I'am using the instructions function on my project ti describe the building process.

I wrote 3 instructions and saved. it was then displayed in reverse order. I drag them in place and eventualy got them in right order.

then i added some more instructions and the order was all wrong again.

I do drag them in order once more, but after saving the order is wrong again.

when i get one on its place, another one move away from its place (when saving changes).

I have now marked the instructions titles with it's numbers

Hi, I'll PM you about this.

Are you sure? yes | no

Daren Schwenke wrote 11/28/2017 at 18:18

Same issue. Examining the POST it appears the 'order' field is being ignored and instead instructions are ordered via the 'instructions' array index on save.

Are you sure? yes | no

Hey @Daren Schwenke, this fix will be out shortly, I'll PM you about the issue.

I think I asked for this before - I'd like to have an "Add project log" button *above* the project logs for less scolling.

The "Join this project's team" form has a field for the message, but it's pre-filled with a canned message that contains 0 information about why the person is requesting to join and how they want to contribute to the project. It would be nice if that field was empty by default, had a minimum length of the message required to submit the form, and a help text suggesting what to put in there, something like:

"Please explain why you want to join this project's team and what are your specific plans for contributing to it."

Like it is right now, we are only getting requests to join from clueless users who have no idea what that button even does, and often don't even speak English well enough to collaborate.

Are you sure? yes | no

Arya wrote 11/02/2017 at 13:41

I mostly agree with this. I need to follow up with people, asking "What skills do you have?", so that they actually write something to me.

However, I know that this is an issue that doesn't cover all projects - for example, I'm sure that HackChat doesn't need this kind of barrier, almost anybody can and should be able to get inside. I wonder if there could be either an exception to projects that are serious about participants, or projects that automatically accept anybody that has an account... In the latter case, I guess Sophi would have less mouse clicks to make every day =D

Are you sure? yes | no

deʃhipu wrote 11/02/2017 at 14:14

Indeed, it would be awesome to have a setting on the project's page for this, I can think of three options: 1. automatically accept all requests, 2. require acceptance (and require the intro text), 3. don't allow requests at all.

Are you sure? yes | no

davedarko wrote 11/03/2017 at 19:39

also add the link to that "we're no tv hackers" page to the request facebox for the hackchat - with a text like: "so you wanna hack facebook, click here"

there's some reloading thing broken. I noticed that too when I tried to add a picture (link only) and after posting it was gone.

Yep, it seems like you need to refresh the page for your picture to appear, which is confusing.

Could we have email notifications for PMs *please* go up and stay it, rather than roller-coastering, as in the status quo? I'm tired of up-down-up-down-up-down. I want just the 'up' half of that... and I'm tired of missing PMs until I manually check, usually a day or two *after* a PM was sent... yeesh...

The "Add tools" link on the hackerspace profile[1] leads to a 404.

I created the hackerspace profile almost a week back, so I'm guessing it's not some weird "eventual consistency" thing either.

I'd love to have option to delete messages. Every time I start a new project, there is new message "thread", where I can talk to other members (myself). Also, I'd like to delete messages where some half-anonymous wrote just "Hi Sir" to me and never responded again, so it will not clutter the space.

Hey guys, new updates are on the way for lists.

Are you sure? yes | no

Arya wrote 10/21/2017 at 23:16

One bug I've been consistently stumbling upon during the Hackaday Prize preparations - when editing, saving and adding instructions or components, their order is getting mixed up. It's super annoying (in fact, I have component order messed up on a projects right now and by now I'm too frustrated to go fix it, since there are no guarantees it will be fixed).
I can record a screencast of me stumbling upon this bug, if necessary - I haven't dug deep enough to see conditions for it to repeat, but it repeats for me in about half of all component/instruction editing attempts, on hackaday.io/project/19035 .

Are you sure? yes | no

Amar wrote 10/23/2017 at 16:56

Hey @Arsenijs fix for ordering components and instructions are coming soon. Thanks for the feedback!

Funnily enough, even though you replied to my comment and mentioned me, I didn't get a notification for any of these triggers. =(

andrew wrote 11/12/2017 at 04:29

@Amar I am still seeing this bug in the sorting of project instructions as of 11/11. It seems to randomly reorder my steps when saved. Not sure if this is a regression or if the fix hasn't rolled out quite yet but just a heads up.

Are you sure? yes | no

Jarrett wrote 10/20/2017 at 22:13

"Last updated" times seem to be busted again. All of the projects, sorted by last updated are old ones that haven't been touched in years. See the last updated time of these projects that showed up in the first page:

Hi. I'm trying to register a username 'the.real.retepv'. According to the instructions, I am supposed to be able to use a dot as separator. But my username with dots is not accepted.

For my project, #EVPR: Electric Variable Pitch Rotor, when you view the project overview page, the order of the instructions are out of order (step 6 becomes step 1). However, when you view the instructions by going to:
