As much I remember, this was discussed earlier and there is a feature in TO-DO list to convert an article into a tip/trick.
|
|
|
|
|
This could be accomplished by using the Report functionality. As soon as an item is reported it will no longer be available to be moderated. We could then review and convert it to an article, then send it back to the moderation queue as an article.
Would that work?

Yes I'm nit-picking here but I can't control myself. The Tool-tips for the emoticons are not showing up in FF v3.6.13.

Really?
Works for me - when I hover over the icon above, I get the text "Confused" in a tootltip.
Oh wait - I'm at work and I'm using IE...

For ex. THIS[^]
See the ADD Answer Multiline TextBox, Second column of Icon is getting cut and I am unable to see it.
I think of browser specific problem, But just want others to review on the same.
Browser : Google Chrome 8.0
ScreenCut[^]

I can get mine to do that on demand, all i need to do is shrink the browser window until it starts happening!
So, to put it another way, how wide is your browser session / window resolution?

You should never browse The Code Project half-cut!

When I edit a question in Q/A the Code Block is not formatted correctly; sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I am using FF v3.6.13.
Thanks.

It works all the time. Looks like you missed this checkbox that read:"Ignore HTML in text (good for code snippets)"
If this is checked then the PRE tags are ignored. Try next time - for now, I have corrected it for the reported question.

I stand corrected...as usual. Thanks.

I think that happens sometimes because when you click "Improve Question" the checkbox to ignore HTML automatically gets checked. At least, I think something like that happens. It's a little confusing.

Hi,
In My Posts - Question section, number of votes is not getting calculated.
Thanks,
Amit

Can you elaborate more please? I am not sure if anyone can clearly make out what you are trying to report here.
|
|
|

Here are the steps to reproduce what I stated earlier:
1) I login to CodeProject
2) I click on Question and Answers and select "View Unanswered Questions"
3) The View Unanswered Questions screen has a button "My Posts". I click that.
4) There are two tabs on the screen that show up after click My Posts button.
5) The first tab "Questions" show questions that I asked.
In those questions the voting is not getting calculated.
Please let me know if it is still unclear.

Now put foundations under them.

This was what is unclear to me. Your steps simply took me to the questions asked by you (which I can also go via your profile, here[^])
Now, I see you have asked 5 questions and none of them were voted up/down. So no votes.
Votes box would show any number if the 'question' was voted up or down. It would not count the answers if they were voted.

Oh ok, you mean to say that the voting of answers inside the question is not counted. Only the individual vote for the question gets counted.

Yes!

Allright, thanks for clearing that out.

The vote is counted but for the answerer. The answerer answers the question so the points (high or low) from the votes for the answer is given to him/her. And that's how it should work. Isn't it?

Generally, inquirers' programming Questions are formulated horrifically incorrecty. We cannot do much about that.
But there is just one question I have to ask inquirers again and again: "Is this about System.Windows.Forms or WPF?!".
It looks like people working with one system are completely unaware that anybody is working with another or both. As I give out advices on both, so asking for this detail almost every time UI is involved drives me crazy.
My suggestion is: would it be possible to place a big announcement/warning like: "If your question is about UI, don't forget...". It would save hundreds of useless transactions...
Thank you for your understanding.
Best wished in New Year!

Unfortunately, there is no foolproof way to negate the stupidity of many people asking questions.
In spite of having previously been advised that they are posting in the wrong forum, some still continue to do so. Asking SQL questions in the C# or VB forums for example.

When one fills in the text input of the submission form (example: the Answers: "Add your answer here"), preview is shown dynamically (per on changed event or even per timer tick -- I don't know exactly). Apparently, this leads to redundant updates of the preview text and in practice can slow down the process.
What is worse, this feature sometimes practically hangs the page (even scroll bars and text selection). This happens when the site is busy (probably above some critical limit). In such situation (I experienced few minutes ago) closing the page, cancellation of all other loading pages from the site and starting over may help. Submission is often successful if a whole text input control is filled in on Paste operation -- editing the text back and force makes hanging very likely.
I'm using Mozilla SeaMonkey, but I think this server-side problem will be manifested with any client in one or another way.
I think this is new feature, but not so welcome one. I would propose replacing it with simpler but robust feature: "Update preview" button (perhaps not just "Preview" with generation of separate page, but this is acceptable).
Thank you for your understanding.
Best wishes in New Year!
