This is now fixed, along with a bunch of other overflow bugs (thanks Zoe!). Here's a screenshot from this post on our dev server to demonstrate:
Search results can now be sorted by activity in addition to the other options. We've also made the order of the options consistent: Activity, Age, Score on both search results and the category pos...
This feels like it should be a simple matter of an ability check, like we do in many other places when deciding what to show to a specific user. However, this particular link is coming from an abi...
Clearer distinction between Guidance and Site Info (Even if we make the main page directly editable as suggested in another answer, there'll be a default for communities that don't want to rework ...
I tried to add the button, so that either the vote or the button would advance, but that turned out to be complicated so I've instead amended the tour text there to add "After you vote, the tour wi...
In addition to whatever we do about the error, should we add a button/link/whatever for "share these results" on the results page? That way, if you meant to share your posts (specifically) with so...
Moderators can see a list of all deleted posts (most recent first). This is one of the links in the "Moderator Tools" section that mods (and admins) see in the sidebar: (There is a second link,...
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...
We've updated the help here on Meta -- where most cases of potential confusion will arise -- to include the tip about using blockquotes. As noted in other answers, trying to add borders or shadows...
Testing: Downvotes Minimum upvotes to stay above 40% 1 1 2 1 3 2 4 3 5 3 6 ...
Ordering within category Topics can be ordered within a category if you edit them to add sequence numbers. In the absence of explicit sequencing, they appear to be alphabetical by title. For the...
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...
I've updated the feature-request tag description to incorporate the suggestions in this answer. Thanks for putting that together, ArtOfCode!
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...
We just deployed a fix for this (noticed as part of investigating another bug). Please try again.
We can't grant the ability broadly without also granting destructive abilities, as another answer says. If any community wants more channels under its section, admins can create them -- just let u...
Help topics are static content, so adding the status of your own abilities there is not feasible. The links for the individual abilities in the help are to the same pages as the links in the user-...
