Answer A: Can comment input fields be vertically scalable?
The comment box is now resizable; drag the control in the lower right corner down to make the area bigger. Because comments can include newlines, wide Unicode characters, and probably other unpredictable things, choosing a size to fit 500 ASCII characters in a paragraph wouldn't be a complete solu...

Question New preference: show the icon for SE imports (off by default)
Three of Codidact's early communities did large-scale imports of content from Stack Exchange, and at the request of some community members, we added an icon to those questions on question lists. Over time, some have felt that the utility of that marker has dropped off; after many months, both import...

Comment Post #281208 Ok, it's the angle brackets in the `script` tag in your comment; when I removed those, the comment posted. I'm not sure if we accept HTML in comments or if we should be escaping all angle brackets, or something else I haven't thought of. (If we accept any HTML, I imagine the escaping approach would...

Comment Post #281208 Test: Thanks; must I use the `const url = "http://example.com"; fetch(url` code? I already use the code in the same webpage I send data from (i.e. the code comes between a `script` tag in the very same webpage that the data is sent from). In other words, I should paste the **XHR/Fetch** code in the ...

Comment Post #281208 Can you add the comment to your post? It sounds like there's something special about *that* comment, since comments in general work, so we'll need to see what you're trying to post in order to be able to debug it. Thanks.

Comment Post #281204 It still happens in Safari 12.1.1. Whether that's a browser we support, I don't know -- just commenting to indicate that you're not seeing it working because we fixed a bug.

Answer A: A "Super user" like community to include Q&As about software applications usage
Summary: I'm breaking this out from this answer so it can be voted on separately. It sounds like we have consensus, but it's a little hard to tell. > Power User Codidact is a community where computer enthusiasts (power users) ask and answer questions about software and hardware usage.

Answer A: Ad templates don't work with Articles
The bug with ads for individual articles is fixed. The ad templates for random posts (at all, or from a specific category) apply some selection criteria, so we don't accidentally promote poorly-received posts, closed questions, etc. I'm not sure what those criteria are, but according to a comment...

This is now fixed for new tag-only edits (example), but we don't have a way to go back and fix older history entries.

Answer A: Cancelation prompt is unintuitive
The behavior of the dialogue has now been fixed -- clicking "ok" abandons your changes and returns you to the page you were on, and clicking "cancel" puts you back in the editor (with your changes still there). We're relying on the browser to present the confirmation and the interfaces there don't s...

Answer A: Can a moderator promote Codidact for free on Reddit?
We don't seem to have active Redditors (people with the track record that would prevent being labeled as spammers), but I'm all for responsible promotion! Do we have within our community an established Reddit user with a good track record who'd be willing to work with us on this?

Answer A: Why not broaden Electrical Engineering to Engineering?
The scope of the Electrical Engineering community is up to them. If you want to propose changes, you should ask on their meta. We don't impose scope on communities; we allow communities to define their own boundaries. The EE community was specifically proposed as EE and not general. The proposa...

Answer A: Advertise on Stack Exchange?
SE sites (that aren't in beta) have "community ads", which are ads submitted by users on that site for things they think will be of interest to other users on that site. Some use them to promote SE-specific things like sandboxes or weekly chats. Some use them to promote external resources of variou...

Answer A: How can I filter out tags in my search?
Tag search is now completed. The help isn't updated yet, but: to use a tag in a search, use the syntax `tag:tagname`. You can use the `-` operator with it, same as for other search terms. Searching for two tags is an AND. I tried your search and it returns both questions and answers. It looks ...

Comment Post #280165 @seth.wagenman I would expect that most questions on a biology community wouldn't involve sexual issues at all. For those that do, I would expect participants to take the same dispassionate, clinical, science-based approach that professionals in the field do. Not being a professional in the field I d...
