I knew that blank lines are needed in certain places when mixing HTML markup with Markdown so that the Markdown will actually be processed. For example: <details> <summary> Gory deta...
Following up on Markup documentation? and What html tags can we use in posts?: I see that the site supports <section> tags in posts, and that these can have a class attribute. Recently I sa...
Can I follow/subscribe to a question so that I'm notified when it has new answers? It looks like a can subscribe to new comments using the "Follow new" button below a post, but I'm more interested...
I love the idea and hope this new approach gets implemented very soon! Some concerns: I suppose that if a proposal does not take off immediately, most of them can just sit around and wait unt...
This is now fixed. A "copy" button appears in the top right corner of a code block on hover (desktop) or on tap (mobile).
There is currently no general law community. However, domain specific questions might be able to be asked on their respective communities. (e.g. perhaps food safety regulations on Cooking) This how...
After making an edit that only adds tags, some redundant markdown is added to the beginning of the body of the post. This does not show up in the rendered post but it gives an inaccurate edit histo...
In the Q&A category of Meta a tag search for "proposal" shows 4 results, but a tag search for "proposal " (with a trailing space, as is commonly automatically inserted when typing on mobile) sh...
Motivation On Stack Exchange (SE) I could have a really hard time following a discussion in comments between multiple users if one of the users deleted their account or changed their username. He...
When this was initially proposed some years ago, I was very clearly opposed because I did not see much use in such a feature. Having, however, now used Mastodon as my main social platform for almos...
If I am on some web page (such as on Codidact), and want to check out some detail elsewhere on the web, my usual first step is to press Ctrl+N to open a new browser window, then navigate to do what...
This is already how it works. Those red/green bars in post lists are driven by a Wilson score for the post based on the numbers of up and downvotes. Post & answer sorting is also based on these...
Right now, the help center is structured with a main landing page with sections containing lists of specific help content, with each of these contents being on specific pages (example). That's fine...
Should you assume knowledge of all site rules? Should you assume knowledge of only "main" site rules but not all? I'm not sure what distinction you are trying to make here between "all si...
Monica already gave a good explanation of the issues with imports, so I'll focus on the other approaches described. About question selection We could just focus on the obscure questions to attr...
Should we remove such fluff? ... If we should remove fluff, should we remove all kinds of fluff? Or are there exceptions? (e.g. "emoticons are fine"). ... Does (or should) the policy depend on wh...
Given that a feature request or a bug report is more of a call-to-action to the developers rather than a question seeking an "answer," I am confused as to what an answer to a feature request or bug...
If we allow immediate updates to be "folded into" the original post, I would want to block it if anybody has interacted with the post -- if someone voted in that first minute, then an unannounced e...
Can the Scoring help page's sample chart start at 0 votes instead of 1? Lots of posts probably have no votes or only up or down votes.
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "shadowban", but this does pretty much exist already. Most communities on the network - I believe all of them except for Electrical Engineering at the moment - ...
There's no built-in way to do this, but you're welcome to join our Discord server and we can set up a private chat there.
For quite a few months now, every single time I have loaded up a draft that I was working on, only the post body has been loaded in. The tag list and title never appear. They are either not saved, ...
Most Codidact communities have a link to chat (currently Discord) in the right hand panel under "Codidact": However, 2 communities do not have the link to chat: These communities are:...
In the vote summary page the votes received for each day are listed (both upvotes and downvotes), and there is also a total next to the date. This allows seeing at a glance how many votes were rece...
Thanks for the report - it looks like that step was missed when setting up those communities for whatever reason. I've gone and updated the site settings for both Outdoors and Proposals and they sh...
