Is a howto for this available somewhere. I'd like to be able to do this...

If you set your permissions the feature should then be available to you.

The email sent when a post is added to an article's forum is very limited as to the number of lines, and frequently is cut off, especially if the poster includes a code snippet, which are often very useful. (Yes, I know I could go to the forum and read it, but often I am not using my own PC, and have to log on).
Can this be configurable? If not, can it be set to something reasonable, like 100 or 200 lines?

I can certainly up the number of characters (I'll double it for now). It's done like this because members were getting massive emails and complaining.

Could you make message size a user configurable option?

Would it be possible to have a Copy to Clipboard button at the top of each pre block?

Hans, that's freaky.
I put one in last night. Uploading today.

That's what I like about CP - always proactive.

Should the editor's name that appears at the bottom of an article page be an email link, rather than a link to the editor's Who's Who page?

|

No - too much spam

I don't mean a hard link - I mean a link to the form that you get when you click on the Email button in a post.

Ah, so a 'Send the editor an email' link? Right. Will add as a TODO

Right, I think this will help beginners who don't understand the editing process.

Hi Chris,
I was just searching for a tool (SP GEN) on CP. I found it quite tedious in a way that i have to move back to the original page ( tab) to read about the next article. Won't it be nice to have a portion for "People who read this also read".

What does it mean when the Modify option disappears from one of your own articles?

This usually mean that it's been edited.

Is that a bug or a feature?
I did notice that a few of the larger images got cropped down to 600px which made them blurry.

When an article is "edited" by a CP editor, the header background color changes from pale manly blue to pale manly yellow, and the Modify button disappears. All this means is that you should contact the CP editor who edited your article if you want to change it, replace files, etc. You should have gotten an email from a CP editor announcing that your article has been edited. If not, you can look at the bottom line of your article page for the editor's name. In any case, you can always send email to submit@codeproject.com, with the article URL in the subject line.

Thanks Hans. Are all accepted articles eventually edited by a CP edtior? Is that the final phase an article goes through?
Todd Smith

Eventually is the optimum word. Many articles have been here many moons and have still not reached the last step of the journey. They are condemned to wander about the site aimlessly yearning for perfection when perfection just will not come.
Yes, articles edited by an editor is the last step of the process.

A consulting section on CP where those of us that are independent consultants can have a central place to advertise effectively. Expensive enough to keep out the spam, cheap enough to be affordable. Potentially a peer rating system and a client rating system. Yadda, yadda, but not a forum to place bids for low priced work, just a place where a company, could at glance see a list of possibles with fast information any the potential to generate good leads for those of us that pursue that particular line.
The only hard-line I would take with such a service would be the caveat that it would only be open to browsing from actual companies and not fake recruiting companies and/or recruiters.
