Yes, this was an unfortunate bug we fixed a week or so ago. I think I know a way to recover the records of the missing votes but it's not 100% guaranteed.

Hi,
For me, I think the total number of votes is accurate but when you count all votes(5,4,3,..) it is wrong!!! I mean, for instance, the total number is 15, and when I count votes it is 19! For total 15 is accurate I think but some extra votes are reported in the small chart beside the total number!
Thanks
I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.

I got the same problem. If I look at the voting graph all votes are there. It's just the summary that seems to be wrong. Maybe you just need to recalculate all summaries?

It seems that both the voting graph and the summary can be touched by this bug.
For me one article has the voting graph all wrong it says
2 votes on 4. 2 votes on 5
While the summary says 33 votes. (and they should be mostly on 4 and 5)
On the other articles the summary seem wrong
For example 23 votes on the summary but 67 votes if I hover the 5-vote column.
So it seems both are jinxed. I can provide snapshots if you need them.
Cheers

I would like to see the ability to up-vote someone in the Lounge or other forums. I wouldn't put the down-vote option back in the general forums, serves no effective purpose really.
Our members post some great stuff and I would like to let them and the community know without necessarily writing about it every time.
I have seen this method of up-voting done on other sites and it seems to work well.
If you were performing an experiment with the voting here, you can stop now.
Thanks.

Oh, look - it's been three threads since someone last mentioned the voting/reputation points issues. Must be time to complain about it again!

Clean up in aisle three!
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

Please add the file extensions for yacc and lex to the browse code so that those files can be browsed. Otherwise I have to download the whole project zip.
Thanks

I forced a re-crawl of your article and it is now searchable

That is great stuff, Matthew!
Little disappointing hits regarding this article, hopefully it will raise now.

Hi,
No reputation points are being added for answering a question.
I have observed for few members the reputation increasing without their answer being upvoted/or accepted, so not sure if bug creating problem for all users or only for some users.
Before any esteemed member tells me that the points are immaterial and why do I care for it, let me tell that I DO NOT care points while answering a question but I think all CP owes its members some clarification in this regard.
Thanks,
Milind

How many more people are going to ask this question again and again? And how many more times does it need to be explained?

Don't mind Richard... he's grumpy on the occasion (as we all are I guess). Yeah, this hasn't been working correctly for a bit.

What do you mean on the occasion? I'll have you know I'm always grumpy.
I am getting bored with seeing all these questions about points, both here and in the lounge. That is really not what CodeProject is about.

Correction... Always grumpy.
...yeah, a lot of people ask but you also don't have to answer...although at this point I'm sure Chris shares your feelings.

Hi Milind_T,
I understand your concern expressed here; I am sure many CP member share the same concern.
But, I suggest you consider the "big picture" here: there is a technical problem, it involves some complex issues of server migration of vasts amount of data; Chris has clearly identified the nature of the problem in the pinned post at the top of this forum, and, he has reassured us all that all original data is intact.
Why not assume, as I believe most of us do, that the entire CP staff is working night and day to solve the problems, and that Chris is probably in the midst of a "heroic" struggle, working with ferocious intensity, to (American slang) "take care of business."
Think of all the good things CodeProject has given you: the information; answers to your technical questions; access to brilliant articles from master programmers; perhaps, even emotional support. Wit, laughter, and companionship, in the Lounge, on almost any level you can imagine.
All for free !
Surely, this is a time for patience among us: we, the lucky nine-million plus ?
regards, Bill

CP owes us nothing. It's a free of charge service and no one forces us to use it. The fact that you are posting this shows you DO care about the points; if you did't, you wouldn't be checking your reputation to see if the points were added or not.

This has now been fixed.

Thanks for confirming Chris. And sorry to cause pain to some by this question
I was thinking if it would be good idea not to give point for answering. At times I have seen it instigates new member to answer for sake of answering with just some one-liner and/or a link. If only acceptance or upvoting earns points then it refrains such users from putting silly answers. There are many sites which practice this.
Thanks,
Milind
