I'm trying to publish my first project here and the instruction tab goes haywire whenever I save my changes. The images disappear, instructions go out of order, or even missing text. I wonder why doesn't this get noticed by the users and developers! Publishing a project on Hackaday seems a pain in the arse now compared to Instructables and Hackster.io.

Are you sure? yes | no

davedarko wrote 01/04/2018 at 16:45

that instructions bug is known for a while now, it's not used that often here, people tend to write logs while in the process of developing. That's probably the reason why it wasn't fixed already, sorry for the bad experience, quite an annoying bug :(

Are you sure? yes | no

Vishnu Mohanan wrote 01/04/2018 at 17:17

Please fix it ASAP, it's really frustrating. I lost a lot of text I typed. Now I'm typing it somewhere else. Also, the weights and sizes of an instruction's title and actual text seem to be same, means they are indistinguishable. Please also fix that and any other countless bugs! Thanks :)

The same occurs with the Details tab, so I decided to split the text in 2 parts, adding the 2nd part to a page. I'm wondering if the limit is around 64KB (html+text, not just the text), because the current Details of my project is ~49KB, and the problems start when I paste the second part, which is now around ~30KB.

Are you sure? yes | no

Vishnu Mohanan wrote 01/11/2018 at 14:27

Are you experiencing problems with Details tab ? I too have been experiencing it. Whenever I modify the Details page and try to save the page, content would disappear from it. This happens each time I save it. Then I found the content HTML had unusually long white spaces. So what I did was copy the entire HTML from the page, paste it into Brackets HTML editor and use the Beautify plugin to format the code. I then copied and pasted it into the HTML box of my Details page and it worked. Try it. I've been experiencing problems with Instructions page too but I nailed the bug there and have reported it. Hope they'll fix it soon.

Some issue with the coloring of the code, why are the comments "brighter" then the code? can you do something about the code vs. comment readability?

Before I let someone join my project I want to know what privileges they will have. Could they delete the entire project? I assume no, but where can I find out?

Hey George, only the admin has the power to delete the project. He'll have the ability to edit any of the sections on the project details page (details, files, components, project logs, instructions). Cheers!

Also, the "mute" option for chat doesn't really work for me. I'm part of the Hack Chat, but no matter what notification option/level I choose, I always get notifications in the menu bar.
Other than that, I'm really amazed that a "DIY/hacks" website has such a good touch for design :) congratz!

Are you sure? yes | no

Richard Hogben wrote 12/04/2017 at 22:46

Thanks for the feedback. You could try re logging after changing the notification settings in the hack chat room. Are you using Chrome browser?

Nice cd-drive project, I'm sure there are a lot of those going unused now.

Are you sure? yes | no

jurc192 wrote 12/05/2017 at 13:40

I'll let you know if it works, when someone writes something. I'm using Firefox 57.0.1 on Ubuntu.

Thank you! Still working on it...and learning alot trough it :)

Are you sure? yes | no

jurc192 wrote 12/05/2017 at 14:05

Nope, re-logging doesn't solve the problem. I have the chat set to "mentions only", but I get the notifications for every new message even tho I wasn't mentioned.

Are you sure? yes | no

jurc192 wrote 12/04/2017 at 22:04

There is no way to remove/delete cover photo of a project (AFAIK), once you uploaded it. You can only change it. Also, you can not position it.

Are you sure? yes | no

Richard Hogben wrote 12/04/2017 at 22:42

You're right, atm you would have to upload a black image to remove the cover photo.

Are you sure? yes | no

Why do I keep getting a "Link title can't be blank" every time I try editing my profile ? OR, it may help if the error is actually highlighted, since I've gone through my profile several times can cannot find said blank title.
Here's a picture link since I can't add one directly here

Again, firefox57 - sometimes every character is doubled by newline. Refresh of page (F5) seems to resolve it and I can write again as usual - see snag.gy/fmKYzH.jpg

Hey Jaromir, are you still having FF57 problems? It seems fine on my end.

Are you sure? yes | no

jaromir.sukuba wrote 12/06/2017 at 22:14

Seems to be OK now. The previous issues look to be gone too.

Are you sure? yes | no

jaromir.sukuba wrote 11/22/2017 at 07:07

Not sure what is the deal here, but writing project log on Firefox 57 is nearly impossible. I can start a new log, but can't paste text, when clicking "Link" button, dialog opens, but I can't close it. I can't cop-paste to this textbox too. After hitting Ctrl+V, cursor just moves to start of textbox.

It works in Chromium, though.

Are you sure? yes | no

jaromir.sukuba wrote 11/20/2017 at 08:09

When viewing project logs of projects (clicking "View all XX project logs" button), those are sorted from newest by default. From my point of view it's somehow backwards, so I have to switch it to sort from oldest every time. It would be fantastic if this option could be remembered and retrieved for given computer every time viewing project logs.

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 11/20/2017 at 17:12

Thanks for the feedback, we'll get this in soon.
