We've been thrown onto an extortion blacklist we're still trying to get ourselves off. Could be your company is simply blocking rather than moving to a spam directory.
Are you still not getting the emails?

Chris,
I am not gettign them yet. Then again my company does use blacklist filters provided by third parties, so that is probably the issue.
Thanks!

THere used to be a lot of traffic on the usual groups that has died and IMO there is a big hole here that can be filled by CP.
Want to increase membership?
Then create a group for drivers and get people on to CP.
I guess you will probably ignore this post like you did the last one, it is your loss though.
==============================
Nothing to say.

Not even a please.
The Hardware and Devices[^] forum should cover what you need, at least until the level of posts reaches a point where a dedicated forum is justified.

Why should I say 'please'? I am offering the benefit of 12 years of experience in the kernel in a dedicated forum to CodeProject users. You should be saying 'please' to me.
Hardware and devices is soo uch about buying hardware, not about programming in the kernel.
The C / C++ forum picks up most driver questions, though in fact it doesnt fit there well either, hence suggesting a seperate one.
You might get traffic, there used to be a lot on the groups, if they find out that CP is offering a dedicated forum.
==============================
Nothing to say.

If you look on the home page, in the "Articles needing approval" section, you'll see an article with just a single dash as the title. The link points to here[^], but if you click it the page never loads (on IE8 anyway).

Time zone is correctly set to GMT+1, but that's an hour in the future...
Is the server running on the time zone indicated?

You had the "Are you currently in Daylight Saving Time?" checkbox checked. I've unchecked it.

Oh thanks. Can't the server find out the "Daylight Saving Time" automatically?
|
|

Daylight Saving time is a state-by-state and year-by-year thing and we simply don't have accurate data at hand to keep track of it based on members' locations. We can do some client-side stuff, though, so I'll add a note to do some magic and auto-update members' timezones based on that.

In the bottom of the forums, we have a page navigater which looks like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Next >>
Could we just have that in the top of the forum too? It's a small pain to scroll to the bottom of the page to go to the next page. Especially when you're working on your mini laptop.

There are First Prev Next links at the top, just above the first message on the right.

Yes I saw them... since we already have used that space it would be great to have the pages too. Not a big issue though

Maybe you could do this:
[First] [Prev] [...] [Next]
When [...] is clicked, it could expand to show the numbers:
[Prev] [1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9] [Next]
Maybe you don't persist it. That way, when a postback occurs, the user would revert back to the main view:
[First] [Prev] [...] [Next]
That would prevent you from having to remember that setting on a per-user case and having to provide a mechanism to collapse the numbers.
Probably too much work for very little benefit though. So, uh, my real suggestion is to change the top [Prev] and [Next] to match the bottom [« Prev] and [Next »].
While you're at it, maybe you should change [First] to [α First α].

When I get reply emails, they seem to have started ending in:
[SITE_NAME]
[SITE_URL]
immediately above the line:
Note: This message has been sent from an unattended email box.
It seems to happen to users who do have a link set in the profile page, and not those who don't.

Yes, my bad. We have two systems for replacing tokens and the wrong one was accidentally used after an update of email templates. I'll be fixing these at lunchtime today.

I always thought having the liquid lunch first was the prerequisite to being creative in the afternoon.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

Recently I saw couple of duplicate answers(When you post an answer in Q/A section, there you could see double entry rarely). Sample one[^]. Also I saw others(SAKryukov, Uma Shankar Patel,..,). Isn't possible to restrict that? I think you can't post duplicate entry on forums(I saw message like "Item already posted there") when you try to do that.

I've had it happen to me a few times too - I suspect in my case it was "mouse bounce" and two "Post Message" clicks happening in very quick sucession (I did have a fault with a mouse button not holding cleanly).
