| 2011-04-12 01:17:30 -0500 | commented answer | Can I respond to a question via email? I, for one, would love to see a "Respond by e-mail" feature. If duplicate answers are a concern, then perhaps you could consider adding a toggle for the feature in the admin interface. I would be much more concerned about duplicate questions with the "Ask by e-mail" feature... |
| 2011-03-09 16:39:58 -0500 | answered a question | Will Askbot make it possible to share Q&As on a Facebook profile? I believe you can already do this by clicking on the Facebook button next to the question you just asked, for example :) |
| 2011-02-10 22:26:45 -0500 | commented answer | How does the translate tool work? No, not at all important right now. I was just chekcking :) |
| 2011-02-10 22:23:35 -0500 | asked a question | Is "Tags" in the side bar the same as "Recent Tags" in OSQA? Secondly, is there a "Recent Badges" that ever appears in the side bar, as in OSQA? |
| 2011-02-10 19:58:21 -0500 | commented answer | How does the translate tool work? At this point, all I see is the "minutes ago" next to the signature that comes up in a different language... Nothing else for any of the other languages. Is this an open-source thing, and it is necessary now with Google translate pop-ups? |
| 2011-02-10 19:56:14 -0500 | marked best answer | How does the translate tool work? Good point, some of the translations are far from being complete. Also, multilingual support (ability to change language without restarting the app) is experimental and because of that is not in the official repository. I've set it up mainly to demonstrate that there are some more or less finished translations. |

| 2011-02-10 19:32:31 -0500 | asked a question | How does the translate tool work? I click on different languages but very little (even if it is 99.9% in the dropdown menu) actually seems to get translated... |
| 2011-02-10 19:20:41 -0500 | marked best answer | Which is a better database to use for Askbot, PostgreSQL or MySQL, and why? PostgresQL is better because it supports transactions and full text search at the same time. MySQL does not support both at once. MySQL has a few choices of data storage backends - and none of the backends supports those two things at simultaneously. Postgres has very deep support of full text searching - including word stemming, thesaurus matching, ranking, etc. Transactions help to keep data internally consistent and avoid race conditions - when two or more users read and write data simultaneously. P.S. This site still runs or MySQL, my bad. If you use Postgres, the only visible change will be "sort by relevance" option in the question list, that will appear when some search term is typed. MySQL does not have ranking, so no such option. |
