Issue with new UI of the CodeChef Practice

[suryasiriki4]

I want to bring to your notice that the UI in the practice problems has some issues.

We can’t navigate to the questions with a particular number of submissions easily. We have to hit the next arrow-like 75 times to reach some parts of the list. previously it used to be fine.

I think this is a major bug and has to be resolved.

Thank you for the platform.

Updates on the CodeChef website - August 2021

When opening the page for peer problems, Google Chrome is stuck for a while (probably because there are so many problems listed). The page doesn’t respond when trying to scroll. If this is the situation with me using a \text{3 GHz} processor and \text{8 GB} Ram, I cannot think of others having low-end PC. One thing you can do is to load only a number of problems (say 100), and allow users to click on a button to reveal the next 100 problems. Or use more pages for the external contest problems, …

Maybe, mine was a bad idea. I asked them to do that for Peer problems since they are numerous. I didn’t think this would affect the experience badly.

Edit: Infinite Scroll can be better I guess.

There is a jump to page button now in the practice section. Rows per page is also added.

The new UI isn’t good. Suppose I sorted the questions bases on submissions, then to reach a specific problem, I have to click the next page arrow again and again which is so annoying. The infinite scroll was so convenient to use. Please look into this matter.

• You can use the jump to page option now.
• The url now automatically updates the filter parameters. So you don’t lose the particular page you were on. For example, https://www.codechef.com/problems/medium?page=5&limit=10&sort_by=non_distinct_successful_submissions&sort_order=desc takes you to page 6 of medium sorted by successful submissions.
