- ## November 2022
- We've deployed a large backlog of changes made to the code since March:
- - Post lists now show a question preview. We're aware that this might require some [further adjustments](https://meta.codidact.com/posts/287456). Preview length can be set per-community if desired (0 to disable).
- - Comment improvements:
- - The existence of deleted comments is more obvious.
- - Comments now show when they were last edited, if they were.
- - Syntax highlighting in code works.
- - You can follow future new comment threads on a post ("follow new").
- - Profile editing now shows a preview for the "about" text, and fixed a bug with image uploads in profiles.
- - Added a network preference to make the top bar sticky.
- - Improvements to tag-matching when adding tags to a post.
- - Moderators can create new tags from the "tags" page. All fields (name, summary, description, parent tag) are editable in a single form. [Rationale](https://github.com/codidact/qpixel/issues/180).
- - Email subscriptions: fixed a bug that caused repeated notifications, added tag subscriptions (from the tag page).
- - Search now includes some syntax hints. Also fixed a bug with searching for `answers:0`.
- - Keyboard shortcut `d` opens the dashboard.
- - The "hot" list excludes posts that are closed or locked.
- - Small layout changes to comment thread pages (title at top, expanders below), user profile votes summary (wording, daily net change), mod tools (backlinks).
- - Fixed some of the server 500 errors.
- There were also a bunch of fixes and improvements that don't affect existing deployments (like this one) but make it easier to set up [new ones](https://meta.codidact.com/posts/286827). Examples: removing hard-coded references to codidact.com, allowing the tour to be customized, updates to database seeding, not assuming files are stored on S3, infrastructure changes to docker and ruby.
- ## March 2022
- - Fixed a potential server error with the "account" tab on user profiles
- ## February 2022
- - Wrap long usernames in user cards to prevent card overflow
- - Show only a single column user list on mobile
- - Category page default sort order is now the same as the site navigation header
- ## January 2022
- - Moved the dashboard link to the header to make it easier to access
