When going to my user profile, I see 5 possible tabs: 'Profile', 'Activity', 'Account', 'Edit' and 'Subscriptions' However, when I go to the 'Account', 'Edit' or 'Subscription' tabs, the visible t...
Inspired from this post asking what steps there are between proposal and launching a community, I would like to know what steps there are between an idea and a proposal. Right now, we have at least...
Initially I thought that "Trust levels" feature is independent for each CoDidact community. But it seems that I was wrong: When I joined to Languages and Linguistics I was able to give an upvote fo...
It's not really an issue, but I'm curious why Codidact chose to use a monospace font for editing/posting while published posts use a normal font.
I've been looking around Codidact sites, wiki, repos and mission, to be able to determine if this is even a discussable or interesting topic at all. I was about to drop any ideas to ask this questi...
This question was accidentally posted in meta instead of language, and ended up being closed. Does the ability to move questions between sites currently exist, or is closing the only way to deal wi...
ArtOfCode's user profile on the Languages & Linguistics site reads, in part: What does the "☗" symbolize?
There are two points about the "Help" of "Codidact"should be mentioned: The Help should be more comprehensive. There are many features and rules for Codidact, like voting limit, commenting, taggi...
Looks like empty & meaningless edits are allowed by system. For example these Qs: https://meta.codidact.com/posts/74817/history https://meta.codidact.com/posts/74880/history Unclear whether it ...
Noticed that score (reputation) is different than I would expect. Bigger. Why is it changed? How is it calculated now? 10 for Q and 15 for A?
Right now, if a category has new/updated posts, a small dot appears next to the category name. Could this feature be extended to posts within the category as well? While it's not that hard to just ...
I keep track of new posts via RSS feeds. I would like to have a feed associated with my account that contains only tags/categories/sites I've asked it to watch. That way, I see only the posts I am ...
I noticed this issue by this question. It currently has 6 answers, yet on the home page it says that it has 0 answers.
This was already asked on Software, but it makes sense add Codidact level. If I try to provide a parent to a tag, it crashes with 500. Error Id = 6bd06f30-539d-4b88-8743-eca32a8465cd Tag to ed...
When I try to upload a file with a PNG extension, I get: If I relabel it as png (lower case) then I can upload it. So it appears to be a problem uploading images with an upper case file extension....
OK I just went through the tutorial. Two issues: At the last question creation step, one has to add keywords. But I wasn’t able to. First I tried making up my own and while that didn’t work, some...
Mathematics Codidact was launched almost two weeks ago now, but it still isn't listed on the Codidact front page or in the page footer. Could it be added?
I posted the following question on Software Development: When I go to the history, only half of the history is showing: This is also true for my answer where some bits are missing and everyth...
If you go to the post history for articles, there is no option to go back to the post. This is what the post history looks like on a regular Q&A: This is what the post history looks like on...
I'd like to subscribe to updates on specific questions that I'm interested in. Is there an RSS-feed, or some kind of a "follow" feature that I can use to subscribe to updates — new answers, mainly,...
Title is self-explanatory; on mobile (or when I just resize the browser window so it appears), the hamburger menu doesn't work on meta.codidact.com when not signed in. It works as expected on every...
After signing in the user is taken to the home page of the community from which they signed in (so, the Q&A posts tab here on Codidact Meta). This means that if I am reading a question and dec...
Most of the time, any logged-in user can post a new top-level post (question, article, maybe other types). Categories can restrict this posting access, however. For example, on the Meta blog, onl...
I'm proposing to be able to show tags in posts like writing [tag:status-bydesign] should show status-bydesign [1]. This would make referencing tags in posts easier and nicer. This is a pure...
I added a filter to exclude [tag:status-launched] and then sorted by score. I was redirected to https://meta.codidact.com/categories/10?predefined_filter=&min_score=&max_score=&min_answ...
After a moderator has deleted an answer, it looks like this to the poster of the answer: If the poster of the answer clicks on "Restore", the action is prevented, and a message is shown at the t...
If comment threads below a post are already expanded, then the input box that appears after pressing the "Start new comment thread" button is too far down the page to be visible. This makes it look...
While drafting or editing a post images do not show in the rendered post preview. Instead the alt text is displayed: (For me this now shows correctly as an image, so it looks like this is fixed....
When signing in there is a checkbox labelled "Remember me". There is no supporting information to indicate what this checkbox is for. Without it, a user may not know which of the following it means...
Some background: A discussion about deleting/preserving comments and giving user feedback popped up on Software Development meta here: How are we supposed to give feedback for poor questions if su...
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...
We currently have a limit of 5 tags per question. Should we keep this the same or would any changes be of benefit? For example: Should the limit be higher or lower? Should there be different ...
The first animated avatar someone has used here (https://cooking.codidact.com/posts/288814) points out that we don't have any rules addressing them. Let's not allow this. This falls into the same...
Can you please add a flag reason for "AI/LLM content"? I occasionally see people try to make some posts where they clearly just plug the question into ChatGPT and copy/pasted the response into the...
(I realize that this proposal might ruffle some feathers. Please read through it in full before knee-jerk voting. Also, I use "anonymous" in the proposal text for simplicity, but it would really be...
If a post has a lot of comments, the last ones are hidden behind a "Show more comments" link. For some reason, even though I know it's there, I really have to think about it each time. "I thought I...
I want to write a few canonical questions. I'll ask these questions, then also write a detailed answer. On SE there was a feature where you could write an answer to your own question before releas...
Currently answers can be sorted by Score or Activity: I'd like to be able to also sort them by Age. Would this be useful to anyone else?
Someone at Cloudflare doesn't particularly like Tor. And because Codidact is apparently hosted behind Cloudflare, that means that by extension, Codidact is at least moderately anti-Tor in practice,...
I think it would be very handy if users with edit privileges, or at the very least the OP themselves, could move posts between different categories on the same site. This would be particularly han...
Update: The reputation number in the header has been added back again for the time being, until we have found a suitable solution. This is just a quick heads up, that you are, indeed, not crazy ...
I would like to propose a place on the Codidact network where one can informally talk with other members of the network in a slower paced setting about off-topic stuff (for example movie recommenda...
If you write a long comment close to 500 characters, then edit it and go beyond 500, you get no notification that the comment is now too long. The letter counter isn't present during edit and when ...
When using the search feature in the Tags part of each category, if one searches for something that is an exact match for just one single tag, the page returned lists just that one tag. To get to t...
I suggest to enlarge the commenting box of threaded comments at least by 50% height (at least on desktop display).
I tried to delete a question without answers after a user has deleted his answer to the post but I got the following error: This post cannot be deleted because it has responses. I flagged and...
Currently, the help center has a list of user abilities, with sub-pages for each of the entries, to elaborate on them. The help center should also have an entry for "Participate", the first ability...
In places where I can see deleted comments (admin/moderator, possibly also comments I wrote myself and deleted (not sure if that's the case or not)), they should be secondary to the active comments...
Currently, when I click the "permalink" button on a post, it just sends me to the permalink URL, which is kind of unintuitive - it took me a couple seconds to realize that the page hadn't just relo...
So this has been bugging me for a while now. Recently, the tags Chinese, Cantonese, and Mandarin were changed to lowercase. When asking why on the discord, I was told that it was because "tags are ...
