== Suggestion for layout and task design - why didn't my topic appear on the table? ==
I have a suggestion for the way tasks are presented. I created a topic but it doesn't appear in the Village Pump table. Does it require any extra step?

1. Cannot login to RC using Google Chrome, even though cookies have been enabled for both http:// and https://
2. When logged in using Firefox, I cannot save a trivial edit of http://rosettacode.org/mw/index.php?title=Partition_function_P&action=edit§ion=13 because
(a) RC thinks an external hyperlink has been added (none was added); and (b) the reCaptcha mechanism does not work.
3. The invitation to join Slack leads to a page that says: "This link is no longer active."
== Compiler Lexical Analysis ==
I think the set of programs used to test qualifying codes should also include the set of failures such as: end of line in a string, end of file in a string, end of file in a comment, a quoted character with two or more characters specified, a empty quoted character, a number containing a non digit, a number over the maximum possible, etcetera. Both the C and Java versions have code for testing over the maximum number and neither worked correctly for me. If the maximum integer is turned into a string and the input integer's string is longer or equal and the string is greater than the maximum, it is not valid.
== IP address in "email address confirmation" email ==
The confirmation email I received says "Someone, probably you, from IP address 172.68.66.13, has registered an account". This is not the IP address I was connecting from. This is a CloudFlare IP address.
== RC's MW is dangerously out of date & And updating also helps People with unreliable/no internet connection. ==
Hi. I am trying to make Rosetta Code into a ZIM archive so people who don't have reliable internet can use the site. I think it would be a good addition to the Kiwix projects archives as well, so once it works I will try and add it there.
Its actually meant to be easy to do especially for Media Wiki sites like Rosetta code, because of the tool mwoffliner. However the version of Media Wiki is too old, so its not compatible. Ive checked and its not the tool itself, i cant find a reliable way to get the data which is low enough on traffic and covers all the pages, its not very practical.
I would argue this causes other issues because version 1.26 which RC uses is 6 years out of date.
The mwoffliner tool only requires version 1.27 or greater which is still 5 years ago, so backwards compatibility is usually not an issue.
I think this effort will benefit students learning programming in places where internet is unreliable or not available.
Just need a version update for this to work, i am happy to do the rest.
