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 Where do meta questions about the Codidact Collab site belong?

Oh sorry; I'll fix that description. By "help using the sites" I think we meant issues specific to this network. You can go ahead and ask Collab meta questions on Collab; it's a small community a...

Q&A Drop down panels drift away from their buttons on zooming

This is pretty much by-design. Zooming in web browsers is not "really" just enlarging the displayed parts, but instead changes a lot of settings/properties for the web page, such as screen resolut...

Q&A Allow pasting images directly into the editor.

This is already possible - pasting an image should insert image markdown reading "Uploading, please wait..." which is replaced by a link to the completed upload once it's done.
