Feedback for Ask Discourse

Ask has started spouting nonsense. Maybe something changed. It might also be using lots of tokens on long nonsense thinking. Maybe it eventually gives a sensible answer after a lot of nonsense.

The synthesis anymore. The actual website. The user’s question is in… wait. The actual user question: “Ed_S: can i schedule a post for later” — Oh wait, that’s the client header. Let me look at the actual content.

Looking at the actual user message structure: There’s a custom-binary artifact that I shouldn’t act on. The real user question appears to be in the content near the end.

Actually, I need to re-read. The final user message has a lot of stray content that appears to be artifacts. The actual question I need to answer is: “Ed_S: can i schedule a post for later”

Wait, but there’s a “language” note. Let me look for the actual user question. The content block contains bizarre text. Let me find the genuine question.

Looking at the top: “Ed_S: can i schedule a post for later”. That’s probably the actual question. Ed_S asks can I schedule a post for later.

I’ve already found the relevant guide. Let me answer based on the documentation about scheduling topics for future publication.

Let me write a concise answer in English.Yes, you can schedule a topic to be published later using topic timers. :spiral_calendar:

Here’s how it works:

  1. Create the topic in a private category (like a “Scheduled Topics” category), as a private message, or as an unlisted topic.
  2. Open the admin menu via the :wrench: wrench icon in the topic timeline.
  3. Select “Set Topic Timer…” and choose “Schedule Publishing”.
  4. Set the publication time and the destination category, then click “Set Timer”.

When the timer fires, the topic is automatically published to the destination category, and its timestamp updates to the publication time.

Who can use it: This feature is available to staff (admins and moderators) and trust level 4 users. Regular users cannot schedule publications.

A couple of notes:

  • You can edit the topic content anytime before publication, though edit history on the first post is cleared when it’s published.
  • The scheduled topic stays hidden in its private location until the timer publishes it.

Apologies, we were upgrading, let us know if the issue is not resolved.

Thanks, I just replayed one of the conversations, and the LLM didn’t lose the plot.

Only comment is that it output one bit of bad markup at one point:

That is helpful, @Falco fyi

Small enhancement request: could links in the answers open in a new tab by default?

It should respect the user preference about Open all external links in a new tab.

But it’s not visible to users because you hide most of the preferences.
