Under the tag description are two buttons, watch/unwatch and ignore/unignore.  What   are those buttons supposed to do?  I didn't  see any effects from using them.

What are watched tags and ignored tags? How do they work? What are tag subscriptions? What are interesting tags? On Stack Overflow, the content of the main page question list appears to be influenced by watched and ignored tags. How does that work?   For more information, see &quot;&quot; in the .

Today I found my first ever (to the best of memory) emoji in a post.        Having no idea this was even possible I came here looking for some history. I found there is an  tag. There seems to be consensus that they add little to no value on SE per  &amp;  we also know they don't translate well on all devices    I don't find any history other then this one post  where there is any focused attempt to support them. I don't find any history of discussion on supporting them.    Two questions   Is it possible to disable emojis across Stack Exchange?   If yes   Should we disable emojis across Stack Exchange?

I can make Firefox not display the ugly dotted focus outlines on links with this:  a:focus {      outline: none;  }   But how can I do this for &lt;button&gt; tags as well? When I do this:  button:focus {      outline: none;  }   the buttons still have the dotted focus outline when I click on them.  (and yes, I know this is a usability issue, but I would like to provide my own focus hints which are appropriate to the design instead of ugly grey dots)

I was having a look at an old question of mine when I browsed the  from the timeline. I scrolled downwards and realized the Review completed panel comes along for the ride. While that might be , tags flowing over top of it as pictured below probably isn't.  Here's a .gif of the Question and Duplicate tabs flowing over it as well. Note that the timeline button also flows over. If vote buttons are present, they will also flow over it.  Reproduced on Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Update Per  by Tiago Martins Peres, this issue also happens in other Review types, namely Late Answers, First Posts and Low Quality Posts. In addition to that, it is causing the action buttons on reviews to become unclickable if you scroll low enough.  As a temporary workaround, you can use 's , which  this issue.

I wanted to use two buttons for the same action (Stop - S and Mouse 4), but I cannot find any setting to do so.  Can someone point me on how to do so?

Found this when subscribing to jQuery tag. "unsubscribe | rss" is not shown correctly.

This search should not be searching in any tags:    But it "helpfully" adds the [wpf] tag to my search criteria.  I can't seem to get it to f**k-off-and-do-what-I-say, either.

I have a few places where I use the line below to clear out a status, for example.  I have a few of these that hang out for 10 seconds or more and if the user gets clicking around the action can occur at incorrect time intervals.  window.setTimeout(function() { removeStatusIndicator(); }, statusTimeout);   Is it possible to cancel or kill this with some jQuery or JavaScript code, so I don't have this process hanging around?

I (and probably many other people) have accidentally clicked the wrong button in reviews. For example, I just clicked the Leave Open button when I wanted to click Close. I think many people have done this. I think an ability to undo this would be appreciated.

Related:    Today, we had . This sort of sparked me into coming up with a new feature-request (Can't find a dupe, surprised).  Basically, we should have more control over what does and does not appear in the multicollider. This includes:   Muting comments and/or answers on a specific post. Muting comments from a specific user Ignoring all comments not addressed to you in a post of yours (I don't think this is that good, though--many times comments address both the OP and the other guy). Ignoring certain chat rooms The ability to make answers/comments on posts written by others to ping your multicollider.   Note that "Mute" could mean that it shows up in the inbox, but doesn't trigger the colorful glowing circle on the multicollider.    With the new "notifications" thing, there may be some scope in making certain notifications opt-in or opt-out (not all of these exist, but many would be useful in the notifications tab):   Notification of rejected edit Notification of  posts Notification of change to favorites Notification of certain badges Notification of edits Notification of edits to posts you have upvoted Notification of edits to posts you have downvoted (yes, should be separate)  - Notification of edits to posts you have closevoted

I've got a dashboard that shows both active and unactivated parts of an app (users opt in to a service). Is there any standard for the best way to show an element/section is unactivated? Any way to encourage activation?    I'm sure there are numerous examples out there of apps that have "can't use this till you pay" section, but I can't seem to find anything that would illuminate a standard practice here.  Thanks!  edit: I'm picking this up from someone else's design. Here's my starting point:

I just looked on SO, and found that there are about 12,880 tags with only a single use. There are 26,250 used less than 10 times.  That's just too many for the community to fix. I think we need some automatic cleanup here.  I suggest you add a cleanup process to remove all tags used less than a certain number of times more than a month after their creation. That would give a legitimate tag a while to become used more, while removing those that will never be used more than a few times.    Edit: Here are the tags from page 512. I've highlighted the ones I think are most likely bad tags. I even fixed a few:   installer-class inspector installation-tools insert-worksheet insets insomnia-mysteries inorder inprivate inprocfactory inprocserver in-progress input-button input-buffer input-mask inputformsection insert-nested-select insert-parameters insert-img-to-option insert-data insertdate insert-delayed insertafter insertchildbefore input-mode input-simulation inputpanel inputrc input-redirection inquiry-management inputstreamreader input-string input-testing infocards infochannel infogrid inflector influence info-plist inforeader inform inform7 information-base information-card information-dispersal informed-search information-sources information-technology information-ownership information-science info-vis informx (fixed now) info-window infralution inheritence (typo - fixed) initialcapacity initial-context initialization-block initfileurlwithpath inline-comments inline-cpp inline-edit inlinec initialize-request-handl injectable injectors init-script inittab initwithcontentsoffile initwithcontentsofurl inlinks

We're working on an internal business app, and throughout the process the users have been very involved in all aspects of the design. They have explained their workflow, terminology, etc. and the app models that as closely as possible, with their input at every step.  Most actions in the app can be undone, but there's one action that (per the users' instructions) can't be undone without going into the database and manually changing data. In order to confirm this action, the user has to click "yes" on a modal alert. Alerts are used very rarely in the app; there's only one other action that will bring about an alert.  Neither action is performed very frequently.  However, the users are still somehow occasionally clicking on the wrong action and confirming their choice in the alert (presumably ignoring the text on it).  What's the best way to remedy this?   The text in the alert is a bit long, so we're looking at making it shorter and more to the point, and maybe renaming the buttons so they aren't just yes/no, but we don't know if that's enough. Is there some other way to draw the users' attention and make them really realize what they're doing? Are there proven ways to reduce errors like this?    Our ultimate solution: For now, we're focusing on changing the text and appearance of the alert dialog, as per Matt Lavoie's and André's answers. We made the text shorter and more to the point, added a caution icon and a clear statement that the action can't be undone, and changed the buttons to say what they'll do and not just yes/no.   We also changed the text on the button that launches the action to be red and in caps (all the other button texts are in black and just first letter capitalized).  Finally we made the entire background of the app go bright red when the alert dialog comes up. It's quite jarring, so the users should definitely notice it.  We mentioned the changes we're making to the users, and they were totally in favor of it. If these aren't sufficient we'll add additional input requirements to the alert, as in Andrew Leach's and JeffH's answers.

I think it's since the "No action needed" buttons were introduced, that there are no posts to review in the queues mentioned in the title.  I'm just wondering, why is that? Before that there was plenty to do.

I recently picked up the new Magic Mouse 2.  Since then, the 'Swipe Between Pages' has started working on it's own.  With the old mouse, I turned it off, as I was constantly flipping through web pages accidentally.  Even though the prefs say it is deactivated... it won't stop!  I tried turning it on and back off... no luck.

Soo, I think I accidentally pressed something and I don't know how to fix that. The thing is that keyframes in the timeline are know hidden behind the numbers    The animation still works, I can add new keyframes, but I cannot select any of them as they're hidden... does anyone know how to get back to default settings?

I have many tags marked as "interesting" and others as "ignored". (I use Java at work, I'm a Cocoa guy by night, any anything dealing with Windows/.NET/C# simply doesn't apply to me.) When tags are added to the list in the right navbar, they appear in the order in which they were added. There are several problems with this:   It can be difficult to visually locate a tag quickly, unless you have memorized its location. The tags appear as the same gray boxes like everywhere on SO, but with a small "x" afterward, and they wrap based on size. This tends to leave a ragged right margin and wasted space. Ordering based on when the tag was added is not always the most intuitive default. Various users might prefer to view them alphabetically, by popularity, recent activity, etc.   It would be nice to introduce a tabbed interface to switch between various orderings, and remember the value in the cookie, profile, etc. Coupled with this, perhaps users could specify a custom ordering that works best for them? (Currently the workaround is to copy all the tag names, remove them all, and re-add them in the desired order, but this is obviously annoying.)  Thoughts?
