I understand the load issues, but rolling your own word breaking, indexing and searching stuff isn't rocket science and it's quite easy to squeeze many orders of magnitude better performance out of that when it's custom built for a specific application than a generic multi-purpose app.
Searching is such an important feature that if it's truly a load issue that's hampering it, it really should be a dedicated server for indexing and searching.
I don't know, it's obviously more difficult than it seems from the outside and running a website for developers can't be easy with a million of us in the peanut gallery thinking how we could do it better. I guess I should just accept it and worry about my own stuff!

I'd imagine that is the hardest part, especially since we all have our own little pet peeves, search, performance, HTML layout, etc. Though, better forum search is up there with things I'd like to see. At least most of the 500s and timeouts have cleared up.

This is a priority. Just give me a few days to recover from jetlag and put out any fires that started during my two weeks off

Just increase the date gap. The first one. It should be above 3(which is the default) months. Then it searches like a tracer bullet. Make it something like 5 months or more and see the results.

You meant we have to initialize the search function?!

Hehe. Helpless had to do it. As it was taking years to search. So I changed the parameters in the first one to check. And Lol Lol Lol Lol I couldn't believe it.

I knewly submitted an article, displayed on the main page in the Latest section...but not in its RSS feed
what is the problem?
|
|
|
|
|
The RSS feeds are split into categories and only display the latest 10 articles over a certain rating threshold. It could be you were looking at a feed which didn't include your article, or your article had been pushed out by a newer article (and the homepage cache hadn't been updated yet) or your article fell below the rating threshold

Someone must have mentioned it before already, but it would be nice to receive notifications if an article of interest gets updated. It could be added as a checkbox for every bookmarked article in the "My Bookmarks" page or it could be an option on its own.
Thanks

What's the bug there? The page loaded fine for me just now.

The problem is - all articles show up in a single category (".NET/Active Directory")...
Please fix.

Hi ,
Why not have a separate core C++ forum ? instead of messing the things with VC++ UI and Win32 forums?

Can I ask GCC questions in VC++ forum?!

There should be some feature, where a discussion thread could be moved into a different forum altogether.
For example, in some cases, a person may have asked about 'Job or Resume' related question in
'Web Development' forum. For the sake of courtesy and with a helping hand, people might have replied to it.
To have a better reach of this solution to all future users of this requirement/question, an editor/admin/webmaster should be having a flexibility of moving the entire thread to a discussion forum. In our example, move the entire thread from 'Web Development' to 'Work/Resume'

They can already do that.

I know I've asked for this before, but I'd really like to see a forum for questions that are related to software design only - patterns, object models, best practices, etc.

I agree with Dunlap. I need this forum too.
Best regards, Alexey.

It would be a great forum, its a subject that very much interests me. Unfortunately i believe it would be abused & have the total wrong type of questions posted... hell people cant even get coding questions in the right place some of the time!
