The challenge with making modals appear above if there's not room below is that they might then cover important content. If this happened to the Flag modal, for example, it might cover most of the...
If a subscription doesn't have a name, the code generates a default name on the fly to show in the list. These generated names are not stored anywhere and are not guaranteed to stay the same over ...
We've mitigated this problem by removing the right column from all of the profile sub-pages. Except on the main profile page (where a right column remains), this column is about the community or c...
The Policy and Legal sections in the Help Center are policies set by the providers of the network -- in this case, the Codidact Foundation. The Qpixel repository includes "stubs" for these pages f...
When you submit a flag we don't refresh the page, and so when you flag again the flag modal doesn't "know" about your previous flag yet. After a refresh, you'll get the "you've previously flagged ...
As noted in Mithical's answer, the forum was for early bootstrapping, before we had this network up and running. It used .org, not .com, to try to make that distinction a little clearer. After we...
A step toward this: if you choose "copy link" on a top-level post, you now have two options, the raw link and a Markdown version. The Markdown version uses the post title as the link text. So it'...
There are sometimes unfortunate differences in the preview and final rendering, due to having to use different libraries for client-side and server-side rendering. I don't know if there's anything...
We've added some better guidance in the UI, including the score ranges (0-1) and a link to the scoring help. The layout isn't as nice as it would be if the work had been done by someone with a dee...
We have removed the "needs author's attention" flag, which I believe addresses the remaining issues raised here. Marking status-complete; please let us know if we missed anything.
This is a good suggestion, and I thought "oh, just adding another button there -- that might be easy enough that even I can do it!". And then I realized there's something else we ought to address ...
Proposal: If a question has at least one tag that you've marked as a favorite, it's highlighted (as now). If a question has at least one tag that you've marked as ignore, it's de-emphasized som...
As a starting point for discussion, I suggest that the logged-out view not show any posts that are closed or have a score worse than that of +0/-1. We're not trying to pretend that downvotes neve...
I've updated the feature-request tag description to incorporate the suggestions in this answer. Thanks for putting that together, ArtOfCode!
We improved this a while ago but the bug didn't get closed so I didn't come update here, sorry. The counts are still totals across all relevant categories, because filtering for the current catego...
We just deployed a fix for this (noticed as part of investigating another bug). Please try again.
We fixed the inconsistency a different way. Instead of computing the numbers for all threads at page-load time, we still report the full number of comments, but when you expand the comment thread ...
Please ignore this answer (if you see it). We need to test a specific scenario involving, ironic, "last activity".
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 unpred...
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-re...
There is now a link to the dashboard at the bottom of the site switcher.
A rep recalculation restored the 1 point to everybody. Whether accounts should start at 1 or 0 is a separate question, but they're now consistent again.
All cases of this mismatch on the network should now be fixed. Thanks for the reports.
Test cases (all look fine in the preview): Link text edited to include period. Link text contains no punctuation. Other punctuation too? What about comma, or exclamation point! -- Copying tex...
