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?

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 12/27/2017 at 18:43

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!

Are you sure? yes | no

George Albercook wrote 01/18/2018 at 23:32

Thanks. Can I undo any changes that they ( or I) make?

Are you sure? yes | no

I cant rearrange my project instructions. It wont save any change and it is in really disorder...

Anyone an idea where the problem is?

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 12/13/2017 at 22:44

This is a known problem that will be resolved soon, sorry for the inconvenience. I'll PM you about revising this.

Are you sure? yes | no

Paul, if you are looking for part feedback you might ask in the Hack Chat https://hackaday.io/messages/room/2369

Are you sure? yes | no

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

Editing the instructions for one of my projects (https://hackaday.io/project/13425/instructions) resulted in them being scrambled. Multiple attempts to fix the order have failed.

Are you sure? yes | no

Thanks, there is a fix in the works.

Anool Mahidharia wrote 12/01/2017 at 08:07

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

The profile link text may be blank, can you check your list of profile links, what do they look like?

Are you sure? yes | no

Anool Mahidharia wrote 12/02/2017 at 03:47

Profile links look good. I tried deleting them all, but that still wouldn't work.

there's no "registered on" info on the profile pages (or I just can't see it) :( would be cool to that kind of information

Are you sure? yes | no

jaromir.sukuba wrote 11/22/2017 at 12:13

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

Are you sure? yes | no

Van Nguyen wrote 11/30/2017 at 00:13

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.

Are you sure? yes | no

davedarko wrote 11/20/2017 at 06:54

Linking and tagging people or projects gets slower or non responsive more and more. The "feedback" of having it formated as a link if succesful doesn't work in the chat. Writing logs is tough to credit or link to more than one entity. Seems like it gives up on the first character written, but that's just a feeling. Would be cool if people could share their experience.

Are you sure? yes | no

davedarko wrote 11/20/2017 at 06:54

Kjetil wrote 11/18/2017 at 07:40

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

MasterOfNull 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.

deʃhipu wrote 11/02/2017 at 10:58

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"

Are you sure? yes | no

Arya wrote 11/10/2017 at 18:47

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