Most of the sites are struggling to get questions and while it seems to me at least that more effort has been put into optimizing for the answerers than for the askers. To put it another way, ther...
I think we should, voting score is a poor indicator of how useful a post is because most visitors aren't going to sign up and vote. Right now it's hard to tell how many people are reading the post...
A feature that SE has that Qpixel lacks is the related questions in the side bar. It makes it easier to find other similar questions or even duplicates. It also creates more engagement because afte...
As of right now, the only real way to see that a question has no answers is to go off the answer count, which is small and not real easy to see. On Outdoors where I am not interested in writing an...
An example where an exact search returns no results for the copy and pasted title. "Should we display the number of views?" https://meta.codidact.com/posts/search?utf8=✓&search="Should+we...
As of right now you can flag the post and write in the message box that there are rude/ non constructive comments on the post since it’s not currently possible to flag individual comments.
Can the Hot Question list be changed so that featured posts don't show up in it? They are already in the list once.
On Outdoors there is blue icon that says what category a question is in when searching by tag. However when categories share the same tag set it will say that Q&A posts are in the Gear Recommen...
Currently in order to check for new posts on the sites I am interested in, I have to visit the sites individually. Since the posts are stored in one DB would it be possible to get a page here that...
Currently two sites, Outdoors and Photography are running month-long contests. Currently, both are showing up in the Hot Posts list, but that will only be for a week or so. Could it be possible to ...
Just to throw in my two cents, right now other than the link way down at the bottom of the page and extra link in the sidebar on Photography, the sites are really trying to be built while standing ...
Have we considered some way of displaying questions from one site on another? It seems like the easiest people to convince to join a site would be members of other Codidact sites and they would alr...
Outdoors.SE has had some interest in moving away from SE, https://outdoors.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/1611/what-is-status-of-efforts-that-were-started-during-the-mess-to-create-a-new-patf ...
Both Outdoors and Photography are running photo contests and it would be nice to display the winning image from the last contest in the sidebar. My idea of how this would look, It would also be...
The old forum still has the discussions that came before this site, and there are also the channels in Discord. That's probably most of the older discussions, there might be some in the SE chats f...
The hierarchies of tags are awesome, but its a little hard to see the relationship. Could we get a page where the tags are displayed like this, Animals Antelopes Bears Black Bears Polar Bears ...
Right now there really isn't a good way for a mod to delete rude comments before their parent post is flagged, other than looking through profiles of repeat offenders. On sites with imported commen...
Being able to see a list of users and how many times they have votes was useful on the old sites to see which users were engaged in the voting. What I would propose is that on the /users page that...
Currently, this site and Outdoors have discord servers set up for chatting, supposedly Writing has one as well but I haven't been able to find it. It would be nice to have a link to those servers ...
There is one deleted answer here and given that is has been deleted, I shouldn't be able to either upvote or downvote it, but I can. It looks like up and downvotes on the deleted answer are also ...
I accidentally closed a tab with a question and lost some changes so I do feel your pain. However, if we are going to fire an event on window exit I would much rather it be saving the draft in its...
Here is what one of the closed questions looks like, and as you can see one would have to scroll all the way down to find the link to the dupe target. I think it would be much better if the close ...
There are a couple of things that I think would be nice to improve contests, Hide the score while the contest is ongoing, that way it doesn't influence other people's votes. Sort answers in two w...
These users Cobaltduck and Oddeer both claimed their SE accounts and their posts are correctly associated. However on some of the posts, example 1, example 2 there is still a notice saying that it...
It's because there are two different software platforms here, forum.codidact.org is running on Discourse meta.codidact.org is on running on QPixel. At some point the idea is to stop using the D...
