I find the copy button on code blocks in posts very useful. Could this also be added to code blocks in other places such as help documents? For example, the Template for Proposal Posts would be mu...
The sorting buttons at the top of a category's post list include "Activity", "Age", and "Score", which are all orders into which to sort the posts. However, for sites with imported content they als...
The sorting buttons at the top of a category's post list have title text which appears on hovering with a mouse, but this is not available on mobile devices. "Activity", "Age", and "Score" are r...
If a code block contains a line too long to fit in the available horizontal space, the excess to the right is hidden, with a scroll bar to allow seeing the rest (this is a good thing): Raw text: ...
Prevent zero only I'm comfortable with preventing users from posting zero character comments and posts. I agree there are times when insisting on 15 characters is unhelpful. For comments, I se...
This is the filter section above a post list: In a category where I have set a default filter, I can temporarily view the post list using a different filter by selecting it from the "Predefined ...
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 ...
Switch off animation until a decision is made I've posted an answer listing possible options which can be discussed over time, but I recommend that in the meantime animation is suppressed complete...
I was in the middle of drafting a very similar Meta question when I noticed this one had just been posted. I will instead post my thoughts here as an answer, to prompt further discussion. I see the...
With many different Codidact communities and more being proposed, along with other organisations that have their own instances of the QPixel software, it seems unlikely that any single one of these...
During the transition from having a Site Proposals category on Meta to having a separate Codidact Proposals community, there is a message at the top of the Site Proposals category with a link to th...
On the Abilities page clicking on the name of an ability takes you to the specific ability page. However, clicking on the row of the table anywhere other than the name of the ability just highlight...
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...
In the Q&A category of Meta a tag search for "proposal" shows 4 results, but a tag search for "proposal " (with a trailing space, as is commonly automatically inserted when typing on mobile) sh...
In the Descriptions category of the Codidact Proposals community, anyone can edit any proposal description. This is in contrast to other categories where suggested edits require approval before bei...
In the Vote Summary tab of the user page, each of a users posts shows how many votes up and down: This shows voting, but does not make clear how this affects reputation. In this example, the fir...

In a comment thread, I can notify someone by including "@username". I also get notified of replies, even if they do not include my username in this way. What determines who is notified of a comment...
Here is what your answer looks like on my machine: You can see that the bullet points are rendered correctly, so it sounds like it is the rendering of bullet points on your machine that is probl...
I noticed that the edit to the tags in this edit history does not have a tag diff section. It makes it appear that the second version of this post has no changes: For comparison, here is tag-onl...
This bug appears to be fixed, but it is not. The following works for me, but the original poster of the answer can still see the deleted thread. How it seems to someone who didn't post the origina...
This appears to be fixed. I just tried making an empty edit to this question and received an error message:
Difference between older images and recent images Following a link to the url of an image uploaded to Codidact redirects to an AWS link for recently uploaded images. For older images, following th...
After making an edit that only adds tags, some redundant markdown is added to the beginning of the body of the post. This does not show up in the rendered post but it gives an inaccurate edit histo...
