It's currently not feasible to develop a built-in chat system. While we do plan on having an integrated chat at some point in the future, it's not a possibility with the current time and resources ...
I don't think that visiting site A while logged in on site B should automatically create an account on site A, for at least two reasons: Doing it inflates the list of users, making it harder to g...
While the current notification system is okay, I'd like to be able to receive email notifications for things such as a new answer to my questions. (Of course, this should be opt-in. Maybe add a che...
My patience is running thin with code formatting on Codidact. I've made this feature request before on Software Development only (here) but no reply. We currently have 5 communities which definite...
I want to design a network profile (and then possibly implement it). There was already discussion about that in Community dropdown and profile information, Understanding how posts were possibly rec...
We've had several bug reports here on Meta about server 500 errors, and we know that these can deter participation. That's bad at any time but especially when we are trying to grow. We want to do...
This is already being discussed in a comment thread, but I'm bumping it up to an answer for visibility and so it can be voted on. "We may update our terms from time to time without further notic...
Currently, we can search for posts by a particular user by including user:unique_user_number, where the unique user number can be found from the user's profile URL. Would you find it useful to be ...
In the list of posts, or at the bottom of a post, there is an indication of how long ago it was posted. In a desktop environment with a mouse, hovering over this duration gives an exact date and ti...
By default the search also finds answers, and since there are no answers attached to those (you cannot answer an answer, after all), it shows them as well. To get rid of them, specifically ask for...
The service we use to generate user avatars - Unicornify - is temporarily down. I've reached out to the person who runs the site, but he as of yet hasn't gotten back to me. Hopefully this'll be fi...
By definition, if a question is frequently asked, then it's also a duplicate. It seems to me that the proper way to handle frequently-asked questions where each question post aims to be the one pl...
Moderation isn't the only issue, although that's one aspect of it. We don't want to set out to create ghost towns. The point of making sure that there are people who are interested in a proposal b...
Yes, you can. Codidact’s platform is open-source for a reason. Anyone can clone the repositories and use the software however they want, provided that you follow the terms of the license that the ...
Follow the "Contact us" link in the page footer In the footer of (I believe every) page, there is a "Contact us" link. Following that takes you to a page that describes how to report issues, speci...
One of the concerns of How can we grow this community posts (see on Power Users and on Linux Systems) is that the sites may not be active enough, resulting in a poor first impression. If my calcul...
Based on feedback to this answer and other conversations, I propose the following: Allow anybody with the Curate ability to edit the title at any time (this is true today). Allow the crea...
When I move the mouse over the “posted … ago” text below a post, I get a tooltip with the actual posting time. However if I do the same on the last edited field (the one with the pencil at front), ...
I noticed that questions exist on this network and are accessible that are unlikely to ever be very helpful, for example because they were marked as completely off-topic. Examples Are internati...
This edit consists mostly of small corrections on punctuation and typos. Currently, the edit diff view highlights the whole paragraph in which a change was made in green/red background, and uses bo...
S.E. provides links to comments. Can Codidact do same please?
Each site and category has a default license that is selected as default for new posts to that category. The license actually assigned to each post is that selected by the user when the post is ini...
It was an old project developed by ArtOfCode before the Codidact project even started: https://forum.codidact.org/t/i-have-an-se-clone-how-do-we-feel-about-building-on-that/74 (Why it was named Q...
Sort posts in one's own profile by score or age The profile main page includes a selection of posts (currently top 15 by score), which highlights contributions by that user. It would be nice if i...
