I miss it badly.
I don't recall it ever being a feature. So, I am at a loss as to how you can miss a feature that never existed.

Give that you posted it on CP the context would seem to suggest that is where you meant.

Number of views is on almost all of the forums I go to.

Ah, yes.... But CodeProject isn't "almost all". It is more exclusive than that.

Hmmm... Yes. It is exclusive. It's cool and nice. (Cheers chris)
But I like the view count on other forums so I was suggesting it over here.

Tracking the number of times a post is viewed means extra work for the DB server(s).

And is a pretty meaningless statistic anyway. I can't for the life of me find a valid use for seeing the view count on posts.

I can tell you that it annoys me when I see a thousand or so people viewing a problem post and not getting a response. That's about the only use I've gotten out of it, tho.

What's there to be annoyed about it.

You've gotta be kidding me, right!? When you have a problem you can't figure out and have been hammering away at it all day, you're hoping that a message board will solve your problems. When you see tons of people reading your post, but you get no responses, it just sucks. How could that not annoy you?

Huh Meaningless.
I don't think so.
It should be having some use that's why other's are having it. May be you have missed it.

Enlighten us who can't see it. What use is that statistic?

I was monitoring the number of views for the articles "Running NUnit tests from FinalBuilder
By RedSunBeer" and "How to estimate a software project in man-hours? By RedSunBeer" and find that the count has decreased. In the first case it has decreased from 2,745 to 2,255 and in the second case from 30,601 to 30,380. The dates are 05/Dec/2005 to 02/Jan/2006.
How did this happen?

My article[^] had thousands (IIRC) of page views when it was an "unedited contribution". Now it has only 136 views after being edited. Is that normal? Page views are an important indicator for the success of an article. Are they really thrown away?

We had a small database issue that results in some page view data being lost. Apologies for the inconvenience.

I've viewed it again - even though it's it's just a drop in the ocean
We say "get a life" to each other, disappointed or jokingly. What we forget, though, is that this is possibly the most destructive advice you can give to a geek.

I'm having some problems searching the CodeProject site. Recently I wanted some info and the MSVC Start Page. I first did a search for <b>"start page"</b> (with the quotes). The search returned 0 results. I then removed the quotes and reran the search and found numerous articles that returned the results below. Notice that the string <b>"start page"</b> is included in all the articles. I would have expected the first search to catch these articles. Am I using the search engine improperly?
Regards,
Chris

You are but there is a problem with the search engine that will be fixed shortly.
