I'm honestly not sure what is going on here. Once I'm logged in to a Codidact site, if I click "sign out" in the top right corner of each page, I get signed out -- which is exactly what you'd expec...
There should be, I know of a few JavaScript libs that will save what you type into the browsers local storage. Many of them will work automatically with html forms and are quite easy to integrate.
Some mitigation: Sometime in the last several months (sorry I missed updating here at the time), we added a flag type that is visible to people with the Curate ability: Change post status Th...
I love the new "All Communities" section of the user profile page. I've already found it useful several times. I have an idea for an additional feature: The numbers in the columns could be links. ...
The first tab on the user page, "Profile", has the username above the row of tabs: All of the other tabs on the user page have the title below the row of tabs: This means that when sw...
Considering both timeframe and last N events We could base awarding of an ability on both proportion of events in a timeframe, and proportion of events in the last N events. I'll use concrete numb...
I don't use the chat associated with Codidact for three reasons: It's a waste of time. If there is something to talk about that would be content in one of the Q&A sites, then that's where it ...
I would like to address close messages on Q&A, especially on Codidact and even more special to the community-to-be of Worldbuilding. I approach this from a psychological point of view from a n...
This is a partial response, not a complete answer, but I want to provide an update. You're right that the various policy-related links are not as prominent as they should be. Changing the TOS, ev...
Thank you for this. You're absolutely right - we don't currently do enough in terms of providing guidance for users when something goes wrong. It's part of our vision for the platform that we'll pr...
Proposals When proposing a new Codidact community, there is a proposal template but it is a separate page in the help system, provided as a link from the top of the new post page in the Descriptio...
This one has been a thorn in our sides for a while, but I think we've finally fixed 500s from tag search for all of the cases that were breaking. It turns out that our pagination code did not like...
Request #1 is now live; the button says "view post", implying nothing about how you got there. We have some discussion in progress about how to approach request #2. If the suggested-edit page wer...
When writing or editing a post, a draft is automatically saved and reloaded if you close the page and come back to it later. I find this very helpful (particularly when switching between devices). ...
Markdown does not appear to be processed in the reason given for closing a question. For example, there is a Markdown link in the following close reason, but it is rendered as plain text rather tha...
If a moderator deletes an answer, and the author of the answer tries to restore it, a notice is added to the top of the page saying "You cannot restore this post deleted by a moderator", but the UR...
I agree we want to make it easier for those being recruited for a specific proposal to be able to focus on that proposal and not all the others. You can see all the posts for a proposal by startin...
The ToS address this only very broadly, very generically, and with a heavy reliance on the policies of individual communities and the judgment of their members and moderators. "Creating an account...
Not necessarily the first column, but there's something wonky in that one: X Element Description . hydrogen Fusce molestie nibh id tellus semper, at porta nisi rhoncus. Praesent...
The fix for "Although div tag is not allowed, it's rendered in the preview" has also fixed this inconsistent style problem. Entering the same raw text into the input text box now results in an edi...
Based on the comment discussion, I can see no reason to consider support for syntax highlight hinting via HTML comments. "Code fences" have a built-in syntax highlighting suggestion and are all aro...
Sometimes, after having the site open for a while, it has been automatically signed out. This will not be apparent until you try to navigate and see the page in the signed out layout (no user avata...
We currently show who deleted a post -- regardless of whether anything was flagged -- to anybody who can see the post. This seems to me like a good thing for transparency. If it was your own post...
We're absolutely interested in helping new contributors, and we don't have as strong a mentoring program as we'd like. We encourage prospective contributors to join our platform Discord server, wh...
Where? On the page "/abilities/everyone" (Link to Codidact Meta version) What? Under "What does this ability allow me to do?" subheading, first line. Erroneous part bolded for sake of this post....
