Ever since the migration, ALL messages posted (the 200 listed on the personal page) are
marked NEW, even when they are one week old or more. Since we now are "past the migration",
lets do something about it?
TIA.

Messages are marked as 'new' based on your last visit. Take a look at the bottom of the message board and let me know what you see.
It could be a bug in our timezone stuff, or it could be a cookie issue your end.

Hi Chris,
my first messages page shows messages dated today downto 26-FEB, all
marked new.
At the bottom it says things such as "Last Updated 17 Nov 2007" and "Web12".
The copyright is OK: "Copyright © CodeProject, 1999-2008"

1.
I removed several cookies (all that had "codeproject" in their name), didn't make any difference.
2.
called a lot of pages, and discovered three different last update dates get returned,
very consistently; they are independent of server name, but directly linked to forum name:
<br />
<br />
Lounge<br />
<br />
Web07 = 06-MAR-2008 that's OK<br />
Web09 = 06-MAR-2008<br />
Web10 = 06-MAR-2008<br />
Web15 = 06-MAR-2008<br />
Web16 = 06-MAR-2008<br />
Web17 = 06-MAR-2008<br />
Web18 = 06-MAR-2008<br />
Web19 = 06-MAR-2008<br />

Wrong Last Update
Check at the bottom of the forum, not the page. You will see something like:
Last Visit: Wednesday, March 5, 2008 7:40 PM Last Update:Wednesday, March 5, 2008 8:17 PM

Any message newer than the Last Visit date will appear as "new". If you are seeing messages that are older than your Last Visit date then we have ourselves a bug.

Yeah, I'm telling you you have a bug:
- I post messages (almost) every day
- I visit my "last messages" page (almost) every day (I regret it does not list on the main
menu, next to "My Articles", "My Bookmarks" and "My Settings")
- all the entries on the four "last messages" pages claim to be new, although most of them
are more than a week old.
I'm leaving now, it's getting late. Good hunting...

When CP went .NET my profile's job title switched from Software Engineer to Web Developer;
I sure did not modify it myself. I simply set it back to a more appropriate choice, and did
not care much at that time, performance and availability being the bigger issues.
Ever since, I noticed quite a lot of people get called web developer, actually many more than I
care to expect. On the other hand I don't remember having seen anyone complaining about
titles being changes.
Any comment?
Any statistics available from before and after the switch?
Maybe a fix?

Im pretty sure ever'body went to Web Developer because of the change in the job description... thing.
It was a while ago though, so i don't really remember.

We decided to bucket the jobs into a set list of Job Titles and unfortunately we weren't sophisticated enough to tranlate the free-form job title that we used to allow into the set title we did allow, so had to rely on other things. One of those things was your newsletter interest list and if we saw "Web" we went "clearly this person is a bona fide web developer".
And then we made sure you could fix it.

I published this article[^] and it's Page Views count is still at zero. I know for a fact that people have viewed the page (including myself), so I'm not sure why that's happening. Thanks.

It would be cool to be able to mark an article (or member) in order to keep track of articles or people that are interesting. Sometimes I read a good article and want to reference it in the future, just not right now. Afterwards, it becomes a game of remembering, keyword searches or google. Being able to mark an article would be nice.
I use my own system of adding a comment to an article so I can go back through my posts to find articles but it's kind of lame. And sometimes I don't really want to comment, just be able to reference in more detail later.
At the very least, just a list of articles that I've voted on (similar to the "Last Updates" with a rating threshhold screening) would help in sorting through later. You're storing that info anyway.
Something similar to this (mock-up from the profile page)
Messages Posted: 335
Articles Submitted: 5
Articles Marked: 28
Members Marked: 49
with links to see the articles and members marked.

Nevermind. Luc just pointed it out.
Maybe relocating it? Like down where you rate an article, comment on an article or mark an article? I usually read the article and then decide on rating it or adding a comment. For whatever reason I've ignored the top menu in the past.
Thanks Luc! I guess I can get rid of my little folder with browser links to articles.
Boy do I feel

Yes, up to the moment you have hunderd or more bookmarks; then you will start complaining
about insufficient searching, sorting, classifying facilities...

Since yesterday, sometimes the width of side-bar frame (where we see the links for "Monthly Competition", "We're hiring", and "CHAPTERS", etc.) gets crazy.
The width of items in the frame is as usual, but the width of the frame increases. So we see extra 2 cm wide spare space.
And the horizontal scroll bar shows up!

Maxwell Chen,
This is IE 6, right?
What OS you are on?
And can you reproduce the steps, when this bug happens?
Thanks in advance.
