Look at the first paragraph of the /help/how-to-ask page, under the subheading "Make sure your question is in scope". The last line of the first paragraph has been quoted below for reference. Mark...
For some reason, I can't access my flags page (https://writing.codidact.com/users/53196/flags). It just returns a 500 server error. It seems to only be only on this community for some reason; I ca...
The links in the banner text for the Q&A category all lead to 404s due to (I assume) outdated links. E.g. "fiction" leads to https://writing.codidact.com/questions/tagged/1/fiction instead of h...
I just got caught by something I consider a bug: I wanted to link to a web site, and used the link button above the entry box to do so. After I finished entering (or rather, pasting) the link into ...
I've been away for some time (for personal reasons), and noticed that we now have a category “writing challenges”. Now there are some old challenges in Meta which predate that category, but IMHO wo...
Feature Request/Suggestion: Comments It could just be me, but I've noticed that there's a lot of space between answers. More than once, I've looked at a question and thought it wasn't answered, onl...
Just checked: the tags for regular questions and for Meta are all available everywhere. I can ask a question tagged "feature-request" on the main page, for instance. Is it possible to have them sep...
I tried to upvote this answer but my vote doesn't seem to register. Maybe it is because it is owned by System, but then, there are other answers owned by System that already have upvotes. Note that...
I encountered a bug today while writing an answer. If I write my answer, and then put headers in the middle of it using the heading button, my cursor jumps to the end of my answer. So if I went bac...
I was writing a question today *applause occurs immediately*. When I went to tag it, I was able to select the 'characters' tag just fine. But then I tried to add 'creative-writing', and found that ...
Is there a way to see a list of tags? When I want to answer questions, it'd be helpful if I can zero in on areas of interest.
The "last activity" data on posts appears to be inaccurate. I just answered a question, but while the answer count shows my answer, the last activity data still refers to the time the question was ...
I suggest having "Meta", being the least "real" on each Community, be the last Category in the (currently horizontal menu) list. If others disagree, then it can be as-is. But whether that gets cha...
What happened to the Questions Tab? We used to be able to see multiple pages of questions and view them in different ways, including "Lottery". Now there is just one page of questions with no navig...
I recently subscribed to notifications for new questions posted on the site, but as a result I'm being spammed with a daily list of questions that have any change, including very old questions with...
Out of curiosity I clicked the "delete" link on one of my answers and the alert box that pops up asks whether I want to delete this "question", whereas it should ask whether I want to delete this "...
Today I got a notification that I had been mentioned in a comment. However, when I clicked on the notification, I went to the question the comment was on. On SE, you go straight to the comment, and...
I notice we have a dearth of activity on this site. With a relatively small number of active users, perhaps we can add a tab to the "Questions" Page. We have Activity, Age, Score as sorting algori...
This place is not exactly lively yet. That is not a surprise. But one quickly loses interest in visiting just to find nothing new day after day. Pretty soon you don't come back at all. What would...
When trying to use here the same avatar I used to have on SE, I got the following error message: 413 Request Entity Too Large I can only assume that SE does an auto-resize, which we don't yet hav...
Feature Request/Suggestion: Tags Tags exist right now, ported over from SE, but we don't have any structure for new questions. I'd like to see tag suggestions, like we have on SE, where you start...
There's currently no way to link directly to answers. SE has a 'share' button which does this. I use this ability quite frequently to refer to certain relevant answers.
I needed to include screenshots in this question but didn't see a way to add them directly. I uploaded those to imgur so I could post, but that's not the ideal solution. (You'll see why if you lo...
As far as I can tell, there is no way to explain the edit you do. There is no field to enter one. Also, in my latest edit, I tried to supply one as HTML comment in my post, but in the edit histor...
Take a look at my recently imported question: https://writing.codidact.com/questions/36723 The first answer contains a picture which is scaled on the SE site, but no scaling is applied to the post...
Bug Report - Missing Users I've noticed that some users, like Thomo and Lauren Ipsum, who have made accounts here (because their profiles don't say they are ported over, just that they haven't wr...
It took me a second to see "Ask!" in the top right of the page. The way there is an "Ask Meta Question" button on the meta subpage is great; it's inline with the content and list of questions. Ea...
It took me quite a while to discover how to see what was changed in an edit. Some visual clue on how to get it would be a good idea, I think.
I've realized in using this site how dependent I am on the information on the SE question list about who and what bumped a post. "Answered by" + name is a valuable "hey, go read this!" clue, as do...
According to the question list, this question was last active 8 hours ago as I write this: However, I answered it 2 hours ago as shown in the history on my answer: Is this list heavily cached...
I'm having trouble trying to claim my content. If I go to "Edit Profile", click "Authenticate", and sign in to SE, I get: redirect_uri is not under the registered domain for this application I ...
In the hot questions, it is not clear what are actual questions and what are Meta questions (well, if the title starts with Suggestion, it probably is meta). It would be nice if Meta questions woul...
