", when I discovered that pressing the link button replaced my URL with the name of the article.
While it would be even nicer if the autolink functionality comes back (I know there's a thread about this elsewhere), I'm a happy bunny about the article-text-in-link functionality!
Imagine a small tail wagging furiously.
If you're going to implement all my suggestions, I'd better not suggest changing the colour scheme to yellow on purple...

I'm on 3.0.8 as well and the autolink is working nicely[^] for me[^]

It's working for me now...
There was a noticable delay between the link showing in the post body, and it getting transformed. Maybe I just started editing previously in that delay and confused things.
OK, I'll ungrudgingly let you have my compliments!

The delay is due to the Ajax (actually, Sjax, but, well, without the X) call to get the title from the URL.

My blog's feed[^] is currently served up by FeedBurner and provides categories in the following format:
<entry ...>
<id>...</id>
<category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="CodeProject" />
...
I believe this is an Atom format, so I'm guessing the absence of any blog articles for my feed indicates that this isn't a supported format yet. Is this right?
Cheers,
Derek.

Yes that's correct. We weren't sure that there would be much demand for formats other than RSS (Atom, OPML) so we chose not support as it would've meant more development time and testing  . So.. we'll consider it if the demand is there.
Maybe you can ask FeedBurner to generate RSS rather than Atom? Or in addition to your existing feed at another URL?
|
|
|
|

OK, thanks for confirming that. From what I can see, if I specify "?alt=rss" at the end of the source feed in FeedBurner and turn off SmartFeed it will produce an RSS format feed. I'll wait and see if CP picks up any articles now.
NOTE: The "?alt=rss" will only work if your feed is provided by blogger.
