@ManishS we have MathJax (including in titles) for communities that want it (such as https://math.codidact.com). I don't know if we have "pure" LaTeX absent MathJax. We don't turn on MathJax everywhere because it introduces some noticeable lag in rendering, but we're happy to turn it on for any co... (more) |

Yes, answer tags don't make sense for all communities, and also not for all answers even in communities that use them. Answers should use tags when they need to distinguish a specific case from a general case (e.g. this answer to a python question is for python 2 but not python 3). (more) |

A "latest version" policy when answering makes sense at the time. Now fast-forward a few years when C++17 isn't the latest version any more, or imagine that the community existed back when C++11 was current. Now you have a bunch of answers and only dates can guide you. Would it help to be able to ... (more) |

| Question | — |
Should we be able to tag answers? On some of our communities, it would be helpful to be able to label answers systematically: - On Code Golf, by language. - On Software Development, Power Users, or Linux Systems, by specific version/platform/library -- for example, if the answer to a C++ question is different for C++11 than C++...

Post edited: Proposal includes a scope, so if there's consensus that part's good. A short summary seems easy based on that. The big thing we need is people. |

Meta is just the example; this would be used on all the communities (with each community being able to customize that orange banner area along with its logo). (more) |

Thanks for checking. The other possibility was that *we* were caching it, though I'd expect us to refresh that at the same time we check/update abilities. So looks like a bug. Thanks for the report. (more) |

Is this still happening? (Trying to rule out caching.) Also, congratulations! (more) |

That was a widely-reported bug; I don't see the harm in making the resolution a little more clear to people who are looking at some of those reports. (more) |

I wonder if the image-upload shortcut could be (or was meant to be) Ctrl-U, as opposed to Ctrl-shift-U, and if we could be stricter about that. Or maybe image upload could get a different shortcut. (more) |

@celtschk thanks for pointing that out. I wonder if there's a library or something that already implements this entity-to-rendering (or entity-to-Unicode) translation. (more) |

I like where your proposal is going. Personally, I'd drop rep and put the hamburger menu back -- people using phones expect a hamburger menu and know what it means. By dropping the rep out we can make room and still even show some banner. (more) |

A: Taking our design to the next level: feedback wanted More phone feedback -- smaller layout issues. For a screenshot see this answer ('cause wow is that huge and I don't want to do that on a second answer). - I'm glad to see that the "filter results" button is visible and not just lost to "that column goes to the bottom in a responsive design". (No... (more) |

At default zoom this is what I see (in Chrome, in case it matters): Screenshot screenshot Focusing on the question list (for this answer): - With the amount of stuff at the top and the size of the titles, I see only one question.

A: Should HTML entities be supported in titles? We reviewed this and have decided to leave titles as text-only, but we have a workaround that we hope isn't too difficult. To support HTML entities we'd have to run titles through HTML rendering, which adds an opening for security risks. Sure, we have those with the body already, but this would b... (more) |

One of the goals is a design that works on all platforms. On my phone, the layout in this answer is too wide to be legible -- if the design fits the text is too small, and if I zoom to get readable text things don't fit. I'm not seeing what you're seeing when I visit Reddit, so I can't test what th... (more) |

@Istiak it's a responsive design. I tried it on my Android phone and while there are some things I'd change (will write an answer later), it worked for me. If you're seeing a problem on mobile please let us know; one of the goals here is to have a design that works everywhere, without customized v... (more) |

Thanks @corporat - that's what I assumed from context, but hadn't heard the specific term VTT before so just checking. :-) (more) |

I don't think the footer omission is an intended change; it's just that this mockup only uses the first handful of questions to demonstrate the changes and then stops. The footer isn't going away. (more) |

Some people use the same avatar everywhere -- Google, Twitter, Facebook, here, etc -- and we shouldn't impede that. It's already annoying that some sites use circles and some squares, making it harder to make something that works everywhere. Telling people "oh, you need to resize (etc) your image f... (more) |

@Moshi this is great feedback; could I persuade you to write some answers? People might want to discuss and vote on what you say about tag styling, tag filters, and post score, for example. Oh, and I totally missed the round avatar -- no idea if that's an intentional change, but worth asking about!... (more) |

Taking our design to the next level: feedback wanted Our team has been exploring some ideas to improve Codidact's design. We've wanted to improve the visual design for a while, and we also have a lot of other usability changes we'd like to make. We want visual design and function to complement each other, creating a more intuitive and pleasant experi... (more) |

Oh wait. The top-voted answer here already proposes "human-mediated", which is the point I was meandering around. In other words, yes I think RPGs that happen to be played online, with a human GM and human players, are solidly in scope already. (more) |

Welcome @corporat ! I'm happy to see the recent interest in this proposal. By VTT do you mean virtual RPGs or virtual games more broadly (like board games)? Personally, I think so much of RPGs is about the *play* (roleplaying, rules, story development, etc) that the exact venue is kind of secondar... (more) |

I'd be inclined to put the wiki behind a "more" link that does an in-page load, so you can see the full wiki and the questions together but don't have to. (more) |
