Feature request. Can we have a project search that's actually USABLE? For example, I *swear* I remember, somewhere in the distant echoes of my half-addled brain, that there was a C64 emulator using the "ESP32 TouchDown" platform as a project on here, but Search can't immediately pull it up... and clicking on tags and keywords somehow WIDENS the field of results instead of NARROWING it.

Amazon's "I'mma just spam random crap at you coz I've no idea what you want, dude" and Walmart's "Just go to the store bro" website searches are better than this!

If I could find that price might actually buy a TouchDown on Tindie... but I can't find Jack Squat. I'm not gonna bug the guy who made it, this isn't his problem. Im sorry, but: this is Hackaday, can't you guys code?!

The numbers next to tags and components display the filtered search results. Can you share a search link that expands rather than narrows the results?

I also don't see a project like that, Google doesn't have one indexed either.

Did you check Hackaday.com ?

I did not check the Blog side, but I'm pretty sure if it wasn't here then my memory just made it up. It does that sometimes... ADD memory suuucks, man.

The search issue seems to have vanished since this morning; when I experienced it, it was on mobile. Maybe it was related to the "create a new project" bug that the others were reporting...? I dunno. I was on the Chrome browser in my Samsung A11, it badly needs updating and I'm lazy lol. Still hasn't updated but bug has vanished on mobile and desktop both.

Not the first time technology has made a liar of me lol.

How come when I edit a project log it loses all the image references and is in a very small, HTML orientated screen. I also cannot access my account settings to check or change my email settings?  What is going on?

Can confirm, editing of old logs is broken.

Ok, thanks for advice, I will hold off for a few days? How will we know it has been fixed?

Looking into this, is it intermittent? If the log does not load correctly (no image refs) hold off, do not save the log.

The problem disapperead now, worked again.

Well, now "Edit files" shows similar symptoms

Too late, I did keep a copy of the text though. I will redo the 4 images when it is working. However all highlights, links etc are lost too.

Ok this seems to have come good, so I'll just leave the report below for reference.

Creating a new project seems to be broken. When I try to save I get this error from the server: (Note: Happens with 3 browsers, Firefox, Chrome and Opera.)

Even before the Save failure, images couldn't be uploaded, and links couldn't be set.

Is this only on new project creation, are there any tags added before clicking save?

This was when creating a new project. Tags didn't seem to take either. But it's all good now.

Seconding this. Two days already?

Yup, having the same problem as well.

Problem must have come back and I was lucky to create my project #TTL ternary clock before it went awry again.

Trying to reproduce when this error happens.

Tim is this on Windows/Mac or Linux?

happened in firefox/windows

Opening images should not create a web history to click back through! There should be a "web image viewer" page like we have and a script just runs to cycle the images through. Much nicer browsing experience.

This! 

Did the Project Log editor get changed? I'm writing a new log for one of my projects right now, last I used it I had formatting options and a nice big box for text editing, now what I'm seeing looks like the chat-box in member chat and there's no formatting or anything.

I hope this is something stupid my computer is doing. I've gotten in the habit of just cutting off the monitor at night, rather than shutting down, I haven't rebooted in forever. If it's an update Hackaday-wide I'm going to have to find another host for that project, as that editor -- if you can call it that! -- is entirely unusable for what I need to do later on. 

Chrome build string:

Version 97.0.4692.71 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Running on Linux Mint 20.2 XFCE, on a Lenovo 320, the AMD one, that's erm a bit salvage. Came to me with a dead battery and a smoshed screen, now it's an all-in-one keyboard desktop lol. I'm weird so I put fox stickers all over it and named it the Len-0w0-vo... it made me giggle, what can I say?

Works fine for me. Maybe you blocked Javascript or something, dunno.

I have only one thing blocked, by use of an extension, and that's not it.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah looks like the editor did not finish loading, it should expand, and display the toolbar.

Does it give you an error in console when the page loads?

I'm a nerd, but not like *that* lol. I'm a hardware guy!

Yeah a reboot fixed it, I'm dumb.

I see the projects and I like some and I follow some but somehow I'm not able to see anything lists of projects that I liked and I follow !?! Frustrating, I leave.

It's at the bottom of your profile: PROJECTS I LIKE AND FOLLOW.

Love the platform and created my own first project.

Unfortunately it got deleted and can't be found anymore (similar to the last to comments here)

The link was: https://hackaday.io/project/183079-maon/details

Happy for every help I can get, thanks :)

We're sorry. Your project was restored. Happy making!

Hi, I have tried to add my MTPA_420 project twice and both times it has been automatically removed. I am hoping the first version can be restored?

Sorry about that. It's back up now!

Hi, it seems my project has been removed silently and the page now returns "Project Not Found".

 https://hackaday.io/project/183313-landscapi

I'm doubting if it was intended, as the project did not contain anything inappropriate I think.

Emailed you.

Thank you! 🎉

Is it a known issue that in (at least my) mobile browsers, images are sometimes scaled without preserving aspect ratio?  If that's a new issue, or just needs more data, happy to provide more detail, or help pin down repros, etc.

Hi, by and large all is great, but it would be great to be able to convert "pages" (which are standalones if I understand correctly) to "Project logs" (which are tied to project) and vice versa. Sometimes you start with one and then realize it is best to model it as the other and then only option is to copy/paste. It would also be super cool to have an "automated" github repo for a project so that the docs written have change tracking and control. 

hey, just wanted to let you know that I am able to see the project card of a private project by @tinyledmatrix in my feed 

Hi @davedarko -  Are you a project contributor?

nope

I believe adding syntax highlight for HDL like Verilog or VHDL in the editor would be useful. At least I am missing it. Also, is there an option to turn the default font color of the code section into something with higher contrast?

My project seems to have been "deactivated" or bugged? I see it on my profile but its not clickable and any links I had to it redirect me to a page saying "project not found". I just posted this project within the last 8 hours.

We're sorry, looks like it was deleted by a script by accident. It's back up now!

Thank you!!!

The text is so dark on this site I can't read it. Makes the site useless for me. Is there any type of theme control or CSS change?

Is there a limit to the amount of text that can appear in Details? I seem to be at a point where any additions Published to the Details section gets truncated.

Yes, I believe Just4Fun hit the limit in one of his projects.

THANKS

Hi, as explained in this KiCad forum post, the old KiCad domain was acquired by a party not associated with the open source project.

https://forum.kicad.info/t/warning-avoid-all-links-to-kicad-pcb-org-use-kicad-org/31521

The official domain is kicad.org. A search using the phrase "kicad-pcb" (with the quotes) got 41 hits, though it's not clear to me where those hits appear in the items I have looked at.

Is it possible for an admin to do a bulk edit of those pages to ensure that the links point to the correct domain, kicad.org?

Thanks.

I would need to investigate further, but if the links do end up posing a security risk it may be a possibility. In the meantime I could message the owners of the content and recommend updating the link.

An entry on the global feed announced that a hacker had updated a page on their profile. Actually they had deleted it and the link pointed to the page with the space robotman swimming in the void. Shouldn't the announcement be suppressed in this case?

Yep!

On my messages list there are some empty conversations. Perhaps the hacker tried to initiate a conversation but changed their mind. Is there a way to delete those? I don't want to block the hacker, maybe some day they might have something to say.

Also there are some deleted users on the list because they sent scam, probably to lots of people and got reported. It should be possible to delete those conversations too without using block.
