Q&A

Welcome to Codidact Meta!

Codidact Meta is the meta-discussion site for the Codidact community network and the Codidact software. Whether you have bug reports or feature requests, support questions or rule discussions that touch the whole network – this is the site for you.

Require title for comment thread

+6
−6

The title of a comment thread currently defaults to the start of the comment text. That has lead to a lot of partial-sentence comments visible below a post without comments expanded. Those look messy and are annoying, since you often can't tell at a glance what the comment is about. These titles can wrap to at least two lines, then get cut off anyway. That is even more messy.

I suggest that we:

  1. Limit comment thread title lengths to display in a single line.
  2. Require a deliberate title whenever the comment body is longer than that allowed for a title.
