I'm not fully familiar with everything that's possible and not with the current software, but I'm a moderator on two Codidact sites (Writing and Scientific Speculation), so hopefully I can provide ...
Can the display order of help pages for a site be explicitly set somehow? I'm starting to create help pages for a new site, and would like to set the order they are shown in. For example, I'd like...
Currently two sites, Outdoors and Photography are running month-long contests. Currently, both are showing up in the Hot Posts list, but that will only be for a week or so. Could it be possible to ...
Whenever there is a new comment or answer to one of my posts, I get a notification in my notification bar. However, even though I click on it and read the content in question, the notifications don...
I tried to edit a recipe I'd posted, by using the "edit" link below the post text. That gave me a 404 Not Found error. Looking at the URL, I noticed that it says /answers/.../edit, which is wrong b...
I know that I can notify users that I wrote something regarding their comment by adding them by using @Username, for example "@Username That's a nice idea!". How do I notify users who have a space ...
Simply omit the space, and ping @UserName. I'm not 100% sure whether having characters after it breaks the notification, but I tend to avoid it to be on the safe side. Comments are due for an overh...
I don't know enough to have a full answer, but one differentiation that I think makes sense is for embedded systems programming versus more commonplace programming (desktop, web, server, ...). The ...
From https://codidact.com/ there is a link "communities", leading to https://codidact.com/community-assets/. Clicking on it gives 403 forbidden. I'm assuming it's just some minor cosmetic hiccup an...
A community with common interests is a part of it too. At Some Other place somebody wanted to combine all the Abrahamic religion sites into one, arguing that they share a lot of biblical books and...
Here on Meta, I see beneath a question a "🔧 Tools" button. It looks clickable (my mouse turns into a hand and the background changes onhover) but nothing happens when I click it. On Electrical Eng...
I think that if the tag has a (long- or short-form) description then it should not be automatically deleted. I can imagine a case where some enterprising soul writes descriptions for every conceiva...
A suggestion that I recall seeing on MSE is that hot network questions get a feature similar that protection on Stack Exchange where users need some (presumably very low) threshold of trust earned ...
I noticed that How can I shorten a piece of writing without losing its original essence? on Writing Codidact appeared to be tagged writing-instruments, but the question does not relate to writing i...
ARTICLE 4 After every election, the Panel elects one member as chairperson. I fail to find any other reference to the role of chairperson in the proposal. Especially considering that a "reporter"...
I think a search mechanism that allows filtering by category would be useful. For example, if I want to find a recipe for a specific food or with a specific ingredient on the cooking pages, I could...
The GDPR requires (article 20 right to data portability, paragraph 1, in part) that: 1. The data subject shall have the right to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which he or she ha...
I don't like the idea that someone's signature can appear on a piece of text that he didn't write or approve. I'm guessing moderators can edit comments. If so, can a moderator-edited comment please...
I haven't found the option to remove/delete account in neither "Account" tab nor "Edit" one. I don't want to do it but I think it should be possible anyway. The Q what should happen to content that...
In the footer, the sites are currently arranged as: Writing Outdoors Photography Sci Spec Cooking Electrical Engineering Judaism L&L Software Dev Meta With the exclusion of setting Meta apart...
One of the things we look for in a new site is enough interested participants to make it viable. We now ask people to make their interest known, because votes don't necessarily correlate with inte...
Opened a PR for that: https://github.com/codidact/qpixel/pull/170.
A considerable portion of the reason we're (still) here is because we believe that SE is not the 'only possible best way'. Currently, sure, ignoring categories (and post types), it does look not di...
You might have noticed, that the Hot Posts sidebar widget changed. This is, because we added some new features surrounding it. Most noteably, moderators can now feature links to that bulletin. This...
Can the Hot Question list be changed so that featured posts don't show up in it? They are already in the list once.
