Welcome to the Codidact site for Code Golf (and other coding challenges)! We're glad you're here and we're excited to see what you will build. This community is starting "from scratch", without i...
Codidact's communities have a lot of great content that is helping people on the Internet. Our communities are small, though, and sustainable communities depend on having lots of active, engaged p...
Please welcome your new moderators: Quintec, Chris Jester-Young, and Jo King. All three have community support and I said "at least two", so we're happy to appoint all three as temporary moderator...
As we have set up communities here on the Codidact network we've been appointing temporary moderators. Ultimately, of course, we want each community to choose its own moderators; we've been doing ...
You might have noticed that challenges now show a leaderboard in addition to the table of contents. This is something this community has wanted for a while, and now, thanks to user contributions a...
Update: we can do this more easily now. We can change the reputation grants per post type per category, both up and down, without creating a new post type. Sandbox posts would continue to use the...
TIO? This community uses Try It Online (TIO) a lot, as do other golfing and programming sites. TIO doesn't host ads, but is some sort of partnership with them possible? What might that look like...
Codidact allows you to define three special types of tags: topic tags: these are treated as ordinary tags in all respects except that they're styled differently so they stand out. You can see...
Another approach, suggested by ArtOfCode in chat, is to create a close reason for "graduated" sandbox posts. When defining a close reason you can require a URL (this is what's used for duplicates)...
For a small number of posts, it will be easier to create them here than to import them. Your moderators (yes we need to get some) can create new help topics, which you can link to from question po...
Addressing only the technical (platform) issues, and not community culture: We need to make pending edits more visible in two ways. As you said, you have to go to each category to see what's wait...
"Finalized" (or "cancelled") seems like it should be a property of the post. We can close questions -- but not articles. I think that was a change at some point, because the point of closing is t...
When we launched this community, we did not yet have the ability to set different reputation grants for different categories. We've had this for a while but we failed to follow up before now, sorr...
I was surprised by your post, as I don't recall any discussions about changing that, and then I wondered how to change that. I looked around in the site-level and category-level settings both here...
This is already a category-level setting. An admin can change it to whatever y'all want it to be. I assume this would be for both the sandbox and the challenges category?
Some time has passed, and the leaderboard there now looks like this: It appears that the entry showing as undefined is confusing the leaderboard. I don't know what governs the placement of that...
