The captcha is too large for a smaller viewport. Is there any reason not to size it dynamically? I've had decent results setting `pre.captcha{ font-size: 1.1vw; }` in `default.css`. Media queries cou…
SQLite WAL mode is not enabled by default. Is WAL mode safe and stable to use in Fossil? I know there are additional steps to manage the WAL journaling file when the repository database is moved, but…

Hi, I download the repolist page from a script to easily clone and sync all my repositories from unprivileged places. Can the robot defense be disabled? I see `robot-exception` and `robot-restrict…

Hello all, I just announced LumoSQL in [the SQLite forum](https://sqlite.org/forum/forumpost/09ce253f31). From the point of view of Fossil/libfossil users: * this version now works for all Foss…
I am using dark mode for several repos and it works great, when I include pikchr diagrams in embedded docs these have good contrast by default. However, when I create a ticket it has a light grey bac…

I have lots of tickets in various states in one repo. I want to stop using that repo and start using another (after refactoring source code). How can I copy all the tickets in the first repo to the s…

Hello all: I was redoing my skin based on the eagle skin to see if I was breaking the new forum editor. For development I am running fossil with `--skin skin/directory`. While I was doing that…
