Yes. A basic database. Initial form creates a ticket record and sends an acknowledgement. Not totally public - unless you *want* it to be. I would design it so that internal users ("company") can see/update everything, external users can only get to their own tickets via special emailed links. What t... (more) |

1 - No easy way around that. Either the system is a one-off send comments into a black hole and hope someone reads them *but never really find out*, or it has email as a way to communicate status & updates; 2 - That is a potential problem. The solution (typically) is to only send *one* acknowledgemen... (more) |

A: How can we integrate a lightweight public ticketing system into our documentation feedback form? Why not email? > We'd rather not ask for email addresses; this should feel completely opt-in and safe to the person offering us the feedback. I assume this is a totally open system - no "login" needed. Because if a login was needed then you already have email and/or other information needed to ... (more) |

of just once for the entire blob of code. I see the problems, I have a hunch on the solution, but not 100% there yet. And if someone else comes up with a solution first, that's fine with me. (more) |

I'm not 100% of "how". But I *think* that this may get towards it. I think the solution is a combination of: Get a ```pre``` or similar element to provide "code style formatting" + "with wrap" **plus** use "first-line" to style first line of *each* wrapped code line one way and the subsequent lines a...

A: How can we format code examples so that they work on a range of devices? I've seen this problem even on desktop - particularly if a blog with some code has a relatively narrow center section due to wasted space on the left and right (typically with stuff on the left and right at the top but then wasted on the rest of the page, but that really doesn't matter for this parti...

All true about C-style for loops. I was trying to limit the answer a bit, including (I think) just enough to get the point across. "computer science discussions..."

| Answer | — |
A: Is page range inclusive or exclusive? I may be wrong, but when I saw this I immediately thought of Python's range, where the number used is the stop number - i.e., stop before you get to that number. That also fits well with the way loops are typically structured in many other computer languages. So from a programming standpoint, this ma... (more) |

That is true in some cases. But in this case, I suspect (no proof, no time to research) that the "click" terminology may have actually started with the user side (mice were around before web browsers) and became entrenched enough, including the term getting into Javascript, APIs, etc. that now it is ...

A: mice don't tap and tablet-users don't click: what word can I use for all audiences instead? Click is really the correct term. I know it is a made-up action description for a mouse or trackball. It requires on-the-fly mental replacement with tap when used with a touch-screen (phone, tablet or larger). But click is the term used, for better or worse, within the code that runs all these wonder... (more) |

I agree with respect to "don't give OP a special vote" - i.e., OP's vote should not have any more or less value in terms of "points" than any other. However, there is specific value to other people answering (or considering answering) to know that OP has indeed solved their particular problem. It var... (more) |

Quick review (OK, just read the first several and the last few) it seems that general consensus is "have an Accepted Answer option", "don't make it mandatory because it doesn't always work depending on the subject matter" and "definitely don't make it affect ranking or rise to the top automatically"....

Accepted Answer? 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? (more) |

Been there, done that, regretted it. Add a sequence number field. **order by sequence, id**. Done.

| Question | — |
Sequence of Categories 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 changed or not, can you tell me if there is an explicit, not just "date added" or similar, sequence to th... (more) |

**Best practices** is a double opt-in like we have for the codidact.org announcements list - request just sits in an unseen pending queue until user verifies by Replying to (or clicking a link inside) the confirmation email. No idea what would be involved to do that for QPixel. I have written such th... (more) |

This is, unfortunately, an ever-growing problem. On a synagogue site I maintain where I used to get a handful of spam signups a month, I have started to get a dozen or more every day. In that case, I renamed the original signin script and added a message on the registration page to email webmaster to... (more) |
