Heh.
Look, Chris asked if it was notifications from your articles or notifications about your replies that you weren't getting. And you said, yes that's the one I'm not getting. So I just jokingly asked which one are you not getting? Notifications from articles, or replies to messages?

Some weeks ago I noticed that h3 headings: subhead had become orange like the h2 headings: head It could have been intentional, but looked more like an accident.
The two levels are still distinguished by type size, but I thought using bold black for the subheads allowed them to stand out without getting the whole article too orange. At least they used to be black as I remember it.

The style sheet hasn't changed but it will. I find that the orange heading isn't so good on laptop LCD monitors so for my own sanity I'll be making the headings darker.
cheers,

In the wizard the step where you can upload files comes last.
After that step the article is switched live immediately.
The preview button is on the page before.
From my perspective it would make sense to put a preview as the last step. This would enable the author to check all file links and images.
Alternatively some sort of "article posted but not live" feature would be ok as well. Then you could check everything and switch it live after that.
Just my 2c

The "My Articles" link doesnt work anymore. The target page does not show the articles, instead is blank and needs input.
I also wonder why is it "VS.NET for $799" but "MSDN from $1,950" ??
I don't think this is a serious possesion, and the evil most likely comes from your hand. Colin J Davies, The Lounge

VS.NET for $799 means it costs $799, MSDN from $1,950 means there are many prices, the lowest being $1950.

Link was correct. Just didnt return any results. Maybe I just caught it when the DB was too busy once more?

1. I think the following boards needs to be moved to "Non-programming related discussions"
Work Issues / Certification / Resumes
Collaboration / Testing
Article Requests and Ideas
General Discussions
2. If you visit WhoisWho page [^]
Messages Posted (while logged in) "xx" It shows all messages count.
Instead of this, there needs to be two types of filtering
Programming Messages Posted (while logged in)
Non-Programming Messages Posted (while logged in)
By this we can weigh the particular person's strength. We ever answered more questions should be given extra points (towards the Medals), as a token of appreaciation.

Yes, but you can answer crap to a lot of programming questions, thus not be strengthful, and get a good medal. But I agree, this could be a solution if people play the game, as usual.

Instead of medals, It's better to give something like MVP title or Code Project Guru

I probably answer more non programming qu's by a large factor. And now when I do answer programming Qu's I use a dummy account. The reason being : reception of a lot of unsolicited emails requesting homework to be done. etc.
I know a couple of other CPians get the same.

Hi,
we had a discussion last week about the possibility of showing only unanswered questions in the different forums. (I didi not follow it till the end and couldn't find it back by searching in the lounge, so it is possible that my post does not make sense ). The problem with it is that even question with several answer posts did not eventualy find THE answer. So what i propose is to allow the poster of the question (or someone else) to set a flag when his question has been answered, and to allow everybody to only show the questions which did not have this flag.

I concur. I just scrolled through to August the other day and answered a few stragglers... It would be nice for all if the unanswered had their place.

Agreed. An extra idea to this would be that the original poster clicks a "Did this post answer your question?" button/link. That way you get the "Question Is Answered" data and the system can track who most often answers the thread correctly.

All those people who expressed concern over article quality should get together and write an article that will explain basic article good practices. This article will help people author high quality articles by explaining certain basics such as the importance of source code in an article, the importance of presentation and good grammer etc...
I would have found such a document very useful myself.

A set of writers guidelines would probably be a good idea, although I think the current guidelines on http://www.codeproject.com/info/submit.asp[^] are quiet comprehensive.
Maybe something like
Please take care with spelling and punctuation. Even if your article is wonderful, errors are a distraction and do not create a good impression. Watch out especially for its/it's, your/you're and there/their/they're.
could be added. I'm sure there must be a good grammar/writing guide on the internet the site could link to.
