Comment Post #281882 While you're working on the portal, you could make a simple “contact us” page that basically gives the email address for contact (with the usual spam-protection measures applied).

Comment Post #281800 One thing other sites (including SE) do, and which I've heard is specifically because of SEO, is to put the text of the title in the URL even though the server ignores that part. For example, using that method, this question's URL might read `https://meta.codidact.com/posts/281799/questions-themselve...

Comment Post #281796 If this is implemented, it definitely should be an opt-in feature.

Comment Post #281781 While I do not miss reputation as such, I do miss being notified about up/downvotes on my posts. Reputation changes were a proxy to that. Indeed, on SE I liked the distinct rep points on votes of questions and answers (as long as those existed) exactly because it allowed be to immediately see whether...

Comment Post #281195 However the preview not matching the final post also seems to be a bug to me, regardless of what HTML is or isn't supported.

Comment Post #280917 More importantly, a question can have answers that don't solve it, or only partially solve it; as is, someone seeing that the question has an answer might consider it solved, and not take the time to read/answer it, although actually the question is still open.

Comment Post #280632 BTW, I consider the example linked to from your second point to be *less* readable than it would be with bold “Pro”/“Contra”. The colours don't draw my eyes to anywhere.

Comment Post #280632 Your first point isn't really solved by colours, as if they are allowed, the quoted text can also use them.

Comment Post #280405 A simple solution would be to put a close or collapse button on the text. If the categories page hadn't been removed, I'd say it's enough to list the descriptions there (as an aside, I actually miss a way to get a quick overview without clicking on all categories; if anything, I would have increased ...

Comment Post #280359 @OlinLathrop: Did you put quotes around the search term? If not, Google treats it more or less as independent words. Also Bing and Google use different algorithms, therefore Bing's order doesn't tell you anything on how the site's size affects Google results. Note that Google's PageRank algorithm (di...

Comment Post #280359 @OlinLathrop: There is no proof that deleting the 99% that was not touched on Codidact is not sufficient to reverse the effect. So what's wrong with first deleting the stuff that was not touched on codidact, to see if it has the desired effect? Also, do you have *any* indication of the claimed spill-...

Comment Post #276275 @PeterCooperJr.: IIUC the ending of APNG files is PNG, and the file formats are compatible (that is, a program supporting PNG but not APNG will see it as normal PNG image showing the first frame), so APNG should be automatically accepted if PNG is, unless special checks are done that filter them out....

Comment Post #280225 I don't think this site is technically a good fit for this, as there is no post type with threaded answers. Now in principle such post types could certainly be implemented, but that would be a *much* bigger task than just adding a new community.

Comment Post #279094 @MonicaCellio: It now works. Note that I'm not on Windows either, though (I'm mainly using Waterfox on Linux). @luap42: thank you. (Do multiple attributions in one comment work?)

Comment Post #280126 One possibility would be to have the option to upload linked images when submitting the post. Basically, the code would scan for any external image links, and if there are any. it would present a page asking you whether you want to upload those images (with an explicit warning that you must have the ...

Comment Post #276824 @Canina: I think Unix/Linux-specific programming questions should be ontopic, even if they include languages like C++. OTOH, platform-independent questions (or questions specific to non-Unix platforms) should be offtopic, even if they are in Perl (bash, or generally Unix shells, are Unix specific alm...

Comment Post #278495 An alternative could be a toggle switch to change it on the fly. So e.g. when writing a question involving code, you can toggle to monospace while writing the code section, and to proportional while writing the text section.

Comment Post #277182 @J.E.B.: Do they have to be different sites, or could they simply be different categories of the same site? Note that Categories is a feature of Codidact that is not available on SE.

Comment Post #278340 I'm a physicist, and while for some reason I've not ended up contributing much on physics.SE, I might (or might not, experience will tell) contribute more on a new physics site.

Comment Post #41993 Then site does not appear on the [Codidact.com main page](https://codidact.com/) nor at the site list at the bottom of the page. Is this intentional or an oversight?
