Yes, that's true. Don't you know that new users must pay $5 fee for membership? And for article you'll recieve $10-50 (depends on rating)
just kidding! that 0 is problem that happens - Few times CP had 0 members, too
best regards,

nice sig, btw

A couple of times each week I notice a new unedited article that appears twice. I am assuming the reason is the author submits it once, then goes back to make a change, and submits it again, only to find he has to change the base name of the article to get it to post, not realising quite how it works. Or maybe it's another reason altogether?
Maybe you take a look at the article submission wizard and see if there was a way you could prevent this? The article could be held in a special purgatory (scrap disk and memory only) until the author completes the end of the submission process at which time it could be entered into the database and final directory, else it would get tidied up every hour or so and sent to the recycle bin in the sky.
Just a thought.

Howdy all and happy new year to you CP fans....I am a major fan of this site and would love to know is there any plans to archive ALL articles for offline viewing....something like what Dr.Dobb's Journal or C/C++ User's Group have done, put them on a CD - a bi-annual or yearly chockfull of articles for browsing. I'd happily shell out $50 for a CD so that I can quickly view an article for checking up on ie. 'Am I doing this code correctly, the book is useless'.
As I'm a standalone programmer (who isn't? ), I don't have much backup in place such as I have one or two books but they are not sufficient enough for my needs. I often find myself looking at a couple of articles on this site and say 'Jeez, why didn't I not think of that' or 'Hey that algorithm looks better and faster...' etc...
Any ideas,
Many thanks and keep up the fab. work.
Tom.
P.S: I tried to get the Codeproject web page up on my mobile hoping that I can glance at the top 5 articles etc but it didnt work.

This has been asked a number of times before. From what I understand there are copyright issues. Imagine the number of people who have written articles and each of them needs to be asked. Now, I'd be happy to allow CP to archive my articles on a CD, but others might not. Also, many people, myself included, update their articles periodically when they learn something new or realised a way they could explain the subject better. The website will always contain the most up-to-date version of the articles, whereas the CD will naturally stay static.

Then how was CG able to put everyone's articles into a book and sell it?

Dunno. It could be the Chris can do it but doesn't care to chase down the legal issues to make sure. Or it could be the CG shouldn't have done it, but who's going to sue and for how much over something like that? Suing would be an expensive option and probably would be difficult to win anyway.

Sometimes I log in to CP from a client's pc, and I will remain logged in unless I remember to log out before I leave. It would be nice to have something like a "Don't ask for my password for 2 weeks" checkbox like gmail does, so this won't be a problem (if I forget). Unchecked, the login would be sticky forever, like it is now.

Just uncheck "remember me" when logging in - when you close your browser, your infomation isn't saved, and you don't need to remember to log out.
You left me high and dry and changed me
You lied to me and now i’m angry...

|

Not the same thing - I want to be able to be logged in automatically for today (or a few days), but not forever.

Right now CP shows how users are online ex: 5530 Online. But it would be cool to show how many are using FireFox or IE browser.
ex: 5530 Online (2000 FF, 3530 IE)

The Fantastic Four trailer was what came to my mind.

It's not that the colors are too bright, it is that there is no dark outline around it like the others.

Many nights we prayed with no proof anyone could hear, we were moving moutains long before we knew we could !
Yet now i'm standing here, although we know there's much to fear, hope seems like summer bird too swiftly flown away ...
There can be miracles! When you believe, though hope is frail, it's hard to kill !
Who knows what miracles, you can achieve! When you believe, somehow you will ...

Me too, every time I try and submit an editted mesage. It has been happening since the 3rd, and is reproducable 100% of the time.

I been surfing the net for past 1 hour, visited many sites and stuff but nothing is slower than CodeProject.
Agreed that you are working hard to put things together, but if the codeproject downloads slowly it means it is slow.
doubt:
Is it because of ASP server? i have seen couple of other ASP servers running slow like this even if few users are accessing it.
