Second point - could we get some text color options? Would be cool to get red/yellow/green/blue for highlighting status of stuff. It would be totally alright if they were flattened a bit to match the color scheme.

Are you sure? yes | no

Hey Dave. Points noted. Thanks.

Are you sure? yes | no

cool, thanks :)

Is it possible to move the components list to the left side? Or is it too big? I think it's a valid point made in a totally unrelated blog comment http://hackaday.com/2015/11/28/the-internet-of-reflow-ovens/#comments

Are you sure? yes | no

K.C. Lee wrote 12/03/2015 at 13:14

Tempted to drop the component list in my projects in favour of just a link to the BOM.csv on my github. Github renders the right formatting, include refdes, footprints fields in a readable form without wasting space and automatically kept up to date. It is a user editable document, so I have full control and can even add datasheet/mail ordering SKU etc. For large BOM, that's the only sane option.

Here is what it looks like: https://github.com/FPGA-Computer/1x1/blob/master/Xmas/xmas_tree_proto_ListByValues.csv

It is generated by bom-ex ulp in eagle.

Are you sure? yes | no

davedarko wrote 12/03/2015 at 13:45

This is indeed helpful, but there are also parts that you wouldn't add to your eagle pcb. My comment was about styling, not usefulness ;)

Are you sure? yes | no

K.C. Lee wrote 12/03/2015 at 13:52

"user editable document" for "parts that you wouldn't add to your eagle pcb". Yes it is a pain.

The BOM in HaD is not going to be user configurable nor going to be added in any time soon like all other feedbacks. So either wait 6 months or forever or bypass it entirely. url will take up less space.

Some of those numbers are part of the "on boarding" process for new members. They don't show up in the feed because they didn't actually pressed a button. At least that's what I have heard.

Are you sure? yes | no

jaromir.sukuba wrote 11/29/2015 at 23:57

Uh, how does it work? I noticed it too, but was too lazy to actually compare my feed with followers list. Having more than 1k followers in almost two years or so would mean more than one follower per day average increase and this is definitely not the frequency observed in my feed.

Are you sure? yes | no

I've suggested a compact mode to the devs.

Are you sure? yes | no

alpha_ninja wrote 11/25/2015 at 21:19

Here's something unintuitive: those ribbons over a project's icon can show whether you've skulled/followed it. However, clicking those icons doesn't give a skull or a follow, but instead links to the project. Could you make the ribbon buttons perform the action they represent?

Are you sure? yes | no

Jasmine Brackett wrote 11/30/2015 at 21:31

I'll put a ticket in. :)

Hi , @Jasmine what about highlighters for AVR and PIC assembly?

Are you sure? yes | no

Jasmine Brackett wrote 11/25/2015 at 21:14

Hey Danjovic, I'm afraid I'm not sure. You'd probably have better luck asking this question over on hackaday.io/stack

Are you sure? yes | no

Thanks, did it : https://hackaday.io/page/1371-highlighters-for-assembly

Do you mean on the text editor for Hackaday.io or something else?

Are you sure? yes | no

Andy wrote 11/23/2015 at 01:46

So I bumped into a small conversation at the superconference and it was a few people discussing that they'd love to build more stuff but they didn't know what to build. I wonder how much interest there would be in a section or project tag for ideas that hackaday members have but don't have the time/inclination/skill-set to do it themselves?

Are you sure? yes | no

zakqwy wrote 11/30/2015 at 21:41

I do this in my Pages section, but I agree that a dedicated spot would be ideal.

Are you sure? yes | no

Stefan Lochbrunner wrote 11/21/2015 at 16:55

I just saw that project logs now show the complete date and time they were created on instead of the previous x days/months ago. Thanks for adding/changing that :)

But I think some of the requested changes and additions might go unrecognized. So the question is: Is there a change log somewhere that one could check out instead of stumbling upon the changes?

If not, I think this page might be a good place but I get that having the comments as far up on the page as possible is also desirable. I'd suggest to 'hide' them in the details section by having it say change-log followed by the read more tag at the beginning, that shouldn't take up too much more space.

Are you sure? yes | no

zakqwy wrote 11/23/2015 at 17:11

I just noticed the comment/log time stamps! Super great ya'll.

Are you sure? yes | no

Glad you like it :)

davedarko wrote 11/30/2015 at 11:42

@Jasmine - for better mobile integration, could the timestamps appear 'onclick' instead as a tooltip?

Are you sure? yes | no

Stefan Lochbrunner wrote 11/24/2015 at 11:44

When did you implement the save as draft feature for project logs?

Are you sure? yes | no

It just went live yesterday.

Stefan Lochbrunner wrote 11/24/2015 at 21:38

Thanks for the reply @Jasmine, but what do you and the devs think about the changelog?

Are you sure? yes | no

Jasmine Brackett wrote 11/25/2015 at 21:25

Hey Stefan, they currently post info about large changes in the feed page. We also sometimes do updates to #Hackaday.io Project. I'll add things when I'm notified.

Are you sure? yes | no

Stefan Lochbrunner wrote 11/25/2015 at 21:45

Thanks for this info, I sometimes see them relying to feature requests here as well. I just thought a central place to look up all features would have been useful.

Are you sure? yes | no

Peter Walsh wrote 11/20/2015 at 22:57

I've been getting "aw snap" messages from Chrome about 50% of the time for the last couple of weeks. (These are put up by Chrome when a page has some sort of processing error.)

I've sent feedback a couple of times, but this goes to Google and not Hackaday. I think it's a problem with the .io system, and not anything specific to Chrome.

Is this of interest? Is there some dataset or something that would be of interest to your developers to try to find this?

(Using Chrome 46.0.2490.71 with Adblock Plus only.)

Are you sure? yes | no

Jasmine Brackett wrote 11/20/2015 at 23:24

Hey Peter, thanks for letting us know. We'll look into it.

Are you sure? yes | no

Sophi Kravitz wrote 11/21/2015 at 14:05

I've also been getting the aw snap messages although not 50% of the time. I'm using Chrome Version 46.0.2490.86 (64-bit) no adblock, Mac Yosemite

Jasmine Brackett wrote 11/24/2015 at 21:15

Hey @Peter Walsh and @Sophi Kravitz, @Amar Patel asked if you remember what pages were being viewed or what actions were being made when these errors occurred? Thanks!

Are you sure? yes | no

Peter Walsh wrote 11/24/2015 at 21:32

Jasmine - I'll contact Amar directly through the .IO chat system. Thanks for hooking us up.

Are you sure? yes | no

If you have new bugs, please still post them here. Cheers.

K.C. Lee wrote 11/20/2015 at 18:07

Suggestion: Add a summary of recent changes to a project with time stamps under the stats .e.g.
Oct 10, 2015: Project log (link) added
Oct 07, 2015: Project Detail edited (link)

This makes life a bit easier to spot the new changes when you are revisiting someone's project.

Are you sure? yes | no

Thanks. I've put it on the wishlist.

I think this is a bug: When I open the site on my phone (Nexus 4, using Chrome) everything is as expected in portrait but when I switch to landscape the header disappears. I was also able to reproduce this in Chrome on Windows by resizing the window and sizing the window to a small landscape format in device mode.

When I click on my projects, for example, in lower right corner I can see number of views and and followers. I'm pretty sure it contained also number of skulls before, but now the information is missing. When I click on project and get into particular project page, I can see it there. On the other hand - lists display 4 kinds of information: views, followers, discussion posts as well as skulls.

Left: my projects ----- Right: robotics list

Is the skulls counter omission bug or feature?

Are you sure? yes | no

RoGeorge wrote 11/18/2015 at 17:33

Same here.
Comments and skulls were very useful, is it possible to put them back, please?

Are you sure? yes | no

Now that two guys mentioned it, I can too. I want the skulls on my projects! :D

Hmm, shame it's not on the "Add project" page.

davedarko wrote 11/13/2015 at 10:02

it's right below project status on 'add page' for me. They might use me for early beta testing though :D

Are you sure? yes | no

Stefan Lochbrunner wrote 11/13/2015 at 10:14

I have it, too, so I don't think it's a beta testing thing.

On that note though, a change log would be nice.

I've put a request in. Thanks!

Are you sure? yes | no

Yann Guidon / YGDES wrote 11/10/2015 at 02:12

A request : add the date and time at the beginning of each log, when we create it. It's a log, right ? So there must be a time stamp :-) The "relative, rounded" time indication is "OK" but it loses significance very fast. "wrote a month ago", yeah, what day ? When you have many things written "approximately" at the same time, you can't distinguish them...

Are you sure? yes | no

Jasmine Brackett wrote 11/13/2015 at 23:02

We've made a note of this. Thanks for your feedback!

Are you sure? yes | no

Yann Guidon / YGDES wrote 11/13/2015 at 23:20

It could be an "insert current date" button, like the "insert video" or "insert picture" buttons in the editor :-)

Are you sure? yes | no

Ivan Lazarevic wrote 11/19/2015 at 22:30

thank you for suggestion. now we're showing relative time if it less than a week and real time otherwise. also, if you put cursor over time it will show relative/real time.

Unfortunately not at the moment. There is a ticket in requesting that people can be mentioned by their username rather than their screen name. Thanks!

Biggest problem is that there is at least one justin too many for the list ;) thanks

Eric Hertz wrote 11/10/2015 at 09:00

username vs screenname is a bit confusing... (and might add even *more* people to the list, as dave mentions, below). What about user-number as an option, since that shows up on links? E.G hovering over your [user/screen]-name linked above shows: hacker/349... so @349 would be uber-clear when there's a huge list of similar names. (And thanks, y'all for changing the # method to handle both options for projects! Awesome!)
