I am wondering about the number of votes required to perform the following actions: close reopen delete restore I have found this forum thread, but it is unclear what are the current values.
I have been informed of the following bug. I am using iPad Safari browser. When I add an image to a post, the system only says "uploading, please wait ...". After waiting for a long time, the image...

Also see the more active discussion on https://meta.codidact.com/questions/278386 Will there ever be something akin to StackExchange Community Wikis? While I'm not sure of the specifics (I've neve...
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...
When signed out and viewing a question, there is a "Sign up to answer this question" button. However, there is no "Sign in to answer this question" button, which I think should be added for parity.

On Judaism.Codidact, I merged two tags (parashat-vayeishev and vayeshev), each containing one question, into the parshat-vayeishev tag, which also contained one question. I didn't check, but I'm p...
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).
When making footnotes by using [^1], the preview1 shows the "1" with an extra set of brackets: Note: As you can tell, it doesn't actually make a difference in the real appearance, just in the p...
Can there be an option to cancel writing a comment; AFAIK, the only way to do that now is to refresh the page, which is annoying to do (especially when feeling lazy).

When I type something in the tag box, a list of similarly named tags is produced, along with the actual thing I typed, and I can click to select the tag I want. If I type something with spaces (e.g...
Sometimes when stumbling across a question I wonder if I should upvote / downvote or not. When this happened on SE sites, I hovered over the buttons and read the description. Currently, Codidact se...
See the history of this post, the reason for closure (closed as duplicate) doesn't appear in it; when I reopened the question the close reason and duplicate target were completely lost since it was...

Just a small feature request, preventing duplicate links in the widget would let more posts into the Hot Posts section. Image
I propose that a category should be possible to set such that questions are closed by default (with a specific, selectable close reason that applies to all questions posted to that category) immedi...
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....
I just noticed a bug related to file extension when uploading pictures to the site. If you have named your file *.JPG the site complains about invalid file extension since it only knows *.jpg. Rena...
Could you please make the "Insert image" tool treat file extensions as case-insensitive when checking for validity? When I post here on Meta, I frequently insert screenshots taken from MS Windows' ...
It would be nice if hovering on a question tag, a tooltip containing the whole HTML formatted usage guidance is shown.
There's a variety of actions which results in a display page saying "403 FORBIDDEN"; for example, accessing a deleted question without sufficient reputation to view deleted questions, including whe...
In the last few days, something has changed so that I now have to sign in again every visit to Codidact. This is using the same browser on the same machine as before (Edge, Win 10) which worked fi...
When I try to send a moderator warning to a user with no suspension, the user gets suspended. Here's me about to warn a test account with no suspension: Here's what I get after I click the "Warn (...
Each site and category has a default license that is selected as default for new posts to that category. The license actually assigned to each post is that selected by the user when the post is ini...
On my Speculative Science page there's an incorrect link to my website: https://https//https://https://https://sites.google.com/site/rebeccajstones/. It looks like it didn't import properly, as it...
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 ...
Users can specify the language of a code block by adding it after the first set of triple backticks. For example, this question over on Software Dev uses it for C. What programming languages are su...
We have a tool for doing bulk imports of questions (and answers) from SE. It has several limitations: Running it requires direct DB access. The resulting data is sometimes wrong in various ways -...
(Please note that I write this post only for the record. I personally do not hope that some changes will be made.) I have been informed of some contradictory policies (attitudes), which I personall...
Right now for me, the links here https://outdoors.codidact.com/mod/featured are listed with the oldest on top, I think it would make more sense to order them the other way.
When I try to access /users/edit/profile to edit my profile, I seem to be triggering a 500 server error (ID: d737d104-eea0-45a7-bd81-fda1070c6070). This is what I see in the browser console, if it'...
I'm sure there are people who love the keyboard shortcuts. However, I find them to (a) be somewhat overzealous (just now, I was somehow redirected to the "ask question" page while I was writing an ...
When You have the keyboard shortcuts menu open while asking a question1, the "tag" bar is on top of it Since this is only a problem in this uncommon situation, it doesn't have to take priority ...
In my notifications box, I had two notifications: You were mentioned in a comment mark unread and New comment on Should we show tags before the body, to provide context for reading the question...
Recently, we had a question asked about priorities of the 'community team'1. The poster then self-answered (which is fine). This answer then got deleted2 and a different user asked a question about...
Before starting the concern, I want to appreciate and acknowledge the community team for their volunteer efforts to run Codidact and handle its issues as far as they can. When I sometimes talk to s...
I would prefer to post questions in Codidact than on Stack Exchange and I want to contribute to Codidact by doing so. However, I am certain that the probability of getting a useful answer is higher...
For what reasons post (answer or question) might be removed by moderator / staff ? I do not ask about obvious reasons like spam, off-topic, base rule violations, etc here. Context: history. Obviou...
I'm trying the tour at https://meta.codidact.com/tour/ask . I really like how people are given first-hand experience with writing a question! However, it is not currently loading tags. Above the li...
