I still get this "no pw" error all the time, basically I am shown as logged in (even if I change topics), but if I try to write a reply I have to log out and log in again... happens apparently after shut downs, and I think after I close firefox as well. I wouldn't care if that error didn't appear AFTER the text I have just written disappears into the void.

Is Strikethrough working?
How about after editing...Strikethrough
Strikethrough two words?

After Superscript?
There is something wrong with the tags

I like the fact that a post can get 'deleted' when it is reported.
However, there seems to be an oddity. If a user creates a post, in the wrong section for example, and others reply and then someone reports the fact that it is in the wrong section, the head of the thread may be removed but the replies remain visible.
Would it not be prudent to remove all posts in a thread if the head is removed?

I have an idea. Why don't we improve the tutorial? I'm not suggesting that twicker should do it. There are plenty of people writing articles so I bet there would be someone willing to write a tutorial too. There are several things that could be in it to prevent some common problems.
Such as what are IDEs, compilers (and why you shouldn't use Dev C++), why does the console close when I press enter, initializer lists," how to deal with multiple files, something more in "C++ Standard Library" (vectors and strings at least), also maybe a bit more on references and function pointers, as there is very little about them, etc.
Many of these topics are already covered in articles, but adding them to the tutorial would make them more accessible to beginners.

The tutorial is the first result when searching for "C++" on google, the home page is second. Extending it and adding new chapters would be great, and why not get the community involved in the project and let people send their contributions (they can be added after being reviewed).
I support hamsterman's idea wholeheartedly. I'd also support getting the Reference section ready for C++0x.

IMO All we need is the advanced article section back.
There anyone could write a tutorial ( an it would get published only after review )
twicker didn't give any info on that since http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/lounge/38177/2/#msg205282

I would gladly do the section for overloading the Insertion\Extraction stream operators for classes as this is the ONLY thing that this site didn't have for me when I went looking for it. So +1 hamsterman, I'm in.
When whoever does the "Why does my console close when I press enter" please mention how different IDE's run your code. For example Code::Blocks, and I believe MS VS (someone please confirm\dispute?), runs your app in a shell if, and ONLY if, it is executed from within the IDE so you can see the output without coding a method of doing so. It would be great if we could compile a list to cover the top 5 IDE's.
I also think that the section on File I\O needs to be expanded to discuss how this interacts with the OS. Maybe just for Windows Mac and *Nix, that should be 99% of the readers that come here I think. Also again how different IDE's change the way your code runs, wxDev-C++ modifies your execution path when your code is run from within the IDE so that it is more like it would be when you execute the app outside of it. Code::Blocks, on Windows at least, DOES NOT do this so your data files need to be in the same directory as your source code not the executable. ISLT that drove me nuts when I first started out; and just google'ing it doesn't give you a straight answer in the first page.
TL;DR: I agree with hamsterman the turorial here is the best one on the web but it still feels like it's only 80% done. I would gladley donate my weekends to finish it.

I am certain that I responded to this thread:
http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/general/41635/
but on review I see that I had no response there.
So I responded again, in nearly the same way.
Is this some sort of glitch?
Or did someone delete my post for some unknown reason?
Or am I insane?

I believe we can only delete posts of people with very few posts.. unless twicker hates you...
It sometimes happens to me, that I need to press "submit" twice, so maybe same happened to you and you refreshed/closed the page without pressing it again?
And, of course, there is always that other option..
