Missed that rule when I was working out what could/couldn't be voted on five years ago, and apparently nobody's noticed it yet... Fixed now - thanks!
This is already how it works. Those red/green bars in post lists are driven by a Wilson score for the post based on the numbers of up and downvotes. Post & answer sorting is also based on these...
As aCVn has already correctly said, those tags get stripped by the server when it's rendering post markdown. I'm currently working on changing the Markdown rendering systems over to gems that supp...
Simply omit the space, and ping @UserName. I'm not 100% sure whether having characters after it breaks the notification, but I tend to avoid it to be on the safe side. Comments are due for an overh...
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...
This is [status-completed] and will be deployed soon. We use Redis to save drafts, since we already use it for other things. Drafts are kept for 7 days; if the post is edited after you start editin...
This is [status-completed]. Signing in on one site signs you in across the network; likewise, signing out signs you out everywhere. This doesn't preclude the use of multiple accounts, you just can'...
Apparently there was a bug in the rep recalc script. Still not entirely sure why, but I've solved it and re-run the script. Rep counts should be correct now.
If you forget your email address, contact support and we'll be able to assist. Allowing people to guess the email address for an account is not something that can be done securely and in a way that...
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 pos...
There's no built-in way to do this, but you're welcome to join our Discord server and we can set up a private chat there.
I've fixed this in the design framework - once the CDN's cache updates, you should see this start working properly.
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 ...
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...
Nothing earth-shattering, really, just what made sense to me. Markdown is technically a markup language, which feels more correct to me in a monospace font. (Plus I also find monospace easier to re...
Looks like we were assuming everything in the hot posts list was a question. I've changed it to use a post-type-aware helper now; this should be fixed, pending deploy.
The codebase for codidact.com is not the same as the software that runs the Q&A sites, so there are a few disparities like this one. I've just added the icon there too, you should see it appear...
Yes they can. Just added, rolling out in the next build.
This is completed - the comment input field is focused automatically once you hit "Add a comment".
With today's deploy this is [status-completed]. We now display post scores as up/down splits instead of a total, and answers are sorted by a score calculated based on vote counts, instead of by a s...
There is a link in the footer to the privacy policy. The TL;DR is that: We only use your data when necessary We use a self-hosted solution for analytics so your data doesn't leave our servers ...
In a URL of https://yoursite.codidact.com/help/topic, only the topic part is the slug. I've added some inline help to the form you use to create a help page, which will go live with the next build.
I'm [status-deferring] this one. Twitter is there because it was easy to implement, and because I know how the structure works. Linking to other social media is an idea that's been thrown around be...
Should be fixed, pending next deploy.
