Welcome to Writing on Codidact!

Welcome to a new home for the Writing community. Please use it, report problems and make requests on Meta, and collect your thoughts about what we need to support our community.

This site is running on beta software that will eventually become Codidact. We started with a Q&A platform that already existed, and over the coming weeks, we will be evolving this software toward the feature set we've identified for the first official release of Codidact. This means some things will change (mostly things will be added), but the core -- a community built around questions and answers -- will not change. You can read more about the vision for the platform and the features for the first release.

All questions and answers from SE have been imported. Votes have not; this site is a clean start, and anyway, we don't know who voted so we can't tell you whether you've already voted on something. You can claim ownership for your imported content: log in to SE, go to your profile page on this site (link in the header), click on "edit profile", and go down to the bottom where you'll see an import button. Results might take some time; lots of stuff is going on in the background.

There is a reputation system here for now, but there are no some rep-based privileges yet (see Art's answer). It's kind of like a private beta at SE; everybody can do most things, so be careful. I believe deletion requires only one vote and I don't know what auditing is available. We don't have many moderation tools yet, but we do have flags. Be nice and be careful please. If you run into problems or have questions, post here on meta.

Welcome aboard! We have a great community; let's build a great site together.

This answer is a test. So far I found I can upvote, but cannot post comments. Testing if I can post answers.

Edit: test successful. Can post. Issue remains: can't post comments. Tested on Chrome and Firefox. Clicking on "post" does nothing.

Also can't change my avatar. System lets me choose picture from my computer, but then nothing happens.

But with all those kinks, still very happy to be here!

Re avatars: you need to hit save after choosing your avatar. As for comments - what shows up in your browser console (F12) when you hit Post?

Monica Cellio‭ wrote about 5 years ago

On the avatar, did you save the profile after? You have to both choose the file (using those buttons) and then use the "save" button at the bottom for the profile edit.

@ArtOfCode Nothing shows up in my console. But I seem to be able to post comments now. Weird.

ArtOfCode‭ wrote about 5 years ago

Weird indeed. Let me know if it starts breaking again.

Galastel‭ wrote about 5 years ago

Apparently the issue solved itself all on its own. Also tested commenting on posts that aren't mine - works. Maybe something with the first few minutes after the account is created?

Anyway, for the avatar change, I figured I should click "save". Not that technologically ignorant. :) An hour ago, it did nothing. Now tried again, the tab crashed.

Seems I can post comments.

The comment thing broke again. I can't comment. EDIT: Except I can comment here for some reason... EDIT: I can comment again. It seems sporadic. I could comment here, but not on the question I was looking at. Now I can do both.

Give it another go, @ThomasMyron - I just added an error reporting tool, so I should be able to pick it up if there's something weird going on.
