At the top of the complete list of posts for a user (accessible through the user's profile) there are two sort buttons, "Score" and "Age". When sorting by "score" is selected, the "Score" button h...
I realized that the dashboard isn't particularly easy to find for new people, which is a shame since it's pretty useful. (It shows which communities have new activity at a glance, handy for those i...
When a post has more than five comments, the comments past the fifth are hidden until you click 'Show more comments'. However, when if you don't click on it and you add a comment, it will display...
Strikethrough text doesn't appear to work using Markdown notation: This is supposed to have strikethrough text And it works in the preview, but not in the actual post. Now using the <strike&g...
On another codidact website someone suggested an edit to one of my posts. When I was browsing meta.codidact, I clicked the link to the suggested edit. It lead to https://meta.codidact.com/posts/sug...
I noticed the new side switcher and really like this feature. Oftentimes, I browse Codidact and read up on posts while I'm on the go and naturally I would like to switch sites as easily as with the...
Since the abilities update, I'm getting double notifications for new answers to my questions. For example, both of the following notifications have the same URL, https://cooking.codidact.com/quest...
On mobile (haven't tested on PC yet but did test on desktop mode), the community ad is unclickable; I expected it to link me to the promoted post.
The community ad has the wrong logo, see the screens hot (the post is from Languages & Linguistics, but the logo shows Meta) After testing a couple times, it seems to be using the logo of th...
Posting a Meta Post about...not seeing Meta Posts! I went to my usual start-of-the-day spot: meta.codidact.com/dashboard All categories for all communities showed up as normal, except Meta: Q&...
I've noticed this in several cases in the last day or so. The activity shown in the question list does not match the actual activity. Here is one example activity list entry: The actual questi...
It appears that new answers are no longer being reported as new activity on the question list and bumping questions. Here's an annotated screenshot: https://meta.codidact.com/posts/280005 shows...
Exactly the title; with the new design changes, there are no sign in buttons when using Codidact in the mobile view. There isn't a button in the hamburger menu either:
If you go to any post on the Q&A category here on Meta while not signed in, it gives you a 404 page. E.g. this post, when I'm signed out, gives this I'm able to view it perfectly fine when I...
It seems like community dropdown has no restriction on a height (or it is too big) so it doesn't look fine on displays with small sizes: It would be great if this list couldn't occupy more than ...
I was looking for a way to see what communities I have posted in, or am a "member" of, and I didn't find it. It would be really helpful to have a dropdown like SE does, where I can click a button ...
Right now the sites are all hidden away down at the bottom of the site, and the questions are forced to be 50 per page. I would like a way to swap between sites I am logged in on more easily.
I recently had one of my suggested edits approved. However, the edit comment doesn't appear on the post history for that post. Other examples of the bug are this suggestion and this suggestion; nei...
It seems that there is no longer a button to suggest edits on article-type posts (e.g. posts in Resources of Languages & Linguistics, or Sandbox of Code Golf.) For example, this post is missin...
The category questions list page (including each site's front page) uses the shorter URL paths, such as /q/1234, to link to posts (usually questions, but sometimes articles). However, the category ...
So, I featured a link on Languages & Linguistics. However, I made it appear globally by accident (I expected it to be local, and it didn't prompt me whether I wanted it to be local or not so I ...
I was just looking at one answer of mine, and I noticed a "tools" button with a spanner next to it. When I tried clicking it, however, nothing seems to happen. I've looked through the abilities pag...
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...
Basically, the title. See the table of contents on https://meta.codidact.com/questions/278967.
In the Help center article Answer scoring and ordering there is an image with a broken URL, so it does not render: As you see, the image linked with https://meta.codidact.com/assets/scoring_...
Update You can only close a question when you have 250 rep. Hence, the user experience needs to be improved. My suggestion: hide close button until user has 250 rep. Original question I tried to...
The recent database update included a reputation recalculation. Reputation doesn't mean as much as it used to (it doesn't govern abilities any more), but it's still present and visible. In the re...
When attempting to look at my own flags by clicking the link under "Flags" on my profile, it gives a 500 server error.
I just noticed something strange. In the Q&A category of Scientific Speculation, I see this list entry: However, the question actually does have an answer. See https://scientific-speculati...
The question What good are herbivores in an animal army? currently shows up- and down-votes as +0/-0, and both vote counts have tooltips saying "0.5" when I hover over them in the question. (I don'...
Since tables are now available (hooray!), it can be helpful to users to include a reference in the format buttons of the post. So from the current set of icons: We can add another one like ...
I'm getting this error pop up when I try to close vote a question.
Currently votes for blog posts are counted in total but there are no rows for this type in additional, expanded grid ("on Question", "on Answer") This may confuse new users since usually one exp...
I recently posted a question on Software Development, How can I write an egrep (grep -E) regexp that matches lines containing two stanzas in arbitrary order? (Internet Archive copy). (Addendum: it'...
I identified a possible Markdown rendering error. In this post, I hyperlinked the last few words. This renders correctly in the preview but not in the actual post. I’ve tested in a few browsers wi...
In the last day or so, the preview when writing a post keeps jumping up and down. Even just typing a few characters causes this over the next few seconds. I think I see what's going on. Whenever...
Can we have the ability to create tables? Right now, according to this answer tables are not on the list of things allowed in posts, which is a shame because I can see many uses for them, such as t...
A sort of a solution to this problem, but would also apply to posts such as moderator elections, one-off proposals (though status-complete also works), and just generally posts which at some point ...
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...
On answers, the "last activity" notice tells the time when the answer was edited and the user who edited it. For example, https://meta.codidact.com/posts/278908/history correctly states who edited ...
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...
In the post history, the "by..." and edit reason are misaligned from the "Post edited" (more obvious when there is an edit reason) E.g. https://meta.codidact.com/posts/278406/history
Basically, the title. Tables, such as this example table One Two Three Four Five Six Seven Eight Nine Image for posterity Look... less than appealing withou...
If a code block has longer lines than will fit within the width of the code block, there is no indication that this is the case, nor any obvious way to scroll horizontally. For an example, see dig ...
With this code: <tr> <th>Downvotes</th> <th>Minimum upvotes to stay above 40%</th> </tr> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>...
Searching for why on https://judaism.codidact.com/posts/search gives a 500 server error 28844d1b-bbf5-43e3-b93a-6c001af0767e.
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...
From https://codidact.com/ there is a link "communities", leading to https://codidact.com/community-assets/. Clicking on it gives 403 forbidden. I'm assuming it's just some minor cosmetic hiccup an...
Not really a bug, but something that I noticed. Opening the menu will give a second set of [sign up] [sign in] buttons, even though there are already a pair on the navbar. Since it is redundant, it...
This is a small one: "Ctrl+V" itself is handled correctly (first part of gif above).
