All I need is a very basic answer. I have a question about Search results at Codeproject. When I type into the control box a big old mean set of words such as the title of this bugsug ... how is it that I get ZERO returns? Zero, as in, zed, null, bubbkiss, and possibly nothing (that last one because only because there's probably some human on the other side of the answering booth fiddling with buttons and knobs who got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning, and not a an algorithm with a flesh face)?
(On a lighter note: only six days left until 64-bit VS launches! Yeah!)
[EDIT]
... para ... IS NOT ... parallel ...
[/EDIT]
[EDIT circa 211222]
The only acceptable answer to this question is:
Use Google and the string "https://www.codeproject.com", the word AND. then what you are searching for at CP; example: "the minimum (oldest) version of visual studio that can open this solution file".
In that example return you can count the actual cp pages containing the final string: ZERO!
The answer is "There are zero pages on cp". NOT 11,976.

It’s the ‘:’ in the query. This is a character that tries to filter the results of in the field named by the preceding string. We use Lucene.net and it’s query syntax.

I've changed my signature at least 4 times of recent, I still get the same old one back. What am I doing wrong?
What I have tried:
I keep changing the signature when posting a reply. no joy. It's my understanding that to edit your sig you do it when posting, but I haven't done it for a very long time.

1. Click on your user name at the upper right of the page.
2. Click on My Settings at the left.
3. Click on the Forums & QA tab.
4. Edit your Message Signature, the last item under Discussion Forums.

Oh 
for the sake of my sanity, did I just make up editing the signature elsewhere?

Not sure if this is a bug or design intent, but when a comment is deleted (by the poster) or closed (for being inappropriate), it continues to appear, with the faint grey text "Deleted" at its upper right. For example, see my comment to this question[^], which also appears on my "Comments made"[^] page.
|
|
|
|
|
This is by design.
You can see it for two reasons:
1. you wrote it.
2. You have sufficient rep.
This allows the moderators to review deleted comments and correct or delete them if the reason for deletion was not valid.
Members without sufficient rep, or not logged in can't see the deleted comments.

Thanks for the explanation.

This appears to have happened, but, since there's no record of the comment in my status/history page, i assume this may be "fake news"

I think Protectors can delete questions and answers, so I presume comments as well. But the strange thing is, when a comment gets flagged as inappropriate, I can still see it in the poster's "Comments made" list, only marked "Deleted".
|
|
|
|

Could you point out the Question or Answer the Comment was for so I can look for it and when it was posted. Some idea of the content would help.
It should only be marked as deleted and still show up on you Comment History.

thanks, Matthew,
i would not disclose that "publicly" for fear of alleging something without reliable evidence.

Some <pre> blocks in QA are not limiting their height and adding a scroll-bar, and the "copy code" link is missing.
For example: Data loss while received from serialport.[^]
Same result in Firefox 93 and Chrome 95.
There are no errors in the browser console, only a few CSP warnings.

This is the result of yesterday's deployment of some 'improved' functionality.
Looks like we missed an edge case.
Working on it.
