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 What recourse is there for incorrect close/delete?

Q&A Should we start displaying the score of a post instead of the raw votes?

In my view displaying fractional numbers representing an unintuitive measure would be even worse than displaying two integers representing the up and down counts. I would be in favor of displaying...

Q&A Clicking outside of notification popup does not close it

Usually, the notification popup isn't floating. So, notification popup can't detect when you click outside. That's why it doesn't close when you click outside.
