https://meta.codidact.com/posts/281235 - A post about easter eggs that promises to build one for April 1st of next year. Is this site interested in gamification or a serious Q&A Platform? Is th...
Unfortunately, we didn't have the time to build an April fools easter egg this year. We'll build one next year, for sure! Therefore, for your own safety: DO NOT try to enter any secret code on ...
I have published this post in Unix and Linux StackExchange. I want to post it here as well (in Software Development Codidact), because it didn't get answers on U&L SE. I cannot delete my post...
Three of Codidact's early communities did large-scale imports of content from Stack Exchange, and at the request of some community members, we added an icon to those questions on question lists. O...
I can't post a comment to this answer. I tried to paste the markdown of this comment here as a quote or inside <pre> tags but if I publish this bug report then I get a "Sorry you have been b...
dir=rtl and inline HTML CSS styling, which I need to properly format my following post on Software Development Codidact, aren't working; The source code preview of the post doesn't correctly match...
Load codidact: Open menu: Grow window, menu opener disappears, but menu persists:
When the ad on the sidebar that says "could you answer this question?" is clicked on, it takes you to the question, but the ad for that question can still be there. The ad for the question being...
In this post history, a very long link greatly overflows the width of the diff box. You can see there is a tail peeking out from the right side, and a horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of the p...
When editing an answer, there's sometimes reason to look at the question again (I just had such a case). Therefore I think it would be a good idea if the question would be shown on the page where y...
I just noticed this in EE, but the same symptom appears on other sites too: Note how the user pictures in the right column are larger than the others. On other sites this is more random, so I t...
One just signed up (in Languages & Linguistics) and received a notification to take an initial "tour to find out how this site works". A friendly Codidactyl invites one to create a question but...
I don't know how Codidact is funded...perhaps our founders are millionaires? If they are, can they afford to manufacture free clothing (like T shirts) that advertises like Codidact.com? Then mail t...
Has anyone like our founders thought of advertising Codidact.com on your vehicle, free of charge and voluntarily? Like on the side and on the back? I don't expect Codidact to pay you for this, but...
I cannot paste some HTML-CSS-PHP code which I have tried and would like to ask a question about in CoDidact Software Development. When I publish my question I just get redirected, time and again t...
When I add a comment, the character count is displayed below the text box: However, when I edit it, there is no character count visible: It still seems to check for the character limit(500 ch...
S.E. has wrongfully deleted questions and/or suspended people for posting pictures with brand names, because by default they think all brand names are advertising and spam. I confirm I don't work f...
Ad templates (which community ads use) don't give an image for Article type posts. For example, for this promoted post, the image url that is used in the sidebar is https://languages.codidact.com/...
Why did we narrow ourselves down to Electrical Engineering? Why didn't we launch a Engineering community like S.E. that's broader? I trust it's self explanatory that Electrical Engineering is a str...
To my pleasant surprise, I saw an ad for Codidact on English S.E.! Why don't we post similar ads on S.E.? !
Let's popularize Codidact! We ought advertise at https://old.reddit.com/r/blogger/ https://old.reddit.com/r/blogs/ https://old.reddit.com/r/DotCom/ https://old.reddit.com/r/GuestPost/ https:...
I'm not referring to accepting just one answer like on Stack Exchange because your question can receive > 1 answer and each answer solves your question synergistically. No one answer solves your...
Is it possible to accept an answer? How can I do that?
Recently, I saw this community ad: The actual title is 'Caution' and 'cautious' with ʃ or ʒ? The IPA characters seem to be unknown to whatever is rendering the ad, and so they were replaced by q...
Each category header includes an "Edits" link, which is a link to a list of pending suggested edits in the current category. But nothing alerts people with the ability to approve those edits that ...
After hitting the "Cancel" button when writing or editing a post, a prompt shows up that says Any unsaved changes will be lost. Are you sure? [Okay] [Cancel] Hitting [Okay] will kick you out...
When trying to nominate this post for promotion, it didn't work. Clicking the nomination button did nothing. Checking the console, I believe this is likely a client script error rather than a serv...
Isn't the arrow a the upper right corner linking all other communities as a drop down menu superfluous, when we can just scroll down where all the other communities are listed? At least, please ad...
I'm referring to posts for logging interest like https://meta.codidact.com/posts/276997#answer-276997 and https://meta.codidact.com/posts/280161#answer-280161. Once your comment has been added to ...
Just now, I was notified that a post was added to one of my questions and coincidentally, the person adding that post was me. Nevertheless, I was notified about that event which seems a bit redunda...
In the mod tools, we can change the close reasons. This is helpful when a community possibly needs more or less than normal. However, there isn't a way to change the flags, which means that we mig...
The Codidact keyboard shortcuts list (triggered when ? is pressed) looks like this: I wanted to close it, but pressing the same key again didn't work, and it wasn't specified in the popup. I rea...
On Codidact, lots of things can be customized for individual communities. Generally these changes need to be made by admins, but we'll make them on request. But what are all these things? What c...
Is it acceptable if I "transfer" my questions and answers from StackOverflow and other SE sites to their respective sites on Codidact? I do not want to go back to SE sites, never more in my life, ...
Currently I still see comments that I deleted, under a post. But I don't need to.
I am noticing an event which I don't know if would be considered a bug. Do the following: Open notification tab. (when you have one or more unread notification) Click on any notification. The ...
If one searches / filters result by a tag (by clicking on one of them) the all items in a list have a badge that indicates current category instead of correct one. For example, when I click on mvv...
Here are five reasons for coloring text. If you're quoting a long text that already uses bolds and italics, then all formatting tools have been exhausted. You can't highlight something. B...
Apology if the issue is my Internet connection. Does MathJAX render more sluggishly here than on Stack Ex for anyone else?
I am trying to fix my Fairphone 3, and have run into a problem. I'd like to ask on CoDidact, but I don't know which community is appropriate. Electrical Engineering would seem the logical place, h...
Basically, I'd ideally want something like "asked 3 days ago by A, last activity 1 day ago by B". Having just the person without the question creation date would be significantly less useful but...
What do I input in search for Site Proposals, to pretermit all questions tagged [status-declined]? I tried -[status-declined] but this didn't work.
We have some software (but not software-development) proposals: "Superuser-like" community for software applications office suites Linux Are these three separate, distinct commu...
Whenever I post a question it takes a long time for someone to answer it. I do not know if someone is atleast active in the community or not. I know this community is to help each other's problems ...
I am trying to run QPixel on my local computer. I tried all instruction from readme.md, but unfortunately I got some errors. where can i ask about it? On this meta or Software Development or must o...
If a question already has 10 answers, less chance I can add anything new. Some people may like to focus on unanswered questions. Let's distinguish between what's relevant and irrelevant with text ...
S.E. provides links to comments. Can Codidact do same please?
Please see point 1 below. The top of S.E. is much sprucer — just the logo. But Codidact has two additional rows — at least merge these rows? Moshi retorted #1 The first row is categories, which...
Please see point 5 below. Both Codidact and S.E. waste that white space. Why not put the posted date box "posted 3 months ago" in that white space?
Please see point 2 below. If we align the "last activity" right, our eyes won't have to zigzag. We just read down the same column. Zerotime asked me to separate my six bullet points. I know "Cod...
