Hi Folks,

When printing an EE article, code snippets are jumbled up...they look like this:

print-bad
Gustav Brock submitted a bug report on this more than two years ago:
Code blocks of article print view are unreadable

The EE Mod at the time, Modalot, said this:
Ouch. That renders the printout almost useless. I've filed this internally as a major bug.
Not being aware of Gustav's bug report, I submitted one about two months ago:
Print feature at articles does not format code snippets properly

In response to my bug report, the same Mod (Modalot) informed me that it is an old bug and is "still unresolved". Being more than 2-1/4 years old and filed as a "major bug" by a Mod who has been an EE member for more than 10 years, it seems to me that EE is either incapable of, or not interested in, fixing the bug. As a result, I'm looking to the experts here for a workaround. I want to use the workaround to "print-to-PDF" my 63 EE articles and the Steps at my 47 EE video Micro Tutorials. Although that's 110 publications, only some of them have code snippets, so while I would prefer as automated a solution as possible, having to do some manual effort on each one is fine. I'm also fine with a solution that requires other products, such as Microsoft Word, or other commercial software. Thanks for your ideas! Regards, Joe

To Whom it may concerns,

I notice that when I copy paste a script into the thread, recently it does HTML formatting and breaks all of the indentings. See the below for example.

$ListOfServers = Get-ADComputer -Filter {Enabled -eq $True -and OperatingSystem -like "*Server*"} -SearchBase "DC=Domain,DC=com"
# If you want in in a text files containing server list or names    
#$ListOfServers = Get-Content "c:\temp\serv.txt"

Foreach ($Server in $ListOfServers) {
    Invoke-Command -ComputerName $Server -ScriptBlock {
        # Get Certificate list and assign to a variable
        $Certs = Get-ChildItem "Cert:\LocalMachine\My" -Recurse

        #To get a list of all cert storage locations.
        #(Get-ChildItem -Path "Cert:" -Recurse | Where-Object {($_).GetType().Name -eq 'X509Store'}).Name        

        # Loop through each object in $Certs
        Foreach ($Cert in $Certs) {
            # If The objects property "NotAfter" is older than the current time, delete
            If ($Cert.NotAfter -lt (Get-Date)) {
                $Cert | Remove-Item -WhatIf # Remove the -WhatIf to make it run for real.
            }
        }
    }
}

Open in new window


Can anyone please suggest if this is a known issue in the new EE website or this is an issue in the Visual Studio code?

I haven't been active in a while, but I just noticed that at some point, my expert badge stopped working - was that deprecated or changed at some point? I did some searching and didn't see any commentary about it, but I also couldn't find details about getting an updated one in my profile anywhere.

Thanks for any help!

I would like to learn how to ask a question on Experts Exchange more efficiently for non English native speaker.
I'm often not sure how to describe my question and gives a wrong idea.
it would be nice if I could be more courtesy and gives a good impression
Are there any good tutorial for it?

Using the New EE interface

I have used EE for at least 15 years and love it. BUT, I also fell in love with a feature that seems gone: the ability to search my own questions so I can read the answers I got.

This was my "secret weapon" since I could read the feedback from a question I'd asked months, or even years, prior.

Does this still exist?

Hope so!

Hello experts,
I would like to set up an AutoHotkey script to swiftly manage the following EE processes executed on a regular basis:
Insert-image which requires 3 mouse click:
Embed-image-1.pngEmbed-image-2.pngAttach a file which requires 3 mouse click:
Attach-file.pngI am aware that mouse click is complicated to manage with AutoHotkey however there must be a smart and swiftly way to manage this.
If you have some feedback and advice on this, please let me know.
Thank you for your help.

What do I need to do to propose a new topic and become a verified expert here with the following products;
 Tableau Desktop, Tableau Server & Microsoft Power BI. Last year I was approached by an admin suggesting I do just that. \
Anyone know what the steps are to accomplish this.

I have a question.  EE offers a course on the CCNA track for both tests.  How up to date are they?  I am thinking of changing my focus from server to networking.

https://www.experts-exchange.com/courses/2030/Certification-CCENT-CCNA-Cisco-Certified-Entry-Network-Technician-Associate-Interconnecting-Cisco-Networking-Devices-Part-1.html

Can we verify if the course is concurrent with CCNA's current requirements?

Having a bit of trouble with the newer interface....It is probably just me but ...

How do I search within my own account for some questions I asked last year about SQL queries?

I put in RUA Volunteer2 and formerly my Handle RUAVOL2, database, PLSQL Search and got nothing with me in it.

Are their steps or an area for doing that? I have struggled to find these questions.

Hi Experts... I have been handed the task of using expert-exchange so I place questions but before there was another person that had this task.  I would like to know how I can see or get a list of all the questions in this account in order not to repeat questions that has been answered.  I don't need the contents just title in order to sort what has been done so far.

Thank u!

There doesn't appear to be a Search method for Notifications, or for selecting comments that have been marked with the new Meta Tag Such as Helpful.

If there is such a method, how do I go about it?  If not we should submit this as an enhancement, if not already..

For some reason I can't find Discussions so I am starting this as a Q for now.

Thanks for the Links to the Discussions area I have started a discussion there as well. :)

  Here is a link to that:  https://www.experts-exchange.com/discussions/222263/How-to-Find-Comments-Marked-As-Helpful-Not-Possible-Currently-So-Lets-Enhancing-the-Search-Listing-Functionality-for-New-Statuses-etc.html

Thanks Guys, I will close this Q now. :)

Can we request Expert-Exchange restrict the ability to ask anonymous questions?  The number of basic questions asked by anonymous users is staggering and is even getting to the point that it is causing EE to lose some of its credibility as an expert repository.

I haven’t contributed much to EE for a number of years. I was #1 expert (briefly) in the early days of Windows Vista when last regularly involved, so it’s been a while :o)

Everything has changed; largely for the better.

In the bad old days I think I could maintain full rights by attaining 10,000 points in a calendar month.  What are the requirements currently?

I'm trying to use Advanced Search.
It doesn't seem to work - which is very frustrating as I'm trying to make quick progress.
I ask for Questions Initiated by Fred Marshall and anything BUT shows up.

And, I don't know where to ask this question.. again.

Can you start a draft of a question in EE and pause it for a few days while waiting for further information on the problem. I was just curious as it might be a nice add on feature which I do not see at the moment. Like an email draft?
My point is that might come in handy for more complicated questions. I know I could just start a doc somewhere but sometimes keeping your eggs all in the same basket has its benefits. Since I start up a dozen docs a day if not 2 dozen.
Just a thought?

I have two questions open. I am waiting on someone outside of EE to get back with me on what we are going to do about the questions I posted. Again not an EE member. Once I get their approval and the information I need I can pursue the questions. So with that said.

What is the policy if a question is left open and you need another few weeks to months on continuing the question further? Meaning me posting more content for clarity and explaining with examples the question further?

Is the policy to close the question, leave it open (like put it on PAUSE) or just delete it all together? What do you guys EE prefer?
