I didn't have a look at gitHub

@steffen

Can you pin the following bug research info layout on the helpers page?
That way people get a better idea what is needed of info to adress their queries.

Also, if we could add a spoiler with the respective prepared markdown code, people can use it to post on github their report.

I don't think there is a version problem

Here you find this same post but on friendica 2021.01, it displays the same than over here. I saw Michael Vogel state that friendica transmits html so I guess this applies here to.
Even than, at some point this "issue" appeared, maybe when markdown was added, so from the publishing stand point there is a version this issue started.

This profile hasn't markdown enabled.
If the issue is because of markdown it's still a bug in my opinion.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but I guess we are also witnessing an error in the /help page discription, as it is [*] instead of [li], isn't it? If so this is also something for to mention or directly fix in the github repo I think.

If you go to github, I'm working on a bug report layout maybe it suits you (attention, this is bbcode!):

@helpers
Hi there.

As the new friendica stable version has come out recently and apparently there aren't mayor problems with the updates I wanted to ask you to consider some suggestions about the helpers/coders/admins etc pp setup we have on forum.friendi.ca

In general terms speaking when ever someone comes up with some bug report or feature request some comment show up saying "go to github and ..".

There are several reasons I consider this is not to helpful and that we should find at least some work around. First of all we all know and are aware by whom github is owned and that there are more than one of us out here who don't like to go to that site for that very reason. At the same time it is where the coding community is, where cross over communication between the fedeVerse platforms can happen and where in any case recruitment and help request for none friendica specific issues can be found or can be published. So even as we have git.friendi.ca as a a very important back up plan and backup tool it most likely will not become part of our production scheme in the near future.

Than there is the friendica community itself, a whole lot of people that are using friendica and have access to the forum.friendi.ca server with the few forum pages that do exist as of now. These are people that might not be skilled in coding itself but could do bug research, publish bug reports, have feature requests or ideas, could help out with standard helpers Q&A or even translation hints or pointing out missing translations.

I do guess that we might have more than one community member out there that is not available to sign up to another site like github or transifex (I guess that's still our translation site?) but would help out if we'd had some more forumpages like @bugresearch, @tutorial, @featureRequests. I could envision even people who love to dedicate some time to administer a forumpage like @tutorial that once some text has been created by the community in such a forum could republish such a text from that very forum page sorting that text into a given category of that forumpage.
Like to say, there is lot's of information that get's discussed or explained and than just "goes down the drain" and get's lost in the stream instead of being pushed into some category of the helpers page where it could be found easily by others.

A bugResearch forumpage for example could have a pinned post containing a bug research template like the following so people could post there findings in the first place and every once in a while someone who does have a github account and signs "responsible" to port those reports to github simple copy-pastes those reports to github with a link to the respective forum post.

Example bug research template for a @bugResearch froumPage on forum.friendi.ca:
