@ArtOfCode, sounds like tag search within current category? That seems doable. We'll need to add the concept of sticky/pinned tags per category. (more) |

Part of the issue, I think, is that "show more comments" remains even after you've clicked it and are seeing them all. Ultimately comments will be threaded, which should help -- you'll be able to expand or collapse threads rather than having to weave through conversations all at the top level. (more) |

A category can support more than one post type, so if you had a resource library (or whatever you want to call it), you could have a mix of wiki-style articles and Q&A where each answer fully covers one approach. (more) |

Instead of a blog you could have a resource library. Blog posts are usually individual people's work and can be opinionated and even somewhat tangential, while a resource library focuses more on objectivity and presumably has more community ownership (like a wiki). Or maybe you're looking for those ... (more) |

@Mattdm, is it meaningful to have a site that covers both photo and video and that has categories like "technique", "art", "production", and "gear"? In each of those you'd see both photo and video questions, but it promotes the broad *types* you want to call out to categories. But there needs to be... (more) |

@Mattdm, these are exactly the kinds of things we want to figure out *before* launching. You are not coming across as argumentative at all, and I hope you don't interpret the feedback you're getting that way either. (more) |

And I agree with the goal of supporting artistic questions and not just technical ones. I think that broadens the site's appeal (at least to this rank beginner, who, granted, might not be your target audience). (more) |

| Comment | Post #74833 |
Thank you both for explaining the background. If we have separate categories for photo/video/CV, then within the first two at least we'd still have a mix of technical and artistic, right? Will the former drown out the latter? Or is the idea that each of these categories would be small enough that the... (more) |

What you said about categories matches our design intent. I don't know what the struggles were with video and CV alongside still photography on SE; was tagging not enough to handle that? We can give you mandatory tags (must choose at least one from this set); are there questions that wouldn't fit t... (more) |

| Comment | Post #74831 |
Welcome! A question to help you think about categories (I have no domain expertise to apply). Think of *categories* as broad groupings; it sounds like still photography and video are different enough from each other for this, for instance. But you also have tags, and can even use the same tag set acr... (more) |

I do agree that we need to not offer the option on sites where there's nothing to connect to. Not all communities here will have associated SE sites. (more) |

The "meta meta" page is going to go away, yes. We just need to make sure we've removed all the pre-category code that assumed that every site has a meta -- don't want to break this site in the process of yanking that out. (more) |

What about cases where somebody has hidden specific site accounts on the network profile? If we could reliably get to all accounts I'd agree with you about just using the network profile; that would be much easier for everyone. Maybe the answer is to support both -- use the network profile in gener... (more) |

If anybody with SEO know-how wants to join us and help with that, please speak up! The team we have now is focused on some critical-path features, but the current team doesn't have to be the only people working on it. (more) |

@MaskedMan not your fault; we just added that "don't post here" language *because* the software made it too easy to end up here. Every *other* site we set up will have a meta, so it's baked in for now, but Meta doesn't need a meta... (more) |

Are you doing this here on Meta, or on one of our other sites (Writing or Outdoors)? I'll have to check, but it might not work on Meta because we don't have an associated SE site that we want to import posts from -- but if that's the case then we should have a better response than this error, so tha...

Do members of the Code Golf communities (SE and/or TA) want to have one here too, like to be able to compare options? If the community is happy on TopAnswers then I wouldn't want to interfere with that, but we're happy to set up a community here if that's what the people involved want. (more) |

I'll leave the main part of your question for someone who can speak more authoritatively, but on your related question: yes, you will be able to link your Codidact Outdoors account to your SE Outdoors account and thus claim your content here. (more) |

@Charlie great, thanks. We're going to run your data import overnight; ArtOfCode or I should be in touch tomorrow with an update for you. (more) |

@Charlie working on it. What content do you want to import? From your meta discussion, looks like all non-closed questions (and their answers of course)? (more) |

@Charlie, it looks like you've got enough buy-in there to give it a shot, and that the people supporting the idea also support appointing you as a moderator. So we can do that, and if any TGO mods come over we can add them (that's what we did on Writing), and later y'all can have an election or some... (more) |

Welcome! From the posts you linked, it sounds like several once-active users including one moderator would be interested in trying an alternative. We'd be happy to set up a site for you here, if you (or someone else you bring in) takes point on "rallying the troops" (so to speak) and talking with u... (more) |

@wrp I don't know if this is going to be a canonical source; I was trying to answer a challenge I've received once and I assume we'll receive again. I've added some details to the question; I'm also happy to see this turn into a true community Q&A, though I don't think we have a special status for t... (more) |

@einpoklum, QPixel is the name of the software package currently running this site. It's hosted by the Codidact project and uses a Codidact URL; when the Codidact software is ready we'll move all sites that we're hosting using QPixel onto Codidact instead. The Codidact software doesn't exist yet bu... (more) |

But, more broadly, if you've got a group of users who want to build a community here, please let us know. We don't want to just create sites for the sake of creating sites, but if there are users waiting, let's talk! (more) |

Welcome! We haven't worked out a formal process for requesting communities. In the short term, for QPixel, the focus is on communities that need something sooner than Codidact will be ready, since this is an interim solution. Some SE communities are in trouble after recent events; we want to help ... (more) |

@mithrandir24601 I worry that that would add confusion. Meta is already "another place"; meta meta even more so. We can use a QPixel tag for questions that are specifically about this platform, and then when we migrate to the Codidact platform we can archive those. How does that sound? (more) |
