There used to be a dropdown which lists all the forums in old CodeProject. This should be located somewhere near the currently displaying text ("Got a Programming Question? Click here!"). I find it missing mysteriously now and now there is an extra click (navigation) forced into list.aspx and then to chose an appropriate forum.
Some hamster has taken this dropdown and ran away during one of the upgrade nights?
Why should we force additional .ASPX processing on poor servers which are already reeling under high loads?

Reposted since initial posting was in the SB by mistake.
Is there any fix/workaround for this in the work? Having all messages marked as read because my last vist date is regularly set into the future is a royal pain.

something I just noticed that's probably related. Onthe forum list page it was reporting my local time as 5:18 on the 18th. My local time was 14:18 on the 17th. My local clock and my timezone setting are correct for Eastern (GMT-5).

I recently posted to an article, but the site complained I was using unicode and wouldn't let me post: "Please do not use Unicode characters in posts. ASCII only". I wasn't using unicode or any special symbols.
I was, however, using HTML encoding to hide my email address in my signature using the '[ampersand][pound][ascii_number];' notation in the HREF and hyperlink text. I could post if I removed this portion.
I've had it like this for quite some time now, but I haven't posted in a long time so I'm not sure when this changed.

pound isn't ASCII. ASCII holds 7-bit values only, so no accents, pounds, euros, copyrights, ...

Please It really makes it hard to find relevant articles.

The is a whole new search thing, with lots of fancy options... apparently.
It is currently disabled while they sort stuff out, so for now, you'll just have to put up with it i guess.

You still can't see the votes on your messages posted page. This includes votes made before CP was upgraded. Also it's annoying that there's no "next" button at the bottom of the page (there's one at the top). I'm sorry to harp on about this but the lose of this functionality is a real downer for me.

Does anyone know how I can update my article in codeproject. I have began an article but has not completed it yet. When I go to "my Articles" section I can see that the article is listed there but when I click it it says "It does'nt exist" . Any help would be appreciated.

There is a bug in our system that is not allowing you to update the articles yet. We are hoping to have that ironed out in the next couple of days.
In the meantime you could send an update directly to submit@codeproject.com in order to have an editor kick start the process for you. You can ask them to leave it "unedited" if you wish to be able to go back and re-edit it yourself later.

When searching (at least for articles), the prev/next buttons are no longer found at the bottom.

When a reply notification comes for a message posted in discussion forum, in old CodeProject the sender would be forums@codeproject.com and hence the footnote disclaimer
Note: This message has been sent from an unattended email box. is applicable. But now, the messages are being sent as from 'webmaster@codeproject.com '.
Also, when we use the Email hyperlink, the actual sender email is being but in the 'TO' list. Wouldn't the former approach of forums@codeproject.com would be better for better Spam Control and Address Whitelisting Ease?

Thank you. That would help a simpler whitelisting and also save the 'existing' email address from being divulged across the Internet.

Too many questions are posted to the SQL forum which don't state which database server software is being used or which version of that server software. It's very easy to accidentally mislead someone by posting an answer assuming that they're using Microsoft SQL Server when in fact they're using MySQL or something else.
It would be useful if there was some reminder to people posting questions that not everyone is using the same database server and there are enough differences between servers and versions that questions can be misinterpreted.

for example. Why u r used us as alpha testers?

Contrary to popular beleif, extra z's on the false word 'plz', don't actually make thinks any faster. Infact, in my experience, it slows or completely stops whatever it is you're trying to acheive, the correct word is 'Please'. No extra letters, no fewer letters. Then you will get a much better response.
Second of all, the site was tested thoroughly before it was launched, you could even visit the Beta version for quite a while.
They are still ironing out a few bugs, and i'm sure if you try to do whatever it is you where trying to do again, it will work.
Also, if you could read and keep yourself updated with the thread at the top of the Lounge message board.
A few more notes, 'u' and 'r' are not words, they are letters. I beleive you where looking to the words 'You' and 'Are'.
The phrase 'Why you are used us as alpha testers?' is terrible grammer, you need to use the past tense, 'Have'. Also, in this past tense question, 'You' should come after 'Are' or 'Have'.
So, the final question, in good English becomes:
'Why have you used us as alpha testers?'
and the answer is, they havn't.

I just notice this myself. I believe it a UTC thing. I'm -5:00 UTC on Dec 16, 1:40 PM. I just saw some message posted 4:20 AM, Dec 17. I suspect the server's local time is +4:00.
Where are the sertvers located? Australia is +10: Current Local Time in Australia[^]
