Codidact isn't a forum; it is a Q&A (question and answer) site. A user should expect that the first thing they see is The Answer - not the first answer, but the best answer, which here is determined by voting. Think StackExchange, Quora, Alternative.to, etc.
Further, many popular forums sort by "B... (more) |

It's probably impossible. The previous searches popup is a browser functionality, nothing to do with Codidact itself. I'll defer to the actual tech team though to confirm. (more) |

Warnings and suspensions log should include suspended abilities Not sure if this is an oversight or a bug, but suspending a privilege doesn't add a log to the "warnings and suspensions sent to user" moderator tool. (more) |

Since this would be another filter, I don't think having the view changes is much of an issue: after all, it's natural for the "Positive" tab and the "All" tab to have differences, isn't it?
Also, like I mentioned on my previous answer, "Positive" could be set as the default, making it even more m... (more) |

Perhaps I was thinking too much of it being *notes* on a user, rather than a *log*. The latter should obviously be immutable, while I was thinking of the former more like a shared space for moderators (more) |

| Question | — |
Newlines and formatting in user annotations Another self-explanatory feature-request. Currently user-annotations are one-line and plain-text only, which is a little restrictive. I wanted to add a link to the comment that had prompted the note, and it would be nice for it to be clickable. Newlines would also be nice so that I could, e.g. hav... (more) |

| Question | — |
Make user-annotations editable Basically the title. There's no edit button for annotations in the mod-tools, so if I make a mistake, there's no way to fix it. (I hit the enter key thinking it would insert a newline, but apparently annotations are one line only and it just submitted) (more) |

| Question | — |
Filter to show only positive posts In the past and more recently, there's been an issue of many negatively received posts being posted, leading to the front page being primarily negative. This is, of course, rather bad for image. Could another front-page filter, "Positive", be added which would filter out the negative posts? Perhap... (more) |

| Question | — |
Should tag editing be separate from post editing? Should tag editing be separate from post editing? By that I mean having a specific workflow to modify the tags of a question, different from the workflow to edit the content. Intuitively, I believe that tags are metadata, meaning separating it from the content itself makes sense to me. On a practi... (more) |

> In case I don't remember, I have to open the question in a separate page to read it, then go back to the previous page to comment.
I'm a bit confused. Why do you need to go to a separate page to read what you've written? The post is on the thread page as well. (more) |

Downvotes on this answer or the question being discussed? Personally, I don't agree with Olin's vote, but I respect that he considers it a valid downvote and overall, I agree with this answer. That's what *votes* are for, after all; they get summed up so that the community as a whole comes to a conse... (more) |

Well, archiving is there and I feel like this is more or less the idea situation for it. Also, perhaps someone would want to contest the change, and keeping the old thread around can provide more context for why it happened / provide a place to continue discussing the change, if archived and not lock...

| Question | — |
Archive to mark as "resolved", without locking the comment? I've recently come across a situation where I thought archiving the comment thread was appropriate: A user suggested an improvement in the thread, and that improvement was then implemented (by me). Then I realized that archiving actually also locks the thread and prevents anyone from responding fu... (more) |

@#8046 given that tags are pretty clearly delimited in the editor, I don't think that there would be much confusion.
@#54706 we could technically have that (in fact, we used to before the no-spaces rule was put in place) but for whatever reason that got removed (I forgot why since it was some time... (more) |

Users can suggest tags with spaces (but the suggestion can't be approved) See this suggested edit, where the user suggested adding the tag "American English". Due to it having a space, I am unable to approve the edit, getting the message > Tags may not include spaces or underscores Note: I changed the tag from "American English" to "American-English" to try to get i...

A: Incubator (takes all questions that aren't on-topic anywhere else) community I am in favor of such a site. Although, yes, when launching a new community, we should "Ensure that there is high quality, unique content upon launch", this incubator would serve as the place to collect that content in the first place. Once we see that hey, this topic is often asked about, with a ... (more) |

A: Can we please stop linkifying random strings that happen to look like domain names? (Reposting here for visibility) For the time being, there is a relatively simple workaround. It appears that Markdown isn't detected within HTML tags, so you can wrap the URL-like in a span or other tag and it won't turn into a link. `dead.sh` -> dead.sh `dead.sh` -> dead.sh etc. (more) |

If there exists an acceptable answer to your question elsewhere, it is fine to self-answer with a link and some quotations of that answer. That way, others who find the question on Codidact have a direct link to the answer. If the answer truly does solve the problem effectively and clearly, then it's... (more) |
