Yeah, I think we should take Moderator out of that list, for exactly that reason.
I'm ambivalent on removing the "Abilities" heading for mods; we might add other features that can be suspended on a case-by-case basis, such as suggesting edits, which would be separate from the blocks of features that... (more) |

A: Inconsistent use of "abilities" and "privileges" I believe that this is actually intentional and not a bug, because these pages serve different purposes. The /abilities page shows the abilities you can earn through your usage of the community. That's user-oriented, and part of the Abilities feature set. The /priveleges page, though, is a bit ...

A: Is there a test community where you can try out Codidact functionality without bothering people? Yes. We have two testing environments, https://a.dev.codidact.org/ and https://b.dev.codidact.org/. These are used for testing out new features and fixes before they go live on production, so you may have a slightly different experience, but it can also be used as a sandbox for testing things out. Th... (more) |

A: Images fail to load when previewed or saved We've just done a migration on the backend of where the images are being hosted (moving from old infrastructure to the dedicated Codidact infrastructure). This should just be a caching issue for now; if it lasts much longer, I'll poke the relevant people with sharp sticks. (more) |

> Once a privilege is unlocked, can it be removed again from the frontend? In particular, can adjustments to the qualifications, or "win conditions" cause existing privileges to be added or removed?
Technically, yes. Moderators have the ability to suspend individual abilities. If you've earned an... (more) |

We're not here to be an intermediary between people and AI, @#53023. If someone wanted to ask an AI they can do that directly. At a bare minimum, I'd expect someone to verify an answer that was generated from somewhere and include that verification in the answer. (more) |

That would have to be determined on a community-level basis, @#53489. I don't believe that we currently have a community where that would be on-topic, although the Power Users and Software Dev folks can correct me if I'm wrong. (more) |

A: License CC BY-SA 3.0 only available on Writing and Outdoors Writing and Outdoors both originally imported content from Stack Exchange, which was licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0[^1]. As such, they needed to have that license available on those posts. Since then, the vast majority of the imported posts have been removed, and I agree that it doesn't make sense to... (more) |

A: Does "site" mean "community" or "Codidact" on License field? "site" in this instance currently refers to the individual community. Yes, this should be standardized; we generally use "community" for each subdomain and "network" for all the communities hosted on .codidact.com (and Collab). "Codidact" can be ambiguous; it can refer to the network, to the organ... (more) |

@#8045 - Does that mean you've tracked down the source and can fix it when you have time, or does someone still need to figure out what's causing the bug? (more) |

A: Any self-hosting devs here? Questions about self-hosting or running your own Codidact instance can be asked on Codidact Collab. We spun up that site to host questions and answers about the software running our platform. There are definitely people running their own instances of our software; I know that at least @Taeir is do... (more) |

A: Mentioned `d` shortcut not yet showing or working The "d" keyboard shortcut follows the syntax of other keyboard shortcuts that take you to a different page. Pressing the "g" key - the "go to..." shortcut - and then "d" will take you to the dashboard. (more) |

A: Process for fixing a typo on codidact.org You can either raise an issue on GitHub or post a bug report here on Meta. Even the smallest of bug reports are appreciated, and that includes typos. You can also make a pull request directly to fix the problem - don't worry that it's a small change. I don't know when it will be deployed, because... (more) |
