Hi, Any way to report spam messages / users? I see the block option, but they can continue spamming somebody else...
You need to position the mouse on the same line as Reply so that the Report as Inappropriate link appears. Similarly for users from their profile.
Noob- I asked a question in Stack, but I don't see my question when I navigate to Stack.
Hi @aclark - New projects, Stack posts, don't show up in the feed or all projects page, immediately. We implemented this rule as protection from spammers, so you just have to be more patient. Thanks!
Apologies if I'm missing how this should work. If I want to add a project to a new (private) list, I click Add to List -> Create New List, enter list title/description and hit Save, it open the page for that list, but the list is empty. It would be great to have the project I was just in when I started the process to create the new list, automatically added to the new list.
Thanks!
Hi, I cannot get rid of empty videos in the gallery of my project (https://hackaday.io/project/185958/gallery#aa067470a379e6b83caa59c97b6281e7). Whenever I add a new video from Youtube an empty video appears in the gallery in addition to the actual video. Thanks for any help.
Looks corrected now, there was just a some formatting confusing the gallery. The videos should embed correctly if you use the 'insert video' button while the editor is open, then just paste in the youtube video url.
Thank you very much for prompt response! The gallery looks okay now.
It looks like request to join a project only appear in the notification email and on the project page itself. It would be nice to have these appears in My Feed and/or Notifications menu
Maybe I'm mistaken but it seems that project views for my projects have gone backward recently. Was the views stats restored to an earlier checkpoint?
There have not been any rollbacks but there can be small fluctuations in how they are calculated. What are you seeing?
The view counts for a couple of my projects went back to the numbers I renenbered from a few weeks ago, where they had been for a while, before I published updates to them. It's not a big deal, but I found the "rollback" quite consistent.
Edit: Now it the counts are back to the high-water marks that I saw. Maybe like you say due to the way views are counted.
I have a new account. I'm using a Microsoft Surface Pro 6, running Windows 10 version 21H2. I cannot access my profile or log out. The browser does not show a drop-down menu in the upper righthand corner of the screen, just a "My Feed" button. I can access my profile easily from my Android phone. The community manager who replied to my email told me Hackaday works just fine for them, using their Chrome on Mac. That wasn't helpful.
We are aware of the issue and can hopefully get that resolved for you. There was a misunderstanding in your original email, it wasn't clear that your laptop was a windows machine.
For some reason, my project doesn’t show up in the “All Projects” page. I cant find my project when I visit the “Recently Updated” or “Newest” section.
Also, when I post a comment, the date and time shows up in Chinese.
whatsup with gifs? none of mine seem to load, 500 error each time :(
Hi @alusion - Thank you for reporting, we are looking into it!
I can't change the email address for my account, because it requests a password even though I use "sign in with github". Please help. I wasn't able to find the right person/forum to find help, I hope this is the right place
Hi @Bhavesh Kakwani - Changing the email address directly through Github isn't working. You need to have an email in the system (added through the gold banner or otherwise), then visit the reset password page to set a password. You can then change the email with that password on the account page. If you require any further information, feel free to contact me.
Using the image gallery on chrome on android is a major PITA. Each swipe to a new image is a new page on the stack and requires you to go back through all the images to get back to your spot in the feed.
Come on . At least have one admin to prevent p@#n ads from showing up at 2nd page if you ain't gonna take down spam and fake projects.
+1. I've reported both projects and the user the moment I saw those p@#n ads! Hackaday new projects should go under a reviewing process before being published, to end the proliferation of advertisements and projects without any relevant content.
I have all the images for my build process cropped and numbered, in the manner 01-DoThis.jpg, 02-DoThat.jpg and so on. 30 images for 30 steps of the build, neatly named and appearing in order on a directory listing.
The HAD image icon will add all the images, which is a great time saver since all the images are numbered and the names show which step is being done...
Except the images are added in reverse order. If I select all images, they are inserted into the instructions section last first.
Recommend you change the "multiple" image insert to insert the images in the correct sort order (ie - order in which they appear, when doing a multiple image insert).
Hi. I just finished putting together a ZX80 reproduction based on Cees Meijer’s project https://hackaday.io/project/170707-zx80-replica. It would be nice if Hackaday had a mechanism to post “makes” to honor the author.
Needing help to complete the flashing of a scooter motor controller.
Anybody willing to help me flash and personalize a Lime scooter purchased from a tow yard lot of ugly broken scooters''''
Hi @Hans Soltz - you could try asking a question in the Stack https://hackaday.io/stack or Hack Chat https://hac.io/m/2369
I would like the dev team to add a "hide NSFW content" option, I saw things that I didn't really wanted to saw. I think I am not the only one asking for this.
Thanks in advance.
Hello hackers and makers, one problem I am facing is that since i have made my hackaday profile using my "yahoo email ID" the problem i am having is that i can log in to my hackaday.io account from desktop but when i want to log in on my android phone it say this email ID is not valid (this is not an email id). Does hackaday support only gmail id or there's some other issue that i am missing out. How can i solve this problem ?
are you trying to login in android chrome browser or the hackaday app?
I login on android chrome browser. Now its working iam able to login. It was not working from november 2021 to around april 2022 I dont know why.
Thanks sir for your reply 😃

Hi, I created a new project yesterday but it does not appear on the https://hackaday.io/projects page. I tried sort by newest/recently updated etc. I can find the project using the "Find projects and more" search box at the top of the page.
