Question Unable to create paragraphs in comments
In comments, neither ``` line one line two ``` nor ``` line one line two ``` (with two spaces after line one) work to create a new line, the comment ends up being `line one line two`. This has messed up my formatting more than once, as I usually do something like ``` "quote from ...

Comment Post #278692 @Dani I went by the "main idea", that is, they would be happy for a follow feature but their actual request (as stated in the title) is for an RSS feed.

Question Close reason doesn't appear in post history
See the history of this post, the reason for closure (closed as duplicate) doesn't appear in it; when I reopened the question the close reason and duplicate target were completely lost since it wasn't shown anywhere other than in the close banner.

Comment Post #278692 Reopened, this is a request for an rss feed. The other post is about getting notifications. While similar in purpose, one can be implemented without the other request being fulfilled so I don't see them as duplicates

Answer A: A badge! A badge for completing the Codidactyl Tour. Or even several badges!! And points!!
As sort of an extension of Zerotime's response, > I really liked the opportunity on the SE sites to be able to gain badges for domain knowledge and this is something I can envision to exist here as well because it helps (new) users to discern if among all the answers they get there are answers fro...

Comment Post #278715 Thanks for your hard work! a couple comments: 1. Maybe y'all should consider making a shared team account for these posts. At least for me, it was kind of weird having "an interview with one of the Codidact leads" instead of "an interview with me" (as the interviewee, you, is the "author" of the post...

Question Extraneous pair of sign in/sign up buttons in menu
Not really a bug, but something that I noticed. Opening the menu will give a second set of [sign up] [sign in] buttons, even though there are already a pair on the navbar. Since it is redundant, it can be safely removed. Screenshot Screenshot

Question Can't open hamburger menu on this Meta when signed out
Title is self-explanatory; on mobile (or when I just resize the browser window so it appears), the hamburger menu doesn't work on meta.codidact.com when not signed in. It works as expected on every other community, or when signed in.

Comment Post #278702 "sometimes it's really hard to know who this user was before changing names." The solution, of course, is to display the user id immediately after the username, that way you can just mem people's ids ;)

Comment Post #278642 @manassehkatz It's a suggestion for a name though, I doubt people will first think of it as "code(v.) games" and will actually take as "code(n.) games" unless they really contrive to do so

Comment Post #278701 The current implementation of abilities (on dev) shows earned abilities publicly, so there isn't really a need for badges in that case. As for domain knowledge, if there's no technical reason to have tag "badges" (ex on SE it gives close rights for questions under that specific tag), then I would ...

Question Tables in posts
Can we have the ability to create tables? Right now, according to this answer tables are not on the list of things allowed in posts, which is a shame because I can see many uses for them, such as the many, many, many questions about spreadsheets over on Software[^1] I'd also use them to create con...

Comment Post #278642 @manassehkatz I can see your point, though I personally don't associate "Coding Challenges" with "unanswered problems in Computer Science".

Answer A: Site suggestion - Code Golf
I guess I'll go put my own suggestions in ;) Suggestions: Name: Code Games / Programming Games I feel like for a name, "Code Golf and Coding Challenges" is too long. We're gonna have to somehow make it into a logo as well. I chose "Games" to promote the sense of friendly competition. Also...

Comment Post #278608 Therefore, we might actually want to split code golf off from other types of challenges. My revised suggestion would be having code golf as a specific post type in the Challenges category, and enabling the leaderboard for just that one. I'm not sure how feasible that would be though.

Comment Post #278608 "Challenges would be in their own category ... a separate category means the leaderboard would only need to be enabled there." An automated leaderboard really would only work for Code Golf (where there is an easy score for any submission); King of the Hill, Cops & Robbers, and other host defined scor...

Comment Post #278608 @MonicaCellio Interesting. I asked that because I don't think a code golf community would need a Q&A category - anything that isn't a challenge or a sandbox post would be Meta, no?

Comment Post #278608 @MonicaCellio Code Golfing is a type of challenge. I'd suggest having Challenges, Sandbox, and Meta as categories, and then having code-golf etc. as tags

Comment Post #278608 "Golf challenges would be in their own category (there are other types of questions)." Will you also make a category for King of the Hill, Cops and Robbers, etc.? I feel like it'd get out of hand quickly. Why not just use tags?

Question No way to remove parent tag.
Over on Software, the [excel] tag was mistakenly put as a subtag of [openoffice-calc]. When I went to edit the tag to fix it, I realized there was no option to remove the parent tag. I ended up asking an admin on the discord to remove it, but for the future, could there be a way to remove parent tags...
