I can't properly resize images when they're in a table.
I have a table with 2 columns and 5 rows. The rightmost column has images, while the leftmost has rows. (This is the "description" section of my project https://hackaday.io/project/10707-lasercut-optics-bench)
Editing the project, I'd like to make an image bigger. When I click on the resize widget in the LR corner of the image, the image immediately "jumps" to minimum size.
I can resize the image as far as I can drag the mouse down my screen, but that's still not full size. Normally, I'd release the mouse, move the image to the top of the screen, and click the widget a second time to make it even bigger.
But when I click a 2nd time, the image first "jumps" to minimum size again. My resize operation is limited by my ability to drag the mouse to the bottom of my screen, which is not full size.
Update to previous.
I added a new row with image and text. Now I can't change the (last row) image size *at all*, and all images have changed their aspect ratio!
I can't seem to undo this - my only recourse is to painstakingly remove all text and images from the table and throw them into the description in a heap.
I really wish you would implement some sort of consistent pagination that articulates with the images so we can make our sites look good. Consider making the left/center/right and sizing controls do something useful - as it is, they take up space and entice the editor into thinking that they do what they mean.
The two (cropped) images below show (1) what my input looks like in the editor: well formatted with text and looking nice, and (2) what that same input looks like on the project page: formatting goes all to hell, text is wrapped in an ugly manner, and the images with <right> selected are *to the left* of other images.
YUCK!
For the record, this has been a problem for most of a year.
Did anyone else get their account locked?
I get even notifications to my emails but can't reset password as the email address (where I get notification about comments etc.) tells: ''We couldn't find your account with this email." I would actually like to get back that my original account or at least claim the username.
Thanks for reporting this issue...I'll see with our developers and let you know...
Now its for sure, there is a problem with the project view counters, they do not work. Could you please check.
Is there any way to see a list of all the projects I follow?
you can find 'view all button' on your profile page under PROJECTS I LIKE & FOLLOW section
I think there is a problem with the view counters. There are projects with 10 or more likes and just 3 or 4 views????
So I'm looking at a project I'd like to follow or like, but I'm not logged into the site.
I log in through the user/password fields at the top of the page.
Presto! I'm at my own feed or home page or something, rather than the project page I was on. Personally I find that pretty annoying.
Thanks for the feedback! I've noticed this, too. We've added it to the docket!
Also found some annoying "features" in the code snippet tool. I pasted in my c ocde, high light it and click the snippet tool. What it does is default to Ruby. I select no high light and when I am done, the code swallows my opening C brackets among other things. This used to work.
PLEASE do not default to any high lights. Do not mess up the user code.
I am seeing formatting bug:
This is the published page looks like. Obviously it doesn't think that I am yelling loud enough?
This is what it looks in the editor and what I wanted.
This is what the html code looks like using the HTML button inside the editor
What I did is to type and format the "Volume Meter" part afterwards as heading 2. That seems to upset the code that automatically changes the he line to normal. It used to work, but this new code doesn't.
I don't have a choice as I am using WYSIWYG editor. It is the editor in this case that choose to keep my paragraph with the P2 tags when it is supposed to be normal. I tried half a dozen time removing the paragraphs and adding them back hoping to remove whatever tags the editors thinks it had. What a waste of time on a buggy editor.
Why is there no way to report spammers on hackaday.io? I got a message from someone asking me to back their kickstarter. I'm guessing they sent it to everyone on hackaday.io. The username was c.hbard.85. I won't link his website.
there is 'Report as inappropriate' option on profile page.
It's awesome that you have latex equation support. I wonder if it would be possible to enlarge the rendering a bit, though. Some subscripts, like the B_z below, are greeked at the current size:
I've tried the usual latex tricks to enlarge the equations - it's difficult even in a full latex environment, and seems impossible in the embedded latex here. I think just increasing the image rendering size a bit might fix it. Thanks!
Pressing space after pasting a URL means the last segment of the URL doesn't get styled as part of the URL.
E.g. http://hackaday.io/test
Even though the link seems to go to the right place.

It looks like all uploaded images end up in the gallery. I have some images (little figures accompanying text passages) that I'd like to remove from the gallery, but there appears to be no way to do this (unless I'm missing something, which would be completely in character :-)
Hi Ted for now the gallery is auto populated from the project's images. I could see how you might want to exclude some images.
Links to comments, comments on instructions or "read more" type links for projects in the feed seem to be giving me 404.
(mobile chrome)
Hey jacksonliam did you see this on all feed read more type links or just some?
I think it might just be links to comments on instructions e.g this link https://hackaday.io/instruction/8678#j-discussion-58465 or this one https://hackaday.io/instruction/8678/#j-discussions-title to this project https://hackaday.io/project/8678 404.
Regarding eMail notification with subject: "%user% mentioned your project" I suggest to change it to "%user% mentioned your project %projectname%";
Background: I got two of these mails, but it is not mentioned which project of mine was referenced to and I cannot figure it out by reading the post. So this feature is more or less useless to me as-is. I can only guess that something like "if %projectname% in %post% then send mail" is going on?
Thanks we'll look into making the mentioned project clear.
Feed reported 12 new items unread, but only found two actually, distinctly unread items.
I want to +1 BigEd's observations too. A contributing factor for me: no visual distinction between item boundaries leads to a very cluttered feed, which makes reading it difficult.
Too much stuff appearing in the feed. I keep seeing the same projects updated - are all these real and distinct updates? What changed?
I see stack messages - there seems to be no way to unsubscribe.
And there's no way to see which feed messages I have and have not read.
(I had to split that into three messages because when I did one with the links it truncated it.

Table editing is almost impossible if the rows are unpopulated.
Add a table with 5 rows, fill the top 2 rows, and save. When you next edit the table, the unfilled rows are tiny and don't align with the cursor for insert (ie - the cursor positioned to insert at the first blank row is not visually "in* that row).
Newly added rows are normal height, but the old rows are still too tiny to use.
Image below shows edited table with original blank rows (tiny) and added rows (normal size).
