Hello @Stuart Longland ! Are you still seeing this issue? We're not able to reproduce this on our end. Thanks!

Are you sure? yes | no

Having the same issue on Debian Buster with Firefox 52.3.0
I am also unable to edit any instructions within a project. Adding another step is fine.

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 08/23/2017 at 22:30

@Sproket the instructions issue should be fixed now. Can you try again?

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 08/23/2017 at 22:31

@Stuart Longland send me a PM if this is still an issue for you.

Something funny in the adding code snippit for project log. Chrome 60.0.3112.90 (Official Build) (64-bit). I tried to paste the following as a block code from my source code. There are tab characters before each of the lines. Removing the tabs makes no difference.

else
Hotkeys.State = HK_Idle;

The cursor is the vertical | cursor (inset mode) for the first line. It turns into a blue block on the 2nd line (Insert mode = off). I cannot change into insert mode at all with the INS key.

This is the html code view:

<pre data-language="cpp" class="hljs cpp">else
Hotkeys.State = HK_Idle;</pre>

I did managed to get it to work, but there is something wrong there.

Uploaded photos do not have their EXIF data or any other metadata stripped. I've picked some random projects which has photos and I can see the camera EXIF data and sometimes even GPS information. Is this intended behavior? If yes, maybe not that on the image upload so users are aware of this.

Are you sure? yes | no

So... It would be nice if "projects" had a very explicit "Licensing" tab, with choices ranging from "public domain" to "teaser for a proprietary commercial product"

Even better would be some sort of App that lets contributors choose attributes for sharing, and narrows down "typical" licenses to reflect those choices. Sort of like https://choosealicense.com/ but including OSHW-appropriate choices.

The tab might have to include license info for both the HW design and any SW/firmware components.

Are you sure? yes | no

This "white on black" hackaday.io website is unreadable during (bright) daylight. I have searched quite a while to find a "black on white" hack, though only could disable custom colours for each and every website in Firefox, and that disables showing the images too. Wish a high contrast "reader" layout (or no color styling at all).

Are you sure? yes | no

Clara Hobbs wrote 08/11/2017 at 17:22

Surely you could write custom CSS for Stylish to change the text and background colors on this site.

Counter of views out of service?

Are you sure? yes | no

Can you elaborate?

Are you sure? yes | no

Jean-Pierre Cocatrix wrote 08/09/2017 at 08:11

Elaborate? Simple the views counter seems no to be refreshed. 100 to 400 views per day but this week nothing? To strange to be normal.
Just a remark, not essential.
https://hackaday.io/projects?sort=views&page=3
No counters on this for example changed in a week.

Is it a big problem?

Are you sure? yes | no

For testing purposes (no self-likes, I swear!) I've added an account with my work mail a while ago, then deleted my account. But I've still received the newsletter and had to unsubscribe it. That's probably something someone would whine about :D

Is it possible to move the "Delete project' button somewhere else, please. Talking here about the 'Delete project' button, which is actually more a delete project Bar than a Button, and it is placed just above the 'Save' button which one will normally want to click.

The 'Delete project' it's bigger than the Save button, and I almost click it a few times by mistake. It almost gave me a heart attack each time I wanted to click 'Save'.
:o)

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 07/25/2017 at 17:49

There's still a modal that opens after clicking 'Delete project' to confirm deletion, but you're right. We'll try our best to prevent unwanted heart attacks ;)

Are you sure? yes | no

I don't seem to get email notifications for comments on ZeroPhone project or its worklogs, even though I'm the creator and the one that posts all the worklogs. For example, https://hackaday.io/project/19035/log/63250 - I only got the notification for comments by Radomir and Morning.Star, Tor's comments have all went without notifications. This is bad, because if I don't notice a comment, I can't reply to it and questions or potential collaboration opportunities can easily be left unanswered. I don't want Hackaday.io to look like yet another site where you can post your questions and never get an answer (or never know that you got an answer), so I do my part on answering the questions I get, but this issue is getting in the way, TBH.

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 07/24/2017 at 17:28

There's a 1 hour minimum for emails, could that be the issue for you?

Are you sure? yes | no

Arya wrote 07/24/2017 at 17:52

Yep, that's probably the issue. It's sad there's no way to opt-in to decrease this minimum - if you ever implement a way to do this, please, do notify me =)

Are you sure? yes | no

Arya wrote 07/21/2017 at 22:30

Hi! So, the editor appears to have changed. It's all fine by me, but the code blocks are now fucked up - adding a Python code block, then going to HTML view and back fucks the code block up with lots of garbage HTML stuff. I wish I weren't as disappointed about this as I am right now - especially knowing I have at least two long days of waiting to post my worklog =( =(

Are pictures filtered in comments? https //cdn hackaday io/images//6671721500675140577.png

Are you sure? yes | no

Arya wrote 07/21/2017 at 22:35

"No highlighting" code blocks aren't affected, so it's got something to do with highlighting - as viewing HTML suggests. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with HTML =(

Are you sure? yes | no

Arya wrote 07/21/2017 at 22:46

Also, when it will get fixed, I have a worklog with code snippets without highlighting - https://hackaday.io/project/19035/log/63675. Could you please either enable Python highlighting for all the code blocks, or notify me via PM so that I can convert them when I have the time? The worklog is, unfortunately, not so readable without highlighting =(

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 07/24/2017 at 17:27

Ouch, we'll check this one out. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Should be fixed now @Arsenijs, let me know if it's fine for you.

Are you sure? yes | no

Morning.Star wrote 07/21/2017 at 07:15

Thanks to whoever it was changed the buttons on the edit project page for no reason. I used them to line up the right hand edge of the picture when scaling to give my pages a distinct feel, among other little tricks.

It might not seem important to an interface designer, but designer and artist interfaces are relied upon for continuity in ways the designer never intended. It's getting like my mobile phone, which I now hate because they change my desktop monthly without my permission.

http://steinway.co.uk would be unimpressed. ;-p

Are you sure? yes | no

Looks like on the hackaday.com blog I can't post comments with Facebook anymore. I can login with my facebook account, but when I try to post something, it says it needs eMail and name fields. When I logout from facebook and use eMail and names field, the posting doesn't appear. Login with twitter works (didn't check login with wordpress account).

A recent "feature" has appeared on the pages dedicated to the project description : the bottom of the page shows a "Add a project log" button, yay ! (This shows on the projects I own.)

However the link https://hackaday.io/project/undefined-promer/log/add goes to our beloved flying Bender. Who allowed this bug to go to prod ?...

Youre right its a mistake and is going to be removed.

Are you sure? yes | no

Yann Guidon / YGDES wrote 07/17/2017 at 17:14

It's working for the log pages but not the main "project detail" page

https://hackaday.io/post/63133 still has the dreaded "undefined", it smells like a JavaScript issue...

I still wonder why these buttons had to be added at all.

Are you sure? yes | no

Arya wrote 07/23/2017 at 15:26

The "Add a project log" is actaully a great button! I have clicked on it already - otherwise, you needed to go to the main project page and then find the "Add a project log" button down below.

Are you sure? yes | no

Yann Guidon / YGDES wrote 07/23/2017 at 15:30

I clicked once :-)

Today I see that the button is removed from the project details page. I can still add logs from other pages though and it's fine :-)

Are you sure? yes | no

Arya wrote 07/23/2017 at 15:35

Well, I think that the "details" page is not supposed to have this button anyway, am I right?

Are you sure? yes | no

Yann Guidon / YGDES wrote 07/23/2017 at 16:00

"supposed", I don't know.
It didn't have one.
then it had, and didn't work.
and now it's gone.

Feature request: Ignore list for a specified Hack Chat user.

Is there any way to make invisible all messages from a certain user, please?
If not, this is a MUST have feature, please consider adding this feature.

Are you sure? yes | no

davedarko wrote 07/12/2017 at 08:45

Hm, that can get confusing with responses coming out of nowhere :D I think for personal messages that makes sense and is needed, but in group chats there can only be exclusion.

Are you sure? yes | no

RoGeorge wrote 07/12/2017 at 09:42

There is no absolute right or wrong. Also, judging in the name of everybody else and start banning/excluding people is not what I am looking for.

Confusing or not, the "ignore user" feature is still needed. Please consider it.

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 07/13/2017 at 20:33

Hey Dave, we're working on a feature to mute unwanted PMs. Stay tuned

Are you sure? yes | no

I don't want to be responsible that this comment won't be replied to, because I did - so I'm linking @Richard Hogben and @Van Nguyen and @Van Nguyen

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 07/13/2017 at 19:05

Unfortunately, there is no way to hide messages from a user in a conversation at the moment. Foremost, messaging was created for collaboration on projects, and so muting other contributors is not what we're trying to support (however that doesn't apply to more niche scenarios like Hack Chat, as you've evidently noticed).

It's definitely a feature we'll consider for the future. As far as alternative choices go, it is possible to block user messages using a Chrome extension (see this one for Slack: https://github.com/ketanbhatt/block-slack-users). Could be a Hackaday project ;)

Are you sure? yes | no

RoGeorge wrote 07/13/2017 at 20:37

Thanks for the honest answer.

Not a Chrome user, but if the need to block users will persist, I'll try to mod the Chat webpage with some JavaScript and GreaseMonkey. Will post any details as a log entry in the https://hackaday.io/project/6621-hack-the-hack-a-day-editor

I just liked a project, and then saw it over on the blog's sidebar as "Christopher Bero likes blah".... Can't this just be my username please? I provided my real name so emails from this site can address me, not really for my actions to be broadcast like this.

Are you sure? yes | no

Richard Hogben wrote 07/06/2017 at 20:28

Thanks, looking into this.

Are you sure? yes | no

Christopher wrote 07/06/2017 at 20:44

I shouldn't have just voiced frustration on a feedback channel, sorry.
Actual feedback would be that I don't understand the difference between the username and a profile's full name on this site, and it doesn't seem to match any other forum I've used. That's not immediately bad, just unfamiliar and maybe a bit jarring.

Are you sure? yes | no

Richard Hogben wrote 07/07/2017 at 01:34

Understandable, and that's what we are discussing. We'll try to clear it up. In the short term, there are currently no private fields on the profile page. Username is referenced in the URL, and 'your name' is referenced elsewhere.

Are you sure? yes | no

Dan DWRobotics wrote 07/20/2017 at 19:17

This same thing seems to be happening to me. I 'm guessing there is a minimum post count that stops spammers putting stuff up to the main pages. No biggie but just wanted to share my project with everyone.
