Q&A What defines an "interesting" question?

It's a pretty low bar right now... "interesting" is defined as anything with a score over a threshold, which is set in site settings. It currently defaults to 1, but can be changed at any time.

Q&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 ...

Q&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 ...

Q&A No button to edit or suggest edits on articles

Fixed, thanks! The system was actually working exactly as designed, but articles were marked as not being publicly editable. I've flipped that over again now, so you should see links as normal.

Q&A Cloudflare breaks typing tag names (results in HTTP 403, ultimately preventing posting questions) when accessing Codidact over Tor

So this isn't specific to Tor. Cloudflare scans all incoming requests and analyses their risk; if they suspect the request could be suspicious then they'll issue a challenge page, like the one you'...

Q&A All of my own SE sources questions and answers give me 500 errors

Looks like user IDs didn't get changed over properly - not quite sure why, but I'll have a poke at it. I've fixed it manually for now.

Are you the one true Dani? There were three other users named Dani who were imported from SE. Since the software picks the first when sending ping notifications, you didn't get them. Since they're ...

Q&A Filtering non SE questions?

Nice idea! This is implemented in the latest build, which is rolling out now. There's a new Native button on category post lists that lets you bring non-imported posts to the top.

Q&A Trying to edit an answer results in internal server error; edit gets recorded, but not promoted to current revision

This is most likely something to do with a data import that's running right at the moment and taking up a lot of database time. Ideally we'd be able to switch the sites into read-only mode, but we ...
