Hello,
I submitted my latest article on October 1. When I view my article Posted date at the top right says 1 October. However, if I log out and then view my article it says 30 September. The same thing happens with other articles too. When I am logged out posted date is less by one.

It's because when you are logged in all times are displayed using your timezone. When you are logged out they are displayed using the server's timezone.

When showing server time instead of local, would it be possible to indicate the timezone to avoid confusion?

Hi
Every article has a message board at its bottom,
we have a facility that we can get a notification for the messages we have answered.
BUT what I want is
would not it be better if you provide a facility that we can get the notification for every message and thread posted for that article wether we have posted an answer or not.

|
|
|
|
We're looking at implementing that.

Would be useful to refer to specific lines in the code PRE blocks when explaining functionality.
1 string s = null;
2
3
4 string s = null;
5 string s = null;
5 string s = null;
6 string s = null;
7 string s = null;
E.g. "Lines 4-7 calculate the coffee strength required for optimum productivity."
Has this idea ever been considered?

I've thought about it, and there are a few javascript includes that will do this for us. Just not sure...
Maybe we need a vote on it.

Why don't you just make it a setting in the article submission wizard, and default it to "off".

How about an attribute on the PRE tag? IIRC you can set the "lang" attribute to specify the syntax highlighting. So maybe "lineNumbers='true'" could enable the line numbers.

Now that I like. Added to the TODO

Hi all,
I will try to explain my point as clear as possible.
During a CP article lifecycle, it can change the containing folder several times. One of those changes happened when CP migrated to asp.net platform, but noticed that this is not the unique case. Editors can change the folder of an article for convenience, and even can change the article's filename.
Since CodeProject is a reputated source of articles, them are referenced in thousand of websites, but as far them are not updated, they can be keep pointing to an "old" article's folder or name.
So, I think CP should keep track of all folder/article changes and handle them smoothly. I remember this occurred at migration time, but I noticed no longer happens.
Best regards,
Jaime.

We rarely move articles now but we have the ability to easily enter new redirects. If you find broken links then let us know and we'll add them to the redirect list.

I have this case of my article RadioListBox, with hundreds of references at google:
my original article:
1) http:
was renamed at CP's .net migration to (ugly name):
2) http:
but recently renamed to (much better):
3) http:
So, there are pages that reference to page 1), and are automatically redirected to page 2), but it no longer exists!!!
My point is, when some CP guy renamed from 2) to 3), there was not an automatic feature to generate the proper redirection.
Best regards,
Jaime.

Did you see my most recent article voting suggestion?

Yep, but I'm still digging through my inbox trying to catch up on 3 weeks.
I want to give them a thorough thinkin'-through before I comment.

It would be neat to have a pane on the CP home page that showed the last five articles you posted.

Why stop at 5?
I think what should be done is to allow the article list to be sortable by date. That will instantly allow you to see the list of recent articles.
|
|
|
|

Because you can already see all of them if you go to "My Articles". I just want to keep an eye on the recent ones.

I think what Rama's suggesting is that the "My Articles" page gets a "Sort by date" feature. Then you can easily see your recent articles in the order of submission.

That would be fine too, as long as the date sorted on was the date it was originally submitted as opposed to the date last updated.
