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.

Search

Advanced Search Options

To further refine your search, you can use additional qualifiers such as score:>0.5. For example, the search score:>=0.5 created:<1y grammar would return only posts mentioning "grammar" that have a score >= 0.5 and were created less than a year ago. Use category:<ID> to restrict your search to one category (the ID is what's shown after /categories/ in the URL).

Further help with searching is available in the help center.

Quick hints: tag:tagname, user:xxx, "exact phrase", post_type:xxx, created:<N{d,w,mo,y}, score:>=0.5

Q&A Should tags be written in American or in British English?

Neither. Both are wrong for they are incomplete. Use any at the data layer, but if possible, both at the same time - every meaningful data is stored; and use something like 🇦🇹 blah / 🇩🇪 bleh at the...

Q&A Do we need the drop down menu at the upper right corner to link to all other communities?

Yes, I do find it helpful although at the bottom you also have the same information. Since in some communities I am suspended or banned at least then I can go to others, like I have done now.
