Articles can be made closable in configuration (does not require a code change), but it's a global, network-wide change, so we'd need to make sure that doesn't have negative consequences for any of...
Being mindful of space usage before you get to the results you came for, we added a condensed set of hints, like this:
I'm guessing that this is due to timing, as you said in the question. I don't think it's worth trying to write code to find and fix these; if you notice them, feel free to flag and we can clean th...
I'm not sure why the button doesn't appear in the header on mobile. But even if it did (in a wide-enough window), it might not always appear -- some things drop out when space is tight. Given tha...
I think this is going to require more thought, because we need to do something that works for all instances, not just ours. Our browser titles have several elements: favicon (this is configura...
Good point. Ideally that button just wouldn't be there at all if posting isn't allowed, but we never planned for that case. I don't know what it would take to either remove it or cause it to link...
I like the idea of adding a way to "co-sign" a comment -- the "me too" part of this proposal. I don't think we should also add "disagree" using that mechanism, though. Disagreement should be expl...
We had a still-undiagnosed problem involving (waves hands vaguely, sorry) involving DNS records and/or Cloudflare for our .org subdomains, including collab. We were able to correct the problem fai...
This is fixed now. Here's a current screenshot of the same example:
Thanks for this report. The behavior is powerful; we should update the documentation, not limit search. I've updated the search topic in the help center to describe how the operators actually wor...
Summarizing some discussion in Discord (Communities server, network-town-hall): the problem wasn't trichoplax or an IP issue but, rather, a code block that contains a script tag. Cloudflare is det...
We definitely want this to be possible from the in-page view, without clicking through to the thread. This issue is even on the roadmap we laid out at the beginning of the year -- it's important. ...
Question previews were added after some user requests; we'd been planning to eventually do a fancier "expand in place" design where you could use a control to see the beginning of the question and ...
It appears that new answers are no longer being reported as new activity on the question list and bumping questions. Here's an annotated screenshot: https://meta.codidact.com/posts/280005 shows...
I think what you might be looking for is "resolved" -- you want to indicate that a thread has been handled, but you want to leave the door open for feedback. I would expect a hypothetical "resolve...
From the help: filtering by category To filter by category, you will need to know the unique numeric id for that category. This can be found by looking at the url shown when you click to view a...
I went through the donation workflow, starting on Software, and donate/success is working for me now. I don't know if you hit something transient or if there's some other difference between us. (...
I brought this one up internally and we all agree that yes, it's confusing. Unfortunately, it's also a complicated change; we don't track tag history now, and adding that would make the code compl...
This is (newly) happening for me today, using Firefox 93.0 on Windows 10. I haven't been using Codidact a lot on this machine lately, but I have used it in recent weeks without seeing this problem...
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 a...
I'm not sure how intentional it is, but it's a known change to fix a related bug. Until recently, if you followed a direct link to an answer that wasn't on the first page of the post, that action ...
It looks like this has changed; I just saw this: I'm inferring that the ad is now sensitive to the type of post being linked; I'd like to confirm that with the developers before marking this sta...
You can now set a preference to disable autosaving. See the "preferences" tab on your profile.
We've added a "preferences" tab to the user profile. There are global (network-wide) and per-community preferences. We've made keyboard shortcuts a global preference. We don't yet have "global, ...
We've implemented one part of this (that seems to have consensus and no objections): the tags. I've updated the proposal guidelines, created the three "needs" tags, and retagged many proposals. (...
