Articles in the Wrong Section
-
Just realized that most (all?) of my articles are in the wrong section (e.g. should be Desktop Programming / Windows Forms, but instead is Web Development / HTML). This is most definitely my fault, but how do I fix it? Can I move an article to a new section, or that task in the domain of someone with admin rights? Thanks, Graham

I believe that articles are now categorized based solely on their tags. This is a very recent change and may still be in flux. There is no longer a way to explicitly categorize an article yourself. All you can do is play with your tags until your article ends up in the category that you think appropriate.

If you let me know what section you would like each to appear in, I will do my best to make it happen.

Thanks, but as per Greg's suggestion, I was trying first to fix this myself. I moved most of my articles to "Desktop Programming", which is an improvement. But I think a better location is "Desktop Programming / Windows Forms", but I don't know what tag(s) will get it to that new location. I expected to find some tag referring to WinForms under Technology, but no luck. Currently the tags are: C#, .NET, Intermediate, controls, Dev, desktop. As for my article "A Tale of Two Timers", I'm not sure where it should go. It's about Windows internals, and the programming in the article is a side issue. Currently it's in the section "Time", which you cannot get to using the articles menu. Is that a different bug? Thanks, Graham

How do I get my article into the section "Desktop Programming / Windows Forms"? I checked other articles already there, and the key tag seems to be "WinForms". Could not find the tag (should it be under "Technology")? I added it manually, but my article is still only in the section "Desktop Programming". Any suggestions? Graham

Hi Graham, I added a WinForms tag to your articles and that put them in the desired section. As for your Time article, I gave it a C# tag that put it into the C# category (the language topic is meant to be a catch all if all else fails).

Alas, the articles with the WinForms tag are still in the section "Desktop Programming". If I select Articles -> Browse Topic -> Desktop Programming, the articles are all there. Also each article is noted as being in "Articles / Desktop Programming". Regarding the Tale of Two Timers article, would it not make sense to have OS specific sections (e.g. Windows 7, Windows 10, MacOS, etc)? Some articles pertain to the OS and are language independent. Thanks Graham

Interesting. The articles should be correct now. I will definitely take your OS specific section recommendation to the team. We will constantly be re-assessing and updating sections.

They are correct now, and I used your set of tags to update two of my Tips/Tricks articles. All is good now. Many thanks for your help! Graham
