Answer A: Unusual button layout on mobile browser
Yes, [status-bydesign]. I didn't see any other way to make them all fit while keeping them reasonably large tap targets.

Answer A: Software Engineering && Mathematics && Computer Science
Let me refer you to an answer I wrote a few days ago. One person can't start a community - it simply doesn't work. To get a successful site moving, there needs to be a group of people willing to put in the time and effort to seed and curate high-quality content and to get the word out about the co...

Comment Post #74883 @JamesJenkins As long as it's a direct link to an image, adding a ! should embed the image in the post - that should work anywhere Markdown is supported.

Answer A: I suggest a "MediaWiki Answers" sort of site
Here's the thing. This Site Suggestions category is here for, per its description, folks who have some sort of core group of users interested in building a site. The idea for a site is one thing, but it's not enough to get a good, active site going - a site needs a community, and one person does not ...

Comment Post #74832 I'm thinking of something like this: <https://meta.codidact.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsibWVzc2FnZSI6IkJBaHBidz09IiwiZXhwIjpudWxsLCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--b8a402898b15a6ea725fc7f3993c7256ef39d4aa/Screenshot%20from%202020-05-04%2019-59-09.png>

Comment Post #74834 Heh. I just ran into this entirely independently too, so this is definitely an issue. I'll see what I can do about that.

Comment Post #74832 No reason why they couldn't, @mattdm - I'd just have them list across the top of a category page. Let me mock something up.

Comment Post #74832 There's also an argument to be made that it might be worth starting with fewer categories as I suggested here, and then if you _do_ end up with a wall of one type, that's a good argument that it should have its own category.

Comment Post #74832 @mattdm I see what you're getting at, but I'm not convinced categories are the right solution either. We'll also have support for a custom top-of-sidebar slot soon - in theory for "professional services" disclaimers such as Law and Mi Yodeya have, but it could also be abused for something saying "X, ...

Comment Post #74833 Licensing will be available by launch in any case - the PR adding the feature in is in final review and will be merged and deployed shortly, after which we can add whatever license you think is right.

Answer A: Photo-Video Codidact Site
Bear in mind how categories work: Image alt text That works great for a few categories, but not so great when you've got lots. That's by-design: categories are intended to be very broad groups of questions, as Monica's already said in a comment. Think of how distinct Q&A and Meta are from one a...

Comment Post #74828 Yup, I picked up on them, @JamesJenkins - you _can_ also report on meta if you want to, quote the error ID it gives you. That mostly just helps me keep track of what's actually affecting people and what's low-priority.

Answer A: Category subscription emits an error "must provide a valid category ID"
Should also be fixed with the next deploy.

Answer A: Error message contains a bad link for reporting the error
Should be fixed now, I've pointed the link here instead.

Comment Post #74805 Aye, notifications are on the list to look at at some point, as is login (though that's less critical, once you hit "remember me").

Comment Post #74805 Technically there is a top-level user profile, and it even has the SE account ID stored against it. What it doesn't do at the moment is auto-transfer content from new sites when they start up.

Comment Post #74805 This might be something we do at some point, and we'll certainly keep it in mind... but it's not going to be any time soon; we have something that _works_ here even if it's not optimal yet, so there are more important things to work on first before we come back to do a polish pass. codidact.com is ju...

Comment Post #74790 You can ping multiple people here, but you have to use the full username :) I can see an argument for opt-out, certainly. Not sure how it'd work yet, but we're a while off coming back to this feature so we've got time to think about how it fits in. For now, I've added a setting so that it can be disa...

Comment Post #74790 There's also the question of what happens if you want to start over and not have your SE content attached to you on some sites but not others... I can't immediately see why you'd want to do it, but it's plausible that some folks might. That's not to excuse the lousy experience there - this is still v...
