This is by design.
The author's name at the time of posting is stored in the message to speed up processing, to keep history from changing, and to allow us to delete accounts and still have a name associated with a message.
If they click on the name, it will still go to the correct profile.

Can I change it? Maybe by editing it, so it gets updated in my posts.

I always thought it was to facilitate joke posts in the lounge where people pretend to be the cow-orker another member just ranted about.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

A CodeProject group has applied to join the group I created and manage.
My question is this: After accepting the membership request, will all 149 members of that group be able to view our private message board or only the manager of that group?

It's not recursive. Only someone actually logged in as the group who joined your group will be able to act in your group.

Thanks Chris. I figured it worked that way, but I wanted to check to make sure.
Thanks again.

13_Plagiarised_reports and its still there. How many reports will be required to close it at this stage?

That is no indication that they are all reports of plagiarism.

It has been reported twice and i am sure that almost 10 out of 13 are same.

How can you be sure?
If the item isn't closed then it doesn't have enough "close this" reports.

Blog posts (like this one[^]) seem to go into Mentor Resources -> Author Resources by default.

... from this: Testing QA Notifications[^]
But...when he is done, are we going to get all the "missed" notifications sent to us? If so, could they come from a specific email address, or have a keyword in the subject line, so I can filter them? I get loads of email notifications per day from here as it is, and a months worth of historic notifications (while some of them may be important) will flood my inbox so I can't see the more recent stuff!

When last time it went wrong (and Chris allegedly fixed it - blaming some cache) no missed notification were send...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

True: but that didn't fix it and I could live without an email full of a months backlog!

Unfortunately not
The issue seems to have been an async issue messing with some Webforms code. they don't play nice together. A real PITA to track down.

I got that feeling when he was talking about "code spelunking" yesterday!

I don't like it. It has one or two things on it usually, and sometimes the one thing is something that was there two days prior, also as one of only one or two things. There is no variety. I used to get something that made me come here. Now, if there's one thing and it's on a subject in which I have no interest, I just move on to another email. I don't visit here. If that's what you want, less traffic, then that's fine...I guess.
I put this here, because I can't find a link that says "Feedback"

I appreciate the feedback.

This is possibly because you have filtered your newsletter tags to just "ASP.NET". You've also opted out to include things like survey results, the list of top articles and the news/editorial. That narrows the scope down a little.
If ASP.NET isn't of interest to you then change it to something else by editing your profile[^] and on the "Newsletter" tab updating your filter.

This is because you've opted to also receive listings of updated articles. An article is posted, so it gets included, and if it's updated later then you'll also receive a notice of it being updated.
We're currently reworking the Daily Build fairly extensively. I'm going to pass this on to the newsletter team.

Chris, thanks for your response.
To be honest, I don't remember ever entering anything in that filter. I also see daily in there, and I know I didn't put that in. The Daily Build says that I've selected that instead of the weekly one, and that is not true. It was selected for me. One day I just started getting them.
As for only ASP.NET coming in...the weekly one had a lot of stuff and all of it wasn't ASP.NET. The last weekly newsletter I got was on June 9. There were all kinds of headings in there. I would read or at least glance at all of them, and those I was interested in I clicked through. Some I saved to my "favorites" so to speak. I never came in here and changed anything as you suggest. I took a screen capture of a portion of that weekly email, but I can't figure out how to include an image in this post. But it shows headings for .NET Framework, ::Workspaces, Algorithms & Recipes, Android, etc. Yes, I save emails...especially those of interest to me like these, and those from places like SQL Server Central. Code Project emails have their own sub folder under my Inbox in Outlook! I only save your code related emails, not the daily news...although I don't delete those right away, either.
The fact remains that there are very few articles in the Daily Build, and often the same ones are repeated. Today was the largest I've gotten so far...five articles! Two new ASP.NET, two updated ASP.NET and one AJAX. Plus something under Research about DB2 databases. Although that might be an ad.
It's nice to know it's being worked on. We'll see how it turns out.

It's simply enough to remove "ASP.NET" from your filters. Want me to clear it for you?
