Looks like it's a countdown to an online conference, and it doesn't seem to be overlaying anything.

It does .. but that's the home page and it looks ... unprofessional. If you see what I mean.

That's as may be, but it's so spiffy that it must have been done deliberately.

Exactly. Had the same thought.

Might have been better if it was on some section on the right then it prolly wouldn't push down on things as it does now.

It's fixed now^*, but if the image is in your browser cache you'll need CTRL+F5 to load the new version of the image.

In the end, the money to run this platform has to come from somewhere. For me the flashing ad is no problem, usually I don't stay on the 'home' that long.

It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

Bug: Submit an Article not working

13-Sep-20 9:28

Nor do I except for moderation - but it's a "landing site" for newbies so it needs to look "right" or the whole site comes over as "a bit crap". You've probably done it yourself - arrive at a site and decide immediately that there will be nothing you want there because it looks like it was assembled by a blind two year old.

The link was original link was incorrect
/Messages/NNNN/ will give you a list of messages for Member NNNN
/Messages/NNNN/<message title="" slug=""> will go to Message NNNN

It looks like OG truncated a part of the URL.

Replying to the wrong post?

I suppose you wanted to answer me in the thread below. (You might move the messages if you want, so we don't hijack this thread

Matthew Dennis wrote:

The point is... no, this is not correct.

Check with the link I used myself in the last or second last message. I am pointing to my own message, but The /Messages/NNNN gives still get a list from messages written by other people.

Weird permalink

in the S&A two different users (@OriginalGriff and @Sandeep-Mewara) have reported the same user / message but with different styles.
OriginalGriff in Troll in the lounge? (Member 14935529)[^]
using the typical

HTML

<a href="https://www.codeproject.com/Messages/5748850/">Theb Lounge</a>[<a href="https://www.codeproject.com/Messages/5748850/" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>]

And Sandeep in Spammer in Lounge (Member 14935529, Lounge message)[^]
has used the markup version

[Latest Messages](https://www.codeproject.com/Messages/5748850/)

So I suppose both have used the "get permalink" in the same message. The weird thing is, that link brings you to a list of messages written by different users where some of the messages are even newer as the "permalinked" message (meaning, they were not even written yet, by the time that reported message was posted or reported)

I think this shouldn't happen.

To confirm that, the link in my message opens a valid CP URL:

https://www.codeproject.com/Messages/5748850/

Which opens the right page ID, but with the wrong info:

This is probably because once the message was closed I deleted it from the lounge, so the message finder can't any more!

I thought not even we (Protectors) can delete something at DB level, that only would be "not visible" for the rest.

I have had a lot of "message deleted" corpses that had to be cleaned up with the big Cahoona hammer

I don't think we have any direct access to the DB, but I don't know exactly what the Hamsters do when we tell them to delete: they might move it to an "archive" table, or just mark it as deleted so it doesn't come up in "regular SELECT" operations. Or ... the row might just go in the bit bucket.

But ... if the message number specified doesn't exist in the "active" list, it seem to be returning recent messages instead of a "not found" message.

Nelek11-Sep-20 1:56

Nope... the problem is the link, literally.

A permalink usually contains domain/forum/msg=ID

i.e. my OP in this thread: https://www.codeproject.com/suggestions.aspx?msg=5748869#xx5748869xx
Bugs and Suggestions[^]

Your Links (both of you) have the link as domain/Messages/id
as it would be the "domain/Members/nickname" Link vs. the "domain/Membership/View.aspx?mid=Number"

If I try the same with my active and visible Thread-OP (meaning: https://www.codeproject.com/Messages/5748913) it happens exactly the same.
Latest Messages[^]
it gets to a of recent messages but from the whole site.

So I suppose that the parsing between the "easy" and the "complete" URL-Types is still needing a tiny push to work properly.

What I don't know... where did you get that type of link for the message? I get always the classic type.
