Search
I suspect it's a 500 if the search is not found in any tags. I can reproduce with a single-char search of z on Software. This is wild speculation, but maybe there's some item access that can't deal...
Yes, please! I think this is a great idea. Generally, I think requiring email verification is dumb. For this site it's doubly so. You did a great job enumerating all the reasons and I agree with t...
I'm glad you found the tag. Another place where some context shows up is on the page you linked to for the git tag:
It just occurred to me that it would be nice to have a "spam" reaction feature, to mark a post as potentially harmful while waiting for moderators to delete it. Benefits: Prevent other users fr...
When hovering over the upvote and downvote counts next to a post, the score of the post is displayed, which is helpful: However, the score is also displayed when hovering over the upvote and dow...
I like this idea. I'm not worried about the potential for "drama" because disruptive users already have many other tools at their disposal (such as, say, posting), and in practice this kind of disr...
Another use case: creating a data dump of the website. Any format is fine, but that'd be good to include as much information as possible (comments, deleted posts, etc.).
I followed the question posting process, and at the end saw that it posted 2 questions: Add an option to import one's Q&A from Stackexchange to Codidact. (mirror) Add an option to import on...
The "Copy Link" button below a post usually opens a panel that is narrower than the post, but now it is the width of the window. Since it does not start at the very left of the window, this means i...
Search results can now be sorted by activity in addition to the other options. We've also made the order of the options consistent: Activity, Age, Score on both search results and the category pos...
Posts have a warning when an HTML tag is used that is not supported: Comments do not have a similar warning, but comments also have tags that are not supported. Should comments have a warnin...
On a touchscreen device with an on-screen keyboard (such as a phone or tablet), the input field for a 2FA code brings up a keyboard of letters, requiring switching to numbers[1] before typing in th...
I just noticed that on the user profile page, the "All Communities" tab lists all communities where there is a profile, including deleted profiles. If a non-moderator follows a link to a deleted p...
FR: Throw an error message when a user attempts to paste an image over 2 MB Currently, it fails silently and no image is uploaded. I paste via ctrl+V or right-click->paste. I use instance of Br...
I viewed a rejected suggested edit, and then made an edit of my own to the same post. I then viewed the rejected suggested edit again, and noticed that the "before" content (the left hand side) inc...
My ideal solution would be to inform the user that search results for user:me require a signed in user in order to know who me refers to, and then show a sign in page that will automatically redire...
This checkbox is now labelled "Stay signed in on this device".
At the top right of each page is a link to Help. If you want a specific help article to be edited or added, please raise that on your community specific Meta so that a moderator can make tho...
Allow use of the <math> tag directly Whether we convert MathJax to MathML behind the scenes or not, users should be able to directly add <math> tags to their posts. We currently allow...
Identify and protect key slugs Some help topics are linked to from within the software. For example, the search page links to the topic for advanced search, formatting help is linked when creatin...
We've fixed this by fixing the underlying issue that made this change not as trivial as it first seemed. That text was, it turned out, baked into our code -- fine for us, but not appropriate for o...
We had fixed this a while back, then tried clearing the right place in the cache which fixed it on some communities but not others (weird!), and today after a deploy that required a server restart,...
Here's a different take. Let everyone see the moderator help pages. Having ordinary users understand the view of moderators and what they can and can't do doesn't sound like a bad thing, and fost...
If I wanted to migrate from Discord, I'd give Revolt a try. I don't know what the administrative load looks like, but it looks a lot like Discord, with servers and rooms, and down to the until-rec...
In general we shouldn't allow user names that game the system or exploit loopholes with no real advantage to the user, and at the expense and annoyance of all the other users. The two dots with a ...
