@OwenDavies is having problems with the format of his blog snippets since some time ago.
Last feed: Articles: Create Azure AKS Cluster with Windows Server Containers Preview[^]
@Sean-Ewington could you have some words with him and maybe help him improve the process? (and maybe check his other 19 blog entries, just in case?)
Thanks in advance

I can certainly message him and try.
It is a little discouraging though. With a couple of exceptions, I find people sharing their blog don't care about much. They don't care about formatting their entries, or which ones make it, or the duplicates that show up, or when I email them, or when I delete their entries. It's like they fill in their information, and leave forever.
Thanks,

I don't really like the blog feed, never have.
Same links in a blog feed and an article, the article is nuked, the blog is allowed to stay.
Most Bloggers don't give a crap, they start feeding and some don't even come back. They continue blogging, the site pull the entries and you (CP Staff) correct them. They don't invest any time / efford or show interest in doing it right and still get the reward of many, many, many more readers as in their standard site.
That's why I would say that there should be a "if you don't follow the format / standards, you get a warning, then a monition, and if still no reaction, the feed is cancelled".

The one exception I could think of actually kept putting back in their feed every single day. I deleted their feed four or five times. They really wanted their blog entries on the site bad.

One gets the feeling that quite a few people believe that having the words, "as published on CodeProject", on their CV is worth a lot. Quantity rather than quality seems to be their watchword. There are, of course, notable exceptions,

Can't be done definitivelly? Staff check out feed in the profile or something like that?

And that's the problem... once here, they don't care anymore

Currently no. If deleting the feed doesn't work, account de-activation is the last tool.

When I clicked the "Update your article" link I got the error message:
Article Submission Wizard
An error occurred while loading the article. Please refresh the page to retry.

Is this still a problem currently?

It fixed. Thank you very much.

Where can I see the article drafts I have manually saved? Cannot find a 2-days job 
?

Put the cursor over your account name in the upper right corner of the page, and click on 'My Articles'. There you will have the list of all your articles, whether published or not. Unfinished articles get a red subtitle line stating they are still drafts.

I already did. The latest version is of 28 Jan., although I was working on this article in on last Friday and yesterday.

You will have to wait for a system admin to have a look at your issue, then.

You already have by posting here on the forum. Keep in mind that site admins are based in Toronto, so it shouldn't be very long now until they check in.

Excellent. You should be able to edit it. Just in case, I would save a local copy for yourself as well.

I'm able to edit it, but starting from the version of 28.01. There is a couple of days work lost.
|

|
|

It wasn't autosaved since 28.01, neither was it saved when I pressed "Save draft". That means, I don't see the versions that were supposed to be saved.

Or this?
How to code without thinking?[^]
Under the revisions tab, check "show auto-saved drafts" and you can start going through and seeing if those are more complete.
