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...
This might be related to this issue, which is sort of the reverse of the one I'm reporting now. According to the front page, ArtOfCode did something on this question an hour ago (as I write this)....
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.
One of our community members, Paulster2, has created some ads and submitted them on SE sites where we've advertised in the past. These are "community promotion" ads, meaning the SE communities vot...
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...
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...
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 just noticed that some of my old meta questions here are marked as imported on my profile page, although they clearly weren't (they were meta questions about this site; there's no reason why I wo...
The links in the banner text for the Q&A category all lead to 404s due to (I assume) outdated links.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...
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...
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 ...
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 "...
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...
The "Ask!" button at the top of the page - when you're browsing Meta questions, you could easily think it means "Ask on Meta". Particularly if you're used to the SE format. But it doesn't - it mean...
I attempted a password recovery, but it does not seem to work. The error message was: The server encountered a configuration or processing error and was unable to complete your request. Please tr...
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...
In SomeOther systems, there is an easy way to mark an Answer as the "accepted answer". I don't see an obvious way to do that here. Is there a way? If not, should there be?
Apropos of the Sequence of Categories can I suggest some standardization of the naming of categories. In particular, I would suggest renaming "Q&A" as "Questions". Yes, questions have answers, ...
I noticed that only the last edit from Stack Exchange is imported, and attributed as a whole to the original poster. I think this is problematic from a copyright point of view, since if other peop...
I tried to access the Writing main Q&A RSS feed at https://writing.codidact.com/categories/1/feed.rss (through the Category RSS Feed link at the bottom of https://writing.codidact.com/ and http...
I'm a longtime Stack Exchange user. I wonder why this site doesn't have an accept button?
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...
When we set up this site we imported from SE as of the December data dump (the latest we had at the time). We didn't have a way to get the delta; the import code didn't use the API. We now have b...
Doesn't mean that I'm saying it looks bad. but certainly it could be better. On first look, I see raw twitter bootstrap styling. Although it looks little bit cleaner, but we can add some clean mini...
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...
Some Q&A websites such as StackExchange require from people asking questions to share "minimal prior research" that they had done to try to answer their question themselves (and often also juxt...
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 ...
Why close https://writing.codidact.com/posts/286099 as a duplicate of https://writing.codidact.com/posts/286098? They are related, but distinguishable. Deleting (semi)colons ≠ deleting comma and a...
