Cannot delete technical blog article
-
Hi there, After several years working perfectly, this last year CodeProject keeps consuming articles by mistake from my blog (they are not marked to be consumed). In fact, the are not related at all to technology, and sometimes they are not in english. I have tried to delete them manually with no success. The deletion process goes well, and it says that the article was successfully deleted, but it's still there. What can I do to delete them permanently, and to avoid wrong consumptions in the future? Thanks !

Can you please point me to a blog that was consumed, and was not meant to be consumed?

Sure, The blog itself should be consumed, that's working fine. But only certain articles are marked to be pulled by CodeProject, and it's pulling others without the mark. For example this one shouldn´t have been pulled: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/483477/Deplusradares-2cplusyplusotrosplussinsentidos This has been working great for years. Only those articles I marked with the "CodeProject" tag were being pulled. But now it sometimes fails... Besides that, I cannot manually delete those articles. The one above, for example. Thanks !!

I've run into the same issue, and have even had a couple of site members (rightly) downvoting the incoming non-programming articles because, well, they don't have anything to do with code. :) An example of one that came in from my blog: http://theycallmemrjames.blogspot.ca/2011/01/got-my-phonesamsung-focus.html[^] Just a note, too. A whole bunch of these came in all at once after a site update some time ago. Most of the posts were 6+ months old and just appeared one day.

Yeah, it's really annoying, as I don´t like to see my posts that have nothing to do with programming (they even are written in non-english) published here. People complain about them, downvote them, and report them as if I was intentionally publishing it. I totally understand it, but don't like it. The worst part is that I cannot even delete them. The systems says "article successfully deleted", but it's still there... :( ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated !!!!

Hi Inaki Ayucar, I sent you an email on Friday, but I'm starting to think it got lost in the ether. There's some blogspot issues I've been testing with another user. Would you be willing to try something out? Please fire me an email at sean[at]codeproject.com and we can get this sorted.
Thanks, Sean Ewington The Code Project
