Yes let's fix this I would definitely like to see the notifications panel stay open after a ctrl+click (or cmd+click on MacOS). This is standard browser functionality which should not result in an...
At the top of the user page there is a row of tabs, such as "Profile", "Activity", and "Vote Summary". These are followed by a horizontal blue line which separates them from the content of each tab...
Keep it simple To keep things simple, deleted community users should not show up for anyone on the "All Communities" tab. For global moderators and global admins, separate tools can be made for tr...
Until the system has a way to distinguish between the different reasons for deletion, we should ensure we consider users who have done nothing wrong, and have a strong reason for concealing that th...
I'm not sure if the underlying cause is related, but I've seen a similar problem for drafting a new post. I just pressed "Ask Question" to post a new Meta question, and the text of this question (t...
Below a question are buttons for sorting the answers: Pressing one of these buttons results in a page reload, with the answers now sorted according to the chosen criterion. For cases where ...
An example in favour of listing Need Help Setting Up Email Verification in Codidact is a question that was posted to Codidact Meta, because this is the closest match of the communities in the drop...
This answer is just an example with a footnote so you can see the problem described in the question. Click on the footnote link[1] in this answer and you will be taken to the footnote at the botto...
If a post uses a Markdown footnote, and then another post on the same page also uses a footnote (such as a question and one of its answers, or 2 answers to the same question), the footnote link goe...
Codidact posts support a safe subset of HTML. Currently the <svg> tag is not supported. SVG images can still be safely included using the <img> tag[1] (or a Markdown image link, which i...
In the edit history for a post, the initial version is labelled "Initial revision" even though it is not a revision. What would make more sense here? Initial post? Initial version? Initial wor...
Should clicking on the question body preview in the question list take you to the question page, in the same way as clicking on the question title does? I personally would find this more convenien...
Correct behaviour At the bottom of the right hand panel of the user profile page (or at the bottom of the page on mobile where there is no right hand panel), the number of flags that the user has ...
By default all edits should show Every time an edit is made, the post or its parent should move to the top of the question list. This reduces the chance of an edit being missed by the community. ...
Wary of trying to be too general Although I like the idea of this for making sure indications of interest don't last indefinitely on Codidact Proposals, trying to find a general use for expiring r...
Some places render "--" (double hyphen) as "—" (em dash). Currently Codidact does not -- so these are left as double hyphens in both the edit preview and a rendered post (like that). Would it be ...
On the Tags tab, clicking on a tag in the list follows a link to the specific tag page. However, this only works if you click on the tag itself. The tags in the list each have a snippet of their de...
Here on Meta the tags "community-proposal" and "new-communities" both have descriptions referring to the Site Proposals category. Can these be updated to refer to (and possibly link to) the new Cod...
