License CC BY-SA 3.0 only available on Writing and Outdoors For 2 communities (Writing and Outdoors) the License drop down list when making a new post shows an option of CC BY-SA 3.0: Dropdown list for license, showing CC BY-SA 3.0 For all of the other Codidact communities this option is not present. Is the option only there for historical reasons, o... (more) |

| Question | — |
Does "site" mean "community" or "Codidact" on License field? Above the drop down list for license when making a new post, it mentions "site default". As people use the word "site" to mean different things, this could be ambiguous, particularly for a new user. Would it be clearer to use one of the following: - community default - Codidact default I'm gu... (more) |

Ah I see now. Interesting. A separate accessibility issue is the contrast problem of putting the colours behind the text - but that could easily be avoided by having the same colour and shading to the side of the text instead of behind. (more) |

Incorrect description for CC BY-SA 3.0 in license drop down list This will become irrelevant if License CC BY-SA 3.0 only available on Writing and Outdoors results in CC BY-SA 3.0 no longer being available For those communities where it is present, CC BY-SA 3.0 has a description of: > You've opted to be required to choose a license explicitly for every p...

Very narrow blank option in Default license drop down list The drop down list of options for "Default license" in the "Community Preferences" section of the "Preferences" tab on the user profile page does not appear to have the option of returning to blank. The only visible options are licenses, or "No default (make me choose)". This seems like a problem if ... (more) |

Also worth bearing in mind that having some of the info available on hover makes it difficult or impossible to access on a mobile device. That's already a problem with the existing state though, not specific to your suggested improvement. (more) |

The accessible palettes make an improvement in how *distinguishable* the colours are (more people will be able to tell them apart) but they do not help with how *identifiable* the colours are. Many people are already conditioned to see green as good and red as bad, but people who see the accessible p... (more) |

Ah I see (and well demonstrated with this thread title - thanks for that).
My guess is that comments before and after threaded comments were introduced would both be overlooked for automatic empty thread deletion if their last comment was deleted before the automation was introduced. I don't have ... (more) |

I don't have a Chromium based browser available to test with so I don't know whether the font size on Chrome is different causing 64 em to be a much larger pixel value, or whether it's independent of browser and related to any fonts / font sizes you may have overridden.
I don't think it's uncommon... (more) |

It's also worth considering whether 1068 pixels width is where you want the switch between limited and unlimited height to happen. Maybe this was aimed at having no height limit on mobile? However, on a full HD screen viewing 2 windows side by side (so each is half width), the unlimited height will b... (more) |

It turns out that the containing `div` tag has a class of `profile-text` which is defined to have a `max-height` of 500 pixels, causing a scroll bar if the profile content (text or image or any combination) is taller than that in total.
It's overridden by a `@media` query in the CSS that removes t... (more) |

I'm using Firefox on Fedora Linux. At width 1068 pixels and narrower there is no scroll bar and the full image is visible. At width 1070 pixels and wider there is a scroll bar and a small amount of the image is cut off at the bottom. (more) |

However, there are some threads that still exist despite having all their comments deleted (presumably because they were deleted before the automation was introduced). This is what they look...

Tall profile content (image or text) causes scroll bar only on desktop I recently added an image to my user profile as an experiment.
