Answer A: "Body is too short" error when posting middle-click-pasted answer with no changes
Fix pushed. When you save a post, we don't take what you typed into the textbox and convert it to markdown on the server, if we can avoid it (we still have to if the client has JS disabled). There's this live preview below the textbox where the HTML has already been calculated for us, so we might ...

Answer A: Don't add duplicate notifications if an unread notification for the same event type and parent post already exists
I thought we did this already, so I had a look. Turns out we were using the wrong link to check for duplicates, which I've updated. You should find you only get one notification per comment thread when there are any number of new comments now.

Answer A: How can I effortlessly spawn new, unused URLs to the same question on Codidact?
This is not something we support, technically or ethically. You're more than welcome to promote content on Codidact communities elsewhere, but you must follow the rules of wherever it is you're posting; we're not in the business of circumventing rules for our own gain.

Answer A: Is it possible to delete account community-wise?
This can be done by a developer. Ping us an email to support@ and someone will handle this for you. At present, this will mean that any content associated with your account on that site will be unlinked from your account and attributed to System, which will not be reversible later. We do have some de...

Answer A: Shouldn't the Mobile Sign In also be removed from the profile page when you are on the phone?
This is by design. You might already be signed in on your phone or tablet, but what if you want to sign in on another one? We drop this from the top menu because it's less likely if you're already on a mobile device, but there should still always be a path to access this.

Answer A: A letter didn't bold in suggested edit page
This is displaying fine in all browser tests that I've been able to run. Given that others are reporting this fine too, I'm inclined to suggest there's something janky with your system, rather than with Codidact.

Answer A: MathJax isn't highlighted when selected
Unfortunately, this isn't something we have control over. It's down to the MathJax library and how it renders the math. If you look at the page HTML, by default it renders math by putting every character in a CSS `::before` psuedo-element, which aren't selectable; likewise, if you change the renderer...

Comment Post #281013 @#53696 this has been declined as-is; let's let that stand for the record. If you'd like to re-propose a different community _about_ law, that's different - please create a new proposal post for it.

Comment Post #282348 This is partly intentional. I've just commented on Lundin's answer too: part of the design of this system is intended to create a little bit more friction to commenting, in the hope that they become less of a "put your instant reaction here" and more of a thought-out feedback mechanism.

Comment Post #282346 Part of the intent of this change is to create _slightly_ more friction to commenting. We've seen both here and on SE that comments being easy to leave makes people less likely to think about what they're writing. Opening a new page for a full comment thread is just that little bit of friction that m...

Answer A: Markdown does not always seem to work
If you mix HTML and Markdown, you have to clearly separate them, which means leaving a clear blank line break between HTML and Markdown sections. This works: ```plain Bold text ``` This doesn't: ```plain Bold text ``` and likewise for any other tags.

Answer A: send mail for new community
We don't do a whole lot on the email notifications front, really. The only emails we send automatically from the application are account emails, plus any subscriptions you create. Beyond that, we don't really do emails &mdash; both because it takes quite a bit of developer time to set up, which is a ...

Answer A: Questions themselves are not the first Codidact hits on Google
All our posts are indexed and have applicable meta tags in the page. Search Console confirms that we are showing up in Google search results. Our biggest problem is our still-small size: the more inbound links there are to pages on Codidact sites, the more Google likes us, but inbound links develo...

Comment Post #281407 Dev here confirming. API is in the plans, but there's a whoooole load in the backlog. I'd like to get to it sooner rather than later, but it's got to fit in among more user-facing stuff as well, and we have limited developer time. Definitely plenty of scope for folks who want to use it to help specif...

Comment Post #280151 That's... pretty old, in browser terms. We support the current and previous major versions of each major browser, so Safari support is 13 and 14.
