When i see folks like Richard Deeming engaging/teaching/clarifying through careful comments on a QA question like this: [^] ...
i want to show appreciation.

just the ability to select an icon tag from a dropdown with contents of only a few choices like upvote/downvote/laugh would work for me. usual points added/subtracted for up/down,

This has frustrated me several times today when I wished to give code a rating. Nowhere can I find how to get my darned email confirmed - I've trawled my settings and my valid email is there. So please please please can someone make this dead easy for me? How do I get this email confirmed? Thank you.

Thanks very much for your message. I have sent you an email confirmation. Please let me know if you receive it OK.
Thanks,

Your email didn't hit junk or inbox or anything. However, I found my original 2011 email from code project and the confirm link worked in that.
So I appreciate your help regardless, thank you for coming back to me.

I want to publish my GitHub project here, I import it through this tutorial:
Your GitHub Project on CodeProject[^]
I clicked on "Next Step:preview", but i got a message:
"This repository doesn't appear to have a Readme to import."
But my repo does have a readme file README.md
Is the readme file name case-sensitive?
|
|

Can you post a link to your GitHub repo so we can take a look?
Also: we use the GitHub Nuget package to manage the README so whatever GitHub thinks is a README is what's returned to us. We don't query anything by name directly so there are no case issues.

Thanks, I'll be deploying an update that will give us more guidance on why your repo isn't being pulled.
However. Your repo's README is very light on an explanation of what it is, and is mainly a list of links to other places. As such it's not a great fit for CodeProject since it's more of just an ad, not a self-contained article that's hosted as a GitHub Project.
If you wish to post your code on CodeProject that would be awesome, but I would strongly recommend you post something like https://featbit.medium.com/introducing-featbit-e0cef61572a as the content, rather than just the current README.

Thank you. I will take time to make my readme better

As reported here[^], trying to import a GitHub project with a valid README.md file returns an error:

Thanks mate. Digging in now.

I don't use Code Project any longer and I would like to delete my account.
Thank you.

You can do that yourself: go to Your Settings[^], select the "Privacy" tab, and choose between "Close my account" and "Forget me Forever".

The "protector" badge seems to have gained a white background, which makes it look odd when a message is expanded.

Can be the same problem why the "Founder" Bob of Chris looks weird too?
I think it is wider or shorter than it should.

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.

I haven't lost my mind. The title makes sense when you look at the C# forum - there are two orphaned answers at the top of the page. Tested in Edge and Chrome (latest versions). Web 02, and Web 01 servers.

An orphaned post. This is a figment of your imagination because this is impossible. The code said so.
(I'll dig in and fix it)

IIRC there was a time when we could recover the text that was removed in this way.

The test is still there and accessible by Admins, protectors or those who closed it. That may be what you're referring to?
cheers

Probably, but I used to have that permission, but don't any more. I cannot recall when it changed, but quite some time ago.
|
|

|

Yes I see the same thing. And reported it (now deleted.)
I noted that the 'orphan' part comes about because
1. Long time users so they didn't accidently post there
2. Neither answer reflects the parent
3. The trace line (or whatever it is) when you hover over the message goes off the top of the forum and not to the message they are under.
