Pending Status for new Articles
-
I just published an article on custom-drawing a Button control from scratch in Windows Forms, and after I published it, I found a link on this website that said that some articles are still in Pending status for a whole year due to being understaffed. Is that still the case? I'm kind of scared right now. I don't want to wait a whole year! :omg: How long do new articles usually take to get approved these days?

Don't be, it'll take just few months :) Just kidding! The moderation is now done by the community so it'll take a short time to get responses and the article to be approved or rejected. I had a look at it and as far as I can see there was no download included. I believe that adding a downloadable project would greatly help the article to be published.

Thanks for replying! :) I did upload files and a downloadable project though. I uploaded the whole C# solution inside a zip file. I will re-upload the files though and see if that fixes it.

Sorry about that :) Thanks for the link. And I sure am glad it doesn't take that long anymore! lol

After you have uploaded the ZIP, remember to use the "include selected files into the article" link just above the uploaded file list. Otherwise the zip doesn't become visible.
Ohhhhh! Thank you @Mika, I didn't even see that option there. :-)
