Just saw your update. Weird! I had to use my work computer to try this on Windows and I don't control the DNS there, so I can't exactly replicate your situation, sorry. (more) |

I just tried, also using Firefox 93.0 on Windows (Win 10, if it matters), and it worked for me. Is it still failing for you? (more) |

Oh, I like that -- highlight the tag, not the whole post section. (more) |

That's one possibility. If it also has a favorite tag, though, the person might want to see it. So it seems like we need to choose one of:
1. Favorite overrides ignored (you see it as a favorite)
2. Ignored overrides favorite (you don't see it or it's grayed out)
3. Neither applies and you see ... (more) |

I don't think there's a specific reason we didn't, other than that no one was asking about it at the time. What should happen if a question has both a tag you list as a favorite and one you ignore? (more) |

We definitely want to have some indication of tag-based domain knowledge, whether that's badges or something else. (One idea would be that, on answers to questions, the usercard could indicate this state for applicable tags on that question -- e.g. this is a C++ question, so right there under the an... (more) |

Yeah, somebody's already working on adding a donation button or link to the .org page, I'm pretty sure. (Separate repo, because the foundation is not the network though there's a ton of overlap.) (more) |

That's a good thought. Now that we've got something in place at all, we can look into adding recurring donations. I hadn't thought of that. (more) |

@#8045 I think the first comment was about .com, not .org (.com = list of communities). Or `donate.codidact.com` sounds like a good approach too. Or if all of this is too much hassle, we can presumably massage the wording on the page to be clear that you're supporting the whole project and not just... (more) |

A: Reacting without signing in error The "react" control is now not shown if a user is not logged in. Vote buttons still are; they provide context for the score and, further, voting buttons are widespread on the Internet and people are used to them not working if not signed in, so this should not be surprising here.

Ah, thanks. Yes, that I can reproduce. So when you tab out of the textbox the button lights up; looks like we need to do whatever check we're doing when you click out for tab too. (more) |

Yes! I'm really proud of everybody involved -- our community members and leaders (without whom we would be in trouble), the team building the platform, all the people who help us make it better by testing, poking at things, and asking "why?" and other questions. We've been able to do some significa... (more) |

Happy Birthday, Codidact! It feels like we celebrated Codidact’s first birthday only yesterday and that Codidact was founded just a few days ago, but here we are.

I can't reproduce now, using Chrome. Can you? Specifically, I started a 14-character comment and then tried the following tests:
(1) shift: button not enabled;
(2) shift-enter: button enabled, which is correct because that's the 15th character.
I then removed a character (so down to 13) and... (more) |

A: Get a [faq] tag, mods! There doesn't seem to be consensus for all communities, but any community that wants new moderator-only tags, FAQ or otherwise, can have them -- just let us know (on your community's meta). The category definition includes a place to add such tags. (On our earliest communities, before we had some o... (more) |

A comment thread was archived because it looked like the changes discussed in it were made. I might have misunderstood. You can still see it; you have to click on "show more" under the other threads. (more) |

Sounds good, thanks. I archived it because I wasn't sure if it provided context for edits, should anybody be looking at the post history later. Probably could have deleted, but I took the less-destructive option, which still gets the thread out of the way. (more) |

Oh, I'm sorry -- I mistook the "I have edited to explain" to refer to a *post* edit, so I (and a flagger) thought the whole thing was obsolete. Does this thread cover it, or should I un-archive the other one? (more) |

I'd say a combination. Moderators can suspend the ability right now if they want to; maybe we didn't do a good-enough job of communicating that with them. But some sort of automated traffic control also sounds like a good idea. (more) |

Maybe I'm in a minority, but I'd rather have the tags in the title. When I go to a question page I read from the top down, but the tags are at the bottom. (I once proposed moving tags to right after the title, but it didn't go over well.) I don't know why SO has that policy or whether it's been di... (more) |

That's an interesting idea -- a sort of "share the space" measure, as opposed to an absolute threshold. A busy community can more easily absorb a few bad questions. (more) |

A: Hobbling of users who consistently post low-quality content It sounds like we want to temporarily revoke a person's ability to make lots of posts when recent quality is an issue. The Participate Everywhere ability allows one to post without limit. Nominally, the requirement to earn it is: > To earn this ability, you need to have roughly 75% of your pos... (more) |

I mocked up an [example for site proposals](https://a.dev.codidact.org/posts/313) on the test server -- take a look. Note that reactions are per post type, *not* per post type per category; I created a "proposal" type that's like questions, so it could have its own reactions. (more) |

*Who* voted isn't public, but the fact that you *got* votes is public.
Reactions are signed, so there's no expectation of privacy there. (more) |

| Comment | Post #284494 |
According to the [announcement](https://meta.codidact.com/posts/284455), that's possible now. I'm not sure, but it might need an admin assist to turn on reactions for other post types. Let us know what you'd like for your communities and we'll try to help. Or for here on Meta, I guess make a meta ... (more) |

A: Allow a user to edit a threaded comment's title after the threaded comment has been created I think it's reasonable for the person who created the thread to be able to edit the title so long as the only comments are from that user. As soon as there's a comment from someone else, though, there's the chance that changing the thread title can affect context for those comments (or even can be ... (more) |

This question came up in the earlier design discussions, but it looks like we never resolved it. We want to give some indication that reactions might be obsolete, but we don't want a trivial edit to cause this effect (fixing a typo doesn't make the answer not outdated, usually).
I like the idea o... (more) |
