Hi everyone. The new Adobe Community experience is officially live! You’re now looking at a reimagined space designed to make it easier to connect, share feedback, and see how your ideas help shape Adobe products.

What’s new

A clearer way to share ideas and feedback

Feature requests and bug reports now have dedicated spaces, clearer status indicators, and voting—so it’s easier to see what’s gaining traction and what’s already in progress.

Better visibility into what’s happening

You can now track the status of feature requests and bugs as they move from idea → in development → released. When something you’ve voted on changes status, you’ll be notified.

Cleaner navigation, less noise

Discussions, announcements, and product feedback each have their own place—making it easier to find answers, discover what’s new, and focus on what matters most to you.

Richer posts and conversations

Create posts with images, videos, code blocks, and file attachments to share context, examples, and workflows more easily.

Stronger connections with Adobe teams and peers

Your community activity now connects to your Adobe ID, helping us better understand feedback and engage more meaningfully with the people using our products every day.

Your content is still here

All posts, replies, solutions, feature requests, and bug reports created on or before November 16 are already available. Content created between November 17 and launch day will be added soon—no data will be lost, and you won’t need to recreate anything.

Jump in

Explore your product communities, upvote ideas you care about, ask questions, and share what you’d like to see next. This community works best when your voice is part of the conversation.

Thank you for helping make Adobe Community what it is. We’re excited to keep building it with you.

This upgrade seems to have broken any links to our posts in the older forum site, for example when I try to access my post Re: Acrobat Pro crashes when using NVDA with Visual Highlight setting turned on (https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/acrobat-pro-crashes-when-using-nvda-with-visual-highlight-setting-turned-on/m-p/15673991#M529449) I am just redirected to the forum homepage and my account shows no posts or replies, which is not correct. Can we please have our existing posts and threads moved over to this new forum correctly?

Did you make that post since November 17? According to the top post,

Content created between November 17 and launch day will be added soon—no data will be lost, and you won’t need to recreate anything.

I tried a couple of links in my email archives from before then (as old as 2020) and they worked.

@johnrellis oh yes I posted since Nov 17, thank you for pointing that out! OK hopefully I’ll see my thread soon then 🙏

Just wondering, but why is this post in Photoshop Ecosystem? Should it not be in https://community.adobe.com/announcements-96 or something? :)

We had to choose this option because of limitations in the current platform. We will continue to refine the experience in the future as we make changes to these features.

Please tell us about email subscriptions.

Apparently the old ones were also lost in conversion.

When I navigate to “InDesign” and click the top right bell left from “Create Post” I get a blank “Notifications – You don’t have any activity yet”. No way to subscribe.

In Settings » Notifications there is a setting for “groups and categories you subscribed to” so there must be a way. But then, is that limited to browser notifications?

Same. I’ve looked everything. I usually wake up to a one or two dozen emails, so apparently I’m no long subscribed to anything. But darn if I can find where I’m supposed to subscribe.

When I look at a post, the order of replies is newest first. But I want it oldest first, so I can change the setting for a thread and now oldest reply is first. Great, but when I go to the next thread, the setting doesn’t stick, it is set to newest first and I would have to change each thread to be in the order I want to read the thread. How do I make this change to stick for all threads?

When I navigate to the Lightroom Classic forum, the newest message is from months ago. How do I sort this so the most recent messages appear at the top?

@dj_paige

If you read the first post, you’ll see that new posts will be added later. In the meantime, we can entertain ourselves reading post from 2 months and older. Alternatively, take break from the forum for a week or so.

Ok thanks @Ian Lyons will do!

My list of direct messages is empty.

Is that still on the todo list or shall we consider it a total loss?

Hi Dirk — thanks for the question. Our approach was privacy-first. Direct messages are private by nature and governed by platform-specific permissions and historical access rules. During a migration, even small differences in how platforms model identity and access can unintentionally change who can see private conversations. And more broadly, we also recognize that some members may not be comfortable with their private messages being transferred to a new platform. To protect members’ privacy expectations, we intentionally did not migrate private messages — so an empty DM inbox in the new community is expected.

Wait, what? The transition to the new system has lost all previous DMs? I don’t recall any warning that we should take note to preserve any. Did I miss it, or was that overlooked?

I expect howls of dismay and derision over this one, if it’s as you say. Of course, it will take time (perhaps days or weeks) for some to notice it, and even then most end users won’t even know where to raise the concern.

@Preran also, Is there any way to show all, instead of having to click on show more repeatedly

...and is there a way to see all the replies without having to expand them?

Ged_Traynor

Community Expert

@Preran for notifications, is black on or off

Hi @Ged_Traynor - thanks for asking. Slider to the right side/black background means that these email notifications are on. I’m noting it on our side to improve the coloring.
