Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

I'd like to add a rotating banner (known as a carousel) to the home page of my WordPress site. I've looked through the settings in WordPress and I don't see an obvious way to do this. I've seen o...
My website host gives me a single document root directory for all my domains. I'd like to separate out each of my domains into a separate subfolder. Can I use .htaccess in this directory to confi...
My .htaccess files doesn't seem to be doing anything. I've created one in my document root directory and put a redirect into it: Redirect 301 / https://othersite.example/ However, the redirect...
I have personally never been all that keen on the term 'Webmaster' for 2 reasons: It implies a certain level of competency that has already been attained rather than talking of levels of knowled...
My web server is logging in combined log format and my host gives me SSH access to my server where the logs are stored. I see entries in the log file for 404 errors like: 10.10.10.10 - - [10/Jun/...
I'm sure there's a program somewhere that parses common log entries, but I don't know what it is. However, the task as stated is pretty simple so I'd try hack something together myself. You need to...
Some web hosts bundle DNS (pointing domain towards an IP) and hosting (serving the site at some IP) together. Those might have some specialty tools to tie the two together. The usage of those will ...
A good strategy is building the main power lines in a ring. Suppose you have some power source, like the customs house connection or a power plant, and a single power transformer which will go to ...
On harder difficulties, it's easy to run out of money in the beginning and get stuck with no way to progress. How can I create a positive cash flow early on?
There are a few ways. Some of them are somewhat exploity, so it is up to you what you consider "fair" - although the game is in early access so the balance is not perfect either. Start with high...
DNS specifications say that CNAME records can't co-exist with other records at the same level. That precludes using a CNAME at the apex because there are other record types that have to be attache...
Feeding five luminous stones to each dondon provides the best chance for them to produce rare gems. According to this Redit thread, dondons may never produce diamonds when you feed each dondon onl...
I am trying to edit the title of https://proposals.codidact.com/posts/288625 to simplify it. However, the text box for title goes red and I can't do so. How can I edit the title?
I remember seeing some Finance questions on our Incubator Q&A? Where did they go? I can't find them!
Suppose I want to use OSB for a home renovation project. The OSB will be permanently attached in a habitable part of the house. It will be exposed directly to the room, without any coating, films, ...
I have a 1/2in OSB board with "32/16" stamped on it. This means that when used as flooring, it the supporting joists must be spaced 16in or denser (32 is for roofing). However, if I did put it on ...
I recently uploaded an image to a question. I didn't encounter this problem, although I would expect that I should have. I'm able to view the image with Right click -> Open image in new tab and...
Maybe your switch is starting to wear out. The contacts might not be making solid contact when the switch is supposed to be on. To test this, replace the switch. If it now works, toss the old on...
There is the obvious answer that points out that since $y \in \{0, 1\}$, we would end up with invalid values for computing the logits. However, by transforming the labels to have values $\tilde{y}...
1 and 2 are OK, but 3 and 4 are not. Manufacturers and suppliers come and go too frequently and may be quite different around the world. These kind of "which brand is best" answers also tend to b...
In the following scenario: A person is not running for President of the U.S. Somehow, they receive a large number of votes as a write-in candidate, and secure the election victory. They decline ...
Backstory: So I had an idea where there's this secret society type organization with a specialized super-powered group to deal with serious and major threats. After something of a civil war breaks...
I noticed that Codidact has very less variety of communities. What about chemistry?
Some amount of jargon specific to the site domain is expected and necessary. However, "home improvement" is very broad and not a specialized niche. You don't go to college to get a degree in Home...
Undergrounds is a garden of Eden The people undergrounds love to live there. They have all they need and have not developed an urge to go overground (yet).
