Nice idea. The forum of VC++ went away from the drop-down list at the main page and I have to go into the main list to be able to select it

I was not sure where to post this, so here it is. I cannot find an article that I recently submitted, I know that it is still unedited, but should it not at least show in the "My Articles" section?

Thanks, and also now it appears in the list of articles, but now it is in the bottom since it has been posted and hidden for 2 days. I guess there is no way to change the date, no one will get to notice my article Anyways thanks for the help.

If you make a minor change you mark it as updated, and it will go through the list again. Keep in mind though, that you can update once every six days (or so). Just go through the edit article wizard.

Hello.
According to you suggestion, I made modifications to the article, yet the updated date did not change and the article was not even marked as update. I checked the "Mark as Updated" checkbox when submitting, and it has been more than 6 days since my last modification, so what is the problem? Is it a general bug or just specific to my article??!

I know this has been asked in various ways at various different times, but can we have the list of forums that shows up at the top of each forum at least sorted alphabetically. I noticed that two new forums were added and the sorting is very different from what it used to be. It would also be nice to put a "new" indicator next to the new forums, at least for the first week. If I wasn't paying attention, I might have missed the new ones.

oops. Removed. They were for LAMP only.
Yes - I do need to make this more consistent though.

 I had a feeling that was the case.

When replying to a post, the "Quote Selected Text" button is missing in some instances. It seems to be happening when the post being replied to has been voted low.

Hmm - that doesn't make sense (though I'm not disputing there could be a weird bug). Is this consistent?

This is the first post I noticed it on. I found a few others before creating this post.

It's showing for me for FF, IE, and Safari.
Except that Safari crashed immediately. I hate safari.

The good answer/bad answer feature has resulted in a rash of 'bad answer' votes, usually from people who have no idea what a good answer is, or a personal vendetta. I suggest that the OP and users above a certain level only can mark good/bad answers in a programming forum.

That's probably a valid scenario. One question does come up...what determines when the "good/bad" (helpful/unhelpful) options appear and the regular 1-5 votes appear?
If I look at this message[^] it has the "helpful/unhelpful" buttons, but this one[^] doesn't.

They appear when you remember to select the "Answer" message type above, as I have just done!

The Good/Bad Answer buttons only show for the first level of responses to the initial post. All replies to the replies will show the 1-5 scale at the bottom of the message (this can be seen in the two examples you mentioned).

Could we have it so that when posting a new message at the top of the screen it says "Posting a new message in the [insert forum here]" (or similar)? I just confused myself and wasn't sure where I was posting.
|
|
|
|
|
Also, could we have some clever question you have to answer, to prevent posting when drunk?

I was sober when it happened. I'm sure as heck not now
