Answer A: Answers order is changed when we access a specific answer by its direct link
This is by design. Sometimes, for example for the Code Golf scoreboard, we need to have a direct link to the answers. Since on questions with many answers the answers are paginated and the order is calculated "on the fly", it's not possible to say beforehand, on which page an answer would be. Ther...

Comment Post #282347 In my opinion, showing that some comments have been deleted is useful. For example, not showing that something has been deletes can cause confusion if later comments react to them. Furthermore, this also helps with confusion if you are pretty sure that a comment was there but don't see one/it. Given ...

Answer A: o@ßX shows up as [email protected]ßX
This looks like an issue with Cloudflare, which (wrongly) assumes that what you entered is an email. They apparently have an anti-spam-measure, that requires JavaScript to uncover email addresses. Since the JS doesn't run when the preview is created, the message is shown. An easy fix would be to t...

Comment Post #282380 re 1: this is kinda intentional, as it allows writing comments more easily. Furthermore, comment threads can be renamed by Curators/mods and they can also be notified of such an issue by flagging any comment in the thread re 2: A "General Comments" thread has been proposed a few times already and...

Comment Post #282348 Additionally, from a technical point of view, showing the whole thread inline has some additional burdens, which require changes at a lot of other places. We'll keep this in mind and will probably -- at some point -- consider adding more *interactivity* inline, but it won't be today and it likely won...

Comment Post #281997 Can't repo right now; image shows the "mark read" question for me right now. I suppose there is some activity check for the image selection, but I'm not 100%-ly sure and will look later and add a response here.

Comment Post #281827 @elgonzo the idea is that not the post is for you, but the new. So the posts are new to you. But I see now that there is some option fof confusion and we will consider changing it; maybe to something like "there are posts you may have not seen yet."

Answer A: feature-request
Thanks for your feature requests. I'm going to respond to all your points one by one: 1. Watching tags. We already support having questions highlighted based on a set of favorite tags. You can set those tags in your preferences. If this is not what you're looking for, please describe your idea mor...

Answer A: What will happen to comments when account is removed?
The problem is, that nothing happens with comments. Literally nothing. This means, that the comment table contains references to a non-existent user, which causes 500 server errors. This is bad and should be fixed, I just added it to our list. To fix these errors, I logged into the developer co...

Comment Post #281235 @ShashankVM ah don't worry about security, everything is just client-side and it's just a small game. The secret code (often known as Konami code and a common code for such easter eggs) is "Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right A B Enter" (which are the keys you have to press).

Comment Post #281235 I maybe should clarify... that there might be, indeed, an april fool easter egg... as the post may be a fool itself (but you might need to wait, until it's April 1st for you).

Question A note on April 1st 2021
Unfortunately, we didn't have the time to build an April fools easter egg this year. We'll build one next year, for sure! Therefore, for your own safety: - DO NOT try to enter any secret code on April 1st. - DO NOT play the game ('cause there is none). - DO NOT post your high scores in this t...

Answer A: `dir=rtl` and inline HTML CSS styling aren't working (quite urgent)
From what I can see, supporting the `[dir]` attribute can be safely done. However, we cannot support the `[style]` attribute for security reasons. CSS allows you to do a lot of things, many of those being a possible security or exploit risk. Even simple things like background images could be used...

Answer A: responsiveness 
I don't think it's feasible to support browser-width changes in the header dropout component. That's mostly for two reasons: 1. The same code is used for multiple elements, including the menu, the search bar and the inbox. Because - for example - the latter two are also enabled on desktop scree...

Comment Post #278730 @seth.wagenman Unfortunately no, because we can't find a bank wanting to provide us with an account. Most banks either don't want the type of non-profit we are or don't accept new applications due the Covid.

Answer A: Mail members free clothing that advertises Codidact.com?
I'm sorry, but to my best knowledge, the Codidact core team has no millionaires. We don't even have a common "Codidact bank account", because a certain pandemic has made it much harder to open one than we thought. We already have a way to have Codidact t-shirts produced and we might even do ano...

Comment Post #278544 @mbomb077 yeah sorry for that. We haven't forgot it, but the person I sent the data to didn't see it at first and I'd been on a break for the last month. Don't worry, we're working on it.

I'm sorry, but I have to decline this one. Categories are a core feature of Codidact and an important implementation of our central and long-standing policy that communities should be the ones who decide the stuff, including how their content is structured. We can talk about how to design the h...

Question Remember me function not working when 2FA is enabled
When I have 2FA (two-factor authentification) activated, I'm kicked out of my session way more often than if I haven't. That's annoying, because I need to go to my password manager and find my password. Even worse, when I'm not at my PC, but at my mobile. Reproduce? 1. Activate 2FA (I tried onl...
