Also found some annoying "features" in the code snippet tool.  I pasted in my c ocde, high light it and click the snippet tool.  What it does is default to Ruby.  I select no high light and when I am done, the code swallows my opening C brackets among other things.  This used to work.

PLEASE do not default to any high lights.  Do not mess up the user code.

I am seeing formatting bug:

This is the published page looks like.  Obviously it doesn't think that I am yelling loud enough?

This is what it looks in the editor and what I wanted.

This is what the html code looks like using the HTML button inside the editor

What I did is to type and format the "Volume Meter" part afterwards as heading 2. That seems to upset the code that automatically changes the he line to normal.  It used to work, but this new code doesn't.

it seems that you didn't close one of h2 tags.

I don't have a choice as I am using WYSIWYG editor. It is the editor in this case that choose to keep my paragraph with the P2 tags when it is supposed to be normal.    I tried half a dozen time removing the paragraphs and adding them back hoping to remove whatever tags the editors thinks it had.  What a waste of time on a buggy editor.

Why is there no way to report spammers on hackaday.io? I got a message from someone asking me to back their kickstarter. I'm guessing they sent it to everyone on hackaday.io. The username was c.hbard.85. I won't link his website.

Mine was from chbard8.5

Mine was from doteverything20

there is 'Report as inappropriate' option on profile page.

It's awesome that you have latex equation support.  I wonder if it would be possible to enlarge the rendering a bit, though.  Some subscripts, like the B_z below, are greeked at the current size:

I've tried the usual latex tricks to enlarge the equations - it's difficult even in a full latex environment, and seems impossible in the embedded latex here.  I think just increasing the image rendering size a bit might fix it.  Thanks!

Pressing space after pasting a URL means the last segment of the URL doesn't get styled as part of the URL. 

E.g.  http://hackaday.io/test

Even though the link seems to go to the right place.

It looks like all uploaded images end up in the gallery.  I have some images (little figures accompanying text passages) that I'd like to remove from the gallery, but there appears to be no way to do this (unless I'm missing something, which would be completely in character :-)

Hi Ted for now the gallery is auto populated from the project's images. I could see how you might want to exclude some images.

Links to comments, comments on instructions  or "read more" type links for projects in the feed seem to be giving me 404.

(mobile chrome) 

Hey jacksonliam did you see this on all feed read more type links or just some?

I think it might just be links to comments on instructions e.g this link https://hackaday.io/instruction/8678#j-discussion-58465 or this one https://hackaday.io/instruction/8678/#j-discussions-title to this project https://hackaday.io/project/8678 404.

Regarding eMail notification with subject: "%user% mentioned your project" I suggest to change it to "%user% mentioned your project %projectname%";

Background: I got two of these mails, but it is not mentioned which project of mine was referenced to and I cannot figure it out by reading the post. So this feature is more or less useless to me as-is. I can only guess that something like "if %projectname% in %post% then send mail" is going on?

Thanks we'll look into making the mentioned project clear.

Feed reported 12 new items unread, but only found two actually, distinctly unread items.

I want to +1 BigEd's observations too.  A contributing factor for me: no visual distinction between item boundaries leads to a very cluttered feed, which makes reading it difficult.

Too much stuff appearing in the feed. I keep seeing the same projects updated - are all these real and distinct updates? What changed?

I see stack messages - there seems to be no way to unsubscribe.

And there's no way to see which feed messages I have and have not read.

(I had to split that into three messages because when I did one with the links it truncated it.

If ever you take submissions for additional content to allow, please allow Shadertoy and Desmos.

Some control over the "My Feed" stuff would be great. I have no idea why some things show up in there that I haven't liked, followed, or anything. It kind of clutters up the first page you see when you log on.

Also, when doing a log post, I sometimes want to use the insert table feature. The problem is you can't size any of the columns or rows and they resize when you save the post so what you see is not what you get. I'd really like to see that feature made usable.

I'm having difficulty using <sup> tags in the HTML view of the editor.  I'd like to use superscripts for footnotes in a table.  I go into HTML mode, and add the ¹ code.  Exiting HTML mode, the superscript appears fine in the normal editor mode, but when I save the log entry (as a draft in this case), the <sup> tag is removed. 

Edit - same thing outside of tables, and with <sub> tags, too.  Nd2Fe14B just isn't the same written this way :-)

not all html tags are allowed and even if you see them in editor mode they will not be saved. we just added html mode but we're still not allowing much more than what you can use with a toolbar. we'll probably allow more safe tags soon.

I tried to add some interactive links in my Project Log by using IFrames from html mode, but when I published it, the site had munched them.
What is the party approved way to embed my Shadertoy and Desmos content so they will animate and be properly interactive?

I had the same issue with a  WebGL app.  I ended up linking to a copy hosted on my personal site. Suboptimal.

OMG, when'd the HTML editor come around?!

But... it doesn't work... Click <>, type <s>thing</s> Unclick <>, SEE struck-through "thing", Click Save, Unstruck-through :(

We're still allowing only what you can use with the existing toolbar. We'll probably allow more safe tags soon.

Hey Tim!  We're currently only allowing vimeo and youtube links for iFrames.

Hello!  I recently received spam here.  Sophie was top A+ help getting rid of it and the spammer.  Rather than take up her time, could you please add a "this is spam" button for future?  As HADIO grows this will happen more and dealing with it will become a growing burden.  Thank you!

+1.  With enough people clicking on the button, this can be automated.
Still waiting for ways to removed PM and comments (once confirmed by others) from spammers.
I have also seen (and have reported) an increase in unrelated accounts to gamble google page view e.g. escort service, dating service, gambling, astrology and questionably PC support.  Would be nice to automated that too.

A computer has access to stats that humans don't.  It can notice the rate of PM/comment traffic (vs the norm) and can also comb through the last n messages/PM sent.  There are enough stats to show what normal activities should look like. 

- If it is a *new* account with high rate, exact message, then it is a lazy spam account.  (special exception is group messaging in a project.)

The owner of an account should be able to delete PM threads whether it is SPAM or not. Comments is a bit of tricky topic, but the owner should also be able to delete a confirmed SPAM or deleted account.

The revenge spam report/like bots can be minimized if the account creation date and amount of HaD.io activities/interactions is taken into account.  If you have accounts that are all within a few days old all doing the same thing (likes/dislikes/follow a project/account), chances are they are controlled by a program (or slashdot effects?).  Also compare the age of accounts from the accuser vs the target.  Which one is older (should look at log scale)?  The older account should be given more trust/benefit of a doubt.

hi Dan, we'll see to add that option in private messages, but for now you can use Report as inappropriate in sidebar on user's profile page.

Yes! got spam today and could only flag the users themselves, but the spam lives on.

Some way to actually remove message threads from the inbox is paramount (especially for spam).

Hmmm

yep yep.

Fixed

In private projects, edits to the "components used" section fail to save, and items cannot be removed.

Please fix this!

Can you edit components in your private project now? DO you have anymore details like browser/os? Thanks.

It is working now. I was/am using Chrome on Android 6.0 and Chrome on Windows 7 in case that means anything.

Ok great. It may have been an intermittent issue, let us know if you see it again.
