Thank you Sean, I know you guys are super-nice. What I was looking for were suggestions for an workflow that allows me to keep the content in a more user-friendly format than HTML. In the meantime, I'll keep muddling along

I know thisa is a bit old, however, for those interested in using Markdown, I use Markdown Monster: The Markdown Editor for Windows[^] to write my article, then use the copy option that can copy as html, paste into CP source page, then clean it up.

Interesting...
Do you have to clean up many things?

Been a little while since my last article. Mainly the code block markup is different.

Well... that sounds like something pretty manageable

I'd like to write my first article. Using HTML looks painful. Does anyone have any info on CP accepting Markdown?
Graeme
Markdown Monster looks nice.
- Please clarify "copy option". Do you mean "Save as HTML"?
- Please clarify "paste into CP source page". Do you mean the codeproject_template.htm? or the submission wizard page?

If you send me the Markdown version, I can help you get it posted. sean@codeproject.com

I've written some fairly long articles entirely within the tool, occasionally switching to its HTML mode (mostly for tables). I just do a lot of saves and previews. It teaches them a lesson by busying out their server!

I wrote mine in Notepad with the HTML Tags per hand.
Then used the preview and modified the Notepad version before select all+copy+paste+preview again.
Have been a while though... I am not sure if I would now have the same patience

Saw this Motivational Numerology[^] article on the home page. Seems iffy and spammy to say the least, perhaps someone could verify? Not sure where to post this, as the user is a long time member and article writer.

How To Use Polly In C#: Easily Handle Faults And Retries[^]
format broken, a bunch of bad links, asking for suscription, affiliation links, several this appeared first on in addition to the CP's blog feed entry...
@Sean-Ewington or @Chris-Maunder would you mind to speak with him some serious words?
Is the second time I post it here because his content is not bad and I think he can do better in this topic, but it is getting annoying with his pushing passive earning sources and site driving efforts.
Next time I will report him in the S&A, sorry.

I sent him an email. If you see a blog entry like this next week I will delete the feed and consider this matter closed.

This guy[^] has yesterday fed a bunch of blogs at once (IIRC at least 11). Some of them are getting approved already, some still in moderation.
Almost all of them have:
(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){ (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');</p> <p> ga('create', 'UA-78764756-1', 'auto'); ga('send', 'pageview');</p> <p>
mostly at the end of the post just after the codeproject tag.
Additionally some of the posts are breaking images / videos width boundaries.
@sean-ewington Would you mind to have a look to his publications, correct what is needed and maybe have some words with him to tell him how to do it properly for the next serie?

In my inbox, along with this message from you, is an email from the author saying he was just trying to share one entry and all these other entries got gobbled up. I'll try and sort out what happened and removed the erroneous entries.

While I applaud the use of Step Functions and showing their use, Composing poésie concrète with AWS Step Function[^] is a political message. While I deplore what has happened to Ukraine, and do feel pity for Ukrainians, I don't think that Code Project is the place for this. I may be wrong though.

Agree 100%, wrong place for this IMHO.

People still use COBOL. People still have Windows XP running on machines. Why do I mention this? Just because there's something new and shiny on the horizon, it doesn't mean that people don't still use old things. Your articles might be just the thing that they need so removing them would be a real shame.

We can see this in Q&A, albeit not that often, questions asked about very old tech i.e. VB6 etc. When I search for a possible solution, many a time these old articles will pop up and can be used as a solution for the OP (mostly than not grinding our teeth in silence on why they would persist in using old tech  ).

We don't actively hunt them down for disposal. But if we or someone else discovers an an article the case is something like, "this is deprecated and can't be altered to be current," we will remove the article. Similarly, if an author wants to remove their old articles, we will remove them at their request.
Thanks,

Ok, Thanks.
Based on what Pete O'Hanlon said above I think I will leave them up for now. But it is good to know that you guys are not so attached to old articles that you want to keep them forever.
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

In 2019 I found that one of the best articles I read about a concrete Topic was in the MSDN Archive written in 2007. I even shared the page where I found "almost" the whole collection and there were a lot of people saying thanks for that.
At the end... old != wrong
And as Pete said above... We still have some XP computers running old industrial software that wasn't updated to 64 bit architechture and we couldn't make it work in a win7 32-bit edition, I only hope that those places get deprecated and out of production before the PCs get broken... if not, we will have a problem.
And no, sadly porting it to a VM is not an option.
additionally
My only article is MFC VC++ 6 too and it still gets some downloads of the code or even bookmarking from time to time.
Have you checked your article stats?
