For some reason CP started lately to simply eat the accent char in my last name. It should read ...Gonçalves and not Gonalves (the c-cedilia), but after changing it already twice in my profile it still disappears.
That smells like a nasty little bug.

Just tried changing your profile (in IE7) and it worked fine.
Hmm. Which browser were you using?

You are not going to tell me that among all the 15000 fixed bugs in FireFox3 they introduced a new subtle bug which affects CodeProjects member names with accents?
Might be, i gonna try it out, but I did change it too, and it showed the name changed. But at the next visit it was gone again.
Let me try it out with IE and FF.

A. All three appear on the main site page as box-outs and to new visitors (or those who don't speak English too well) it may not be clear that there are other, more appropriate, message boards on which to post.
Solution:
Consider naming the section "Message Boards" and placing a few more forums in this area, but with a nice ajax-y concertina collapsible panel effect so that new users can instantly see that there are more than three message boards on which to post.

When you post there is a big red warning saying 'don't post programming questions here'.
Some people just don't care to read instructions.

Have you ever come across a folder with the words "TOP SECRET - For Authorised Eyes Only" emblazoned upon the front cover in big red letters and thought to yourself, "Hmm, looks interesting - I'd best have a read of that"? 
The point being that you can issue whatever instructions you like, but unless you have the means to enforce them they won't be followed. In which case employ the art of distraction, smoke and mirrors, the great game!

Even if I did, my desire to stay out of Club Fed would keep me from doing anything other than calling security, and waiting until they sent someone around to lock it up.
Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots.

Absolutely the worst thing you could is call security. They'd tear your life apart looking for anything and everything to throw at you.

Actually doing anything other than calling security would have me in a world of trouble for violating policy, which as in my previous post, is to call them and keep eyes on it until it's properly secured.

Maybe just inverting the places? General programming up and General discussions down.
The people who use the brain will find the dicussions forums as well, the others will maybe go to the right forums at the end.

Hi everybody,
Can someone tell my why I'm not getting any E-Mail notifications to my replies in the forums?
It worked fine in the past, but after some forum software changes this functionality suddenly stopped working for me.
I already checked my spam folder, but there's luckily no CP stuff.
Is there some option I didn't find to enable e-mail notifications to forum replies again?
I do have "[x] Notify me by e-mail if someone answers this message" checked when posting a reply.
regards

Your email hadn't been confirmed in a long time. I've had a reconfirmation email sent to you and I've added some new warnings to the pages to make this clearer next time

There's 3 messages in a row posted which are questions. I think it'll get worse as idiot some people will see the questions in the forum preview and head right to it to post yet another in the wrong place.
If you can either move or remove the three messages, maybe it'll stop it from getting worse. At least for a coupe of days...

First when I posted the article it did not show up anywhere, that was fixed after a post about the issue, then when I updated the article after more than 6 days from the last modification) the article did not show as modified and even the Update Date in the article is the same as the creation date.

Need to wait 7 days. I've updated it and it's showing now

Ads used to have a link that went to a page listing all current ads on site.
Any issue in putting it back somewhere?
CP is one ofthe few sites where people actually talk (positive) about ads that pay the site - amazing really. However, if someone says "Bubble Charts I want!", it's hard to figure out why.

I almost posted the very same question yesterday, but got distracted by more pressing matters.

If you change the date range for top ranked articles and go to the next page of results, the starting date is set to its default value.

Hi - I want to recommend adding an iphone section to create a repository of all the new iphone SDK classes, modifications and tips that people will be coming up with. I know it's not Windows-based, but I don't see why it couldn't be added

It sure does..."Guidlines" instead of "Guidelines". The worst part of it is that I think it's been that way for a long while now.
