Hey can you give Hackaday.io a good refresh in your browser and try this again.
I cannot edit project log pages with normal editing menu. It give me only small editing box with no additional function.

Thanks, Richard. I confirmed the editor is back online. It seems the editor is updated now.
I notice that 'show more tag' is missing both in editor and contents. Can I insert the tag manually ?
I'll look into it, atm I'm seeing the 'insert read more tag'
In html mode it adds:
"<div class="read-more-tag">---------- more ----------</div>"
My gallery looks like this atm

And I can't upload images to projects in the "Edit Project" section or in a log, it throws an error with above picture and this. one https://cdn.hackaday.io/files/1978038462803552/IMG_20241013_232937.jpg
Only the files section worked for it and I'm linking to the files instead in the logs.

done - looks the same to me. Chrome Version 129.0.6668.91 (Official Build) (arm64)
hope you meant the gallery, I assume the upload is the 500 error in disguise that I see so often.

Oh got it, yes it looks like fotorama updated/broke.
Archive.org have been attacked and went offline to prevent further damage.
They are a massive online library and some publishing houses are taking them to court to prevent them operating as usual. Maybe they are behind it, or a hostile power wanted to use them as target practice for internet warfare.
Hackaday.io is relatively small, but has it got enough security measures in place?
Hackaday.io undergoes regular penetration testing for vulnerabilities.
Great, thanks. I realised that I had no way to replace most of the work I put in my projects, unlike much of archive.org that could be scanned again.

Having an issue editing files on my projects - I cannot edit or upload my files with the normal editing tool.

We are aware of a CDN images issue affecting some images loading, and also uploads.
I know your software boffins have been plugging injection vulnerabilities in your website, but here's something they missed. When the subtitle for a project contains an apostrophe, the website converts it to the HTML entity ' but this is not rendered correctly when the project is viewed. For an example, see #Ancient 12 hour display where the subtitle is shown as "Old LEDs don't die, they just shine away"
I am getting personal messages, but there is no a content in. Instead of the message's text there is the "loading bar" (circle) and no animation. All what I can se the quantity of messages. My browser is the most recent firefox.
Does anyone know how to change the language of this website? I can't find a "Language" option anywhere that might exist.
When I tried to upload a tarball to hackaday.io I got the following error message: "An error occurred uploading zeptoforth-1.8.0.1.tar.gz. This file type may currently be unsupported."
Can this website please stop automatically adding liked projects and people followed to new joiners' home pages?
Project creators want to know what people genuinely like, so they can judge which projects to invest more time on.
The only project that a new user follows is the Hackaday project itself. Many of those "followers" are spammers who try to make their accounts look "active" by following random projects.
My young friend asked why he was following 22 people when he'd only just joined.
Could be a HaD glitch, not unknown. When I joined, I just got the basics.
I think as part of the on-boarding you are asked what projects that are shown are sparking your interest, which then leads to you follwing those.
It is definitely not part of on-boarding, because it happens before any declarations of interest.
What are you guys doing about making it harder for spammers to post their "projects"? It seems there are more spam postings than genuine projects. Is it a good idea to piggyback on Github authentication? Do you require mail address verification before enabling an account? Do you screen posts that have a huge proportion of links? Can you filter out certain languages, particularly the one that casino spam is posted in? They probably have slave workers forced to post their spam.
I also see that testers (I assume your own) are still discovering holes with Javascript injection. One popped up windows when viewing the page. Another created a form to be filled in.
Hello, I'm having a problem with adding images to my project log. When I drag them in or upload them it results in "Unknown error".
The image is 200kB PNG. I tried chrome and firefox, in firefox it added the images but after page refresh the images werent there.
Did you already try using the upload button instead of drag and drop?
on https://hackaday.io/projects page while not logged in. Clicked "next" to see next page. Suddenly the site was translated in corean or japanese IDK. Unusable and I don't see any reason to this on my computer.
I joined the website and created a profile to be able to post here. The page where you click on tiles to select your interests is absolute nightmare. You click, nothing happens. Click 5 times, eventually something happens, sometimes impossible to remove a tile... Probably from latency for searching compatible projects. Simply unusable.
The dates on website are in American format MM/DD/YYYY. There are many devs here, how can you use anything different from ISO8601 YYYY/MM/DD which is unambiguous ?
Agreed. International websites should use international date format.
I think if you blocked all postings in one particular language, you would get rid of most of the casino spam.

I'm unable to add files to my project. When I click "Add File," an empty page opens up.
