I'm using Win7 & Firefox, and reading previous messages is impossible when anyone is commenting on any channel.
I've let the devs know. We'll see what we can do.
Found something annoying - when I mention someone and hit enter in a comment or message window, then every word written after it will be deleted after hitting enter again. Super annoying.
Dave - I think I saw that same issue during our last hack chat. Which browser are you running?
I am unable to update my profile. Even when I log in, it tells me my username is already taken.
Hi Daniel,
This could typically mean that the username you are trying to set has already been assigned to a different hacker. Could you please try updating with a different username? If it still doesn't work, please let us know.
I'm using the .io site from a few computers, all of them using recent and up-to-date firefox running various OS-es (variants of Linux and windows).
Once I log into the site from particular computer with name/password and then, every time I restart PC/broswer and open the .io site, I'm automatically re-logged again, as expected. However, once I log in from different computer, the login credentials from the first computer are "forgotten" and I have to log in on it.
I don't think it is local computer problem, the behavior is consistent for a months on different platforms. It's not any major annoyance, just a little thing to tune.
Thanks Jaromir - I'll let the devs know about this one.
Hi,
Most of the icons from the 'Greek' tab in the 'Latex Equations' editor does not correspond with their actual letters.
E.g.: If you press the icon showing the 'pi' symbol, in Latex will be typed the 'tau' symbol instead. As a workaround, if you type '/pi' in the text window, then the correct 'pi' symbol appears in the formula.
That's odd - it used to work. Thanks @RoGeorge - I'll let the devs know.
You seem not so sanitize users' names (and possibly comments) for emails and other stuff.. For example, @er.nick1512@ is extemely broken.
Thanks for the feedback. It's on our todo list to tidy up. Cheers!
Why do only the first ten components show up in my project? https://hackaday.io/project/945-affordable-programmable-robot-arm The list is much longer.
There should be a button/link to 'see all components' when there are more than 10. If there isn't for you, can you let me know which browser/os you are using? Thanks!
How do I embed vines in my project updates? I can't get the video to show up
I don't think we support them yet. I'll put it on the wishlist.
My exterior links are cutoff short making it look like I can't spell, I don't really care but others who might really be into spelling probably care.
You can also add the links in the details or project logs if you'd like to list references. There's not too much room for long external link titles. Sorry
I'm following @Mike Szczys and notifications about him giving a badge to a bunch of HaD contestants made about dozen or two boring pages in my feed, just like this
It's probably only once per year, but I'm perhaps not the only from 1,2k of his followers wishing to have option to filter it out :-)
Is there a chance that we get some project stats like they have on thingiverse? Something where every update/event, skull and follower is in there from the time of creation.
That would be nice. I'll put it on the wishlist :)
Even a bargraph strip like Github with individual squares having colours indicating activities over the past month would be great.
Using alt-backspace in the message editor results in a word and the preceding space being deleted. The behavior in most other software is that only the word is deleted. Please change this? :)
please add VHDL and verilog syntax highlite support to the code snippet applet
Yahknow what'd be nice...? If the feed somehow grouped things in some sort of category that could, maybe, be "droped-down"... e.g. "updates by author [since you last checked the feed]" a listing of authors with maybe a snippet of their latest/most-verbose update, and a drop-down arrow that would show the remainder of their updates since the last time you checked your feed... could also do updates by project, etc as different categorizations...
A variation on this: Give the user a few categories of notifications (for example: followed projects/users, comments, follows & skulls, other) and have them expand when they're clicked on.
Or maybe something else entirely.
Project logs shown on the main project page don't include author information. This is usually no problem when there is just one author. However, I just wrote a project log where several people contribute, and now that I saw it on the main project page I noticed that author information is important there in order to clarify who wrote it. Currently this information is only visible when the project log is actually opened by clicking on its header.
I've added this to the todo list. Thanks for the suggestion.
In order to let more people know about the .stack, I propose the following changes:
- Stack notifications in the feed should use the same layout as on the stack page. (-> voting arrows should be there, too!)
- If somebody you follow posts a stack page and people give it a lot of points, you should get an email.
- Posts with at lot of points could have the point amount highlighted or bold
I'm not sure how "a lot of points" should be defined, but at the current usage of the stack, it would probably be enough to count all projects that hit the ~90th percentile of points in all the posts from the past week or so.
Good points. Anyone else got suggestions for the stack? I'll compile a list. Cheers!
Anyone else have some private messages disappear? I had 4 or 5 completely disappear today. Thought it was maybe a browser issue, but it's consistent across my work and home laptop and my phone as well as multiple browsers (only tried chrome and opera).
There was an issue, but normal service should have resumed now!
While I love @mentions, it would be great if, in chats, people in the chat would: 1. show up at the top of the list, and 2. be there as soon as you type, without having to wait for the server's response.
In my summary I use "I'm" but the single code shows up like a html code. But this only found it in the hackers who skulled list.
Please add instagram image link support. I regularly post to instagram first and then add the links to my had.io posts, but they don't get "pulled in". :(
Hey Dan, I'll put in a ticket for this. Thanks for suggesting it.

Is the autoscroll down in the message area new? It's really annoying to read older stuff now.
