A: Images fail to load when previewed or saved Should be fixed now - the arcanities of nginx, ActiveStorage, and AWS conspired against us on this migration, but they've now each been shown a roll of duct tape and told firmly to keep themselves in line. (more) |

Good thought - I use 1Password, which can scan the QR code itself, so I've never needed this. I've done this in the code, just pending next deploy. (more) |

Changes to the Codidact Privacy Policy We've made a small update to our privacy policy related to a third-party library. While editing, we also restored a link that had been accidentally left out of the original document, causing some confusion. In order to accept donations, we use a third-party payment system, Stripe. When we added t... (more) |

@#53890 thanks, that's helpful. I _think_ this is all because I forgot to turn the CF proxy back on after the server work, which I've now done so this should resolve itself. (As for those URLs, it goes `site.codidact.org/users/USER_ID/avatar/SIZE.png`.) (more) |

I can't reproduce this. If you click on the lock icon and into whatever details it'll give you, does it tell you _what_ resource exactly is insecure? (more) |

A: Assets return 404 [status-bydesign] There is a current known issue with the icons not responding to clicks: see this meta post. For the moment, click the whitespace around the icon to open your notifications - we're working on getting this fixed. Any assets under `/assets/community` are community-specific CSS or... (more) |

@#8082 haven't tracked down the source, but we may already have a fix in the pipeline - if not there's some more digging to do. (more) |

A: MathJax in profiles displays differently depending on community I'm not sure there's a lot we can do about this, other than potentially adding a warning if MathJax is enabled. It's hard to reliably detect MathJax in a post, and even harder to reliably remove it - so disabling or content-triggered warnings aren't realistically doable. We could add a simple warn... (more) |

More just looking for a general opinion. I was leaning towards option 1 or 2 as well - the current design is a bit odd with similar things in separate places, one link and one button - option 1/2 unifies it a bit. (more) |

A: Potentially misleading plus symbol with "follow new" link Some ideas: Two buttons. Primary "Start new comment thread" outlined blue, secondary "Follow new comment threads" outlined gray". or Same as previous, but the primary now has a plus icon and the secondary a bell icon or (more) |

Yep, confirmed. I noticed this last night but didn't have time to fix it - took an annoyingly long time to track down to something this simple! (more) |

A: Main and subheadings are almost the same size, but not in the edit preview [status-norepro] If you use your browser's Inspect Element feature, you should be able to find the computed font sizes on each. On all browsers on my end I see h1 as 27.2px and h2 as 25px. Admittedly that's not much difference! (more) |

A: Details tag requires an internal blank line to render markdown [status-bydesign] In so far as there is a Markdown spec, this is part of it: you can't mix HTML and Markdown. If you're formatting using HTML tags, Markdown parsers will generally ignore Markdown in the same block (might only apply to block-level Markdown - can't remember off the top of my head). ...

Codidact has moved to new servers Ever since we got set up with bank accounts, one of our priorities for our new funding has been to migrate our servers. For context, all Codidact communities are currently running on a single server provided by one of our volunteers at their own expense, and have been since the start. Now that we hav... (more) |

A: Does the community have any mechanism to tackle serial (emotional) downvoting? Yes. There is some tooling built into the software to help identify serial voting, and when identified the Codidact team can remove the votes in question and reset rep counts, and moderators can of course suspend offending users. Codidact developers can also run manual queries in the database for ... (more) |

@#8049 It's certainly a possibility. This was the easiest option to get set up so we could make something available, but there are ways of doing that with our existing processor that we can look into. (more) |

@#8049 While that's not totally impossible, it's not feasible with our current setup, unfortunately. codidact.com and codidact.org are both simple client-side sites with no backend systems - the communities are the only place we have the systems in place to handle the donations. (more) |

The Codidact Foundation: now with added bank accounts! Ever since we formed the Codidact Foundation almost a year ago, we’ve been trying to get our financial situation sorted. As a community run non-profit, our intention has always been to avoid the shenanigans and profiteering of for-profit companies, and to be as open and honest as possible with the pe... (more) |
