How do we encourage updates instead of additions?

Giving less reputation for posting and more for editing? At the end it is what 98% of those "prolific" posters want.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

HASSI- Home Automation, Safety And Security With IoT Using Arduino[^]

Please see the revisions. I have fixed the image links at least 5 times. When I save the version, the images are shown. Once I publish, they are gone.

Though I have faced this problem with many articles, this one is just too much to keep patience Frown | :(

Unfortunately you really do need to be careful with images and follow what the submission wizard says. You have images referenced by full paths (eg http://www.codeproject.com/KB/Articles/1115184/image37.png). Please just reference by the image filename, not path (eg image7.png).

We need the ability to move images around during the submission process. The wizard knows about these moves and adjusts the references. If you give it a full path then it will respect that, but it will then probably show broken images.

I've fixed it. Smile | :)

cheers

Missing Images in preview mode

8-Aug-16 15:03

In early revisions, the images were as they appear in the composing mode. I did not change path. After I published, they started to disappear. So I put the absolute path. Then I found out exact problem. Big Grin | :-D

I am trying to finish an article I started a while ago. All images appear in edit mode but when I use the preview button all my images are missing. Only the text URL shows up.

Here is the article:
1089366/WPF-MVVM-Print-or-Create-an-Image-of-your-Applicat

Is there something I am doing wrong?

image not showing about half the time in my article

It's not you, it's us. Please shoot me an email with the URL when you are ready to submit with the images and I will make sure they are all attached when it is pushed live.

Thanks,

My overview image on my article (link looks like this -- http://www.codeproject.com/KB/boards-embedded-devices/1116192/drawpass2.png[^]) : Ending the Era of Weak Passwords: Never Type A Password Again (Never Memorize A Password Again)[^] only loads about half the time.
Can someone help?

Without the overview image this article won't be as easily understood.
I really appreciate any help you can offer.

And there seems to be another missing one too:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/boards-embedded-devices/1116192/proMicro.jpg[^]

Loads less often. Is there something goin on or just general connectivity issue?
thanks,

I think maybe Sean Ewington was working on this. I saw a note that the article was locked for editing.
If so, much thanks.

This happened to someone else yesterday. My guess is the system prioritizes certain tags. You'd have to take off that C# tag

In that case, I miss the largest codeproject reader community Frown | :(

I would settle for non IoT inclusion and remove the tag later while updating the article. Smile | :)

Even there is no copyright issue - the article should not pass moderation. There is at least the format (CP guidelines) issue...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.
