Welcome to the new Adobe community

This is a terrible DOWNGRADE for those of us used to helping other via this forum. There is no way to simply view all threads one has been active in recently as a THREAD. You can only get a list of your own posts, which is totally bonkers USELESS.

You cannot quickly find which threads you have a response in to check.

Very ANGRY here.

There’s no way to search/filter by the author of the post?  That’s a significant drop in productivity and quality for those of us who use the past 15 years of posts to find authoritative information  (Lightroom Classic in my case).  I filter most often by my own user id (22K posts!) and by ​@Rikk Flohr_Photography.

The forums appear to be hosted by Gainsight.com, and their “AI Answers” says:

At this time, searching by post author is a requested feature but not yet available. 

I am having trouble articulating just how bad this change in the community is. 

Issues? Examples? That may take some time. Some members have stated a few, probably as they run into them.

Some, I see right now as I start to compose this screed.

• Heck, in the tool bar at the bottom of this post screen, apparently no spell check. Oh the paper clip might be attended to be that, but it brings up insert photo, just like the insert photo button does.
• No Filter/sort button in at least two topics pages (questions, announcements) just a week recently active pull-down.
• No indication if already visited. Either from before today, or from today
• Notifications empty.
• Just received email that this post got a reply, I click on that, but the reply does not show up directly. Also, no button to view latest.

Highly recommend a link to a new article on how to use the community. Make the link obvious. Note that it appears some changes in syntax has occured, those need to be spelled out. For example, Subscribe vs Follow

.

I always used my Profile to check for responses to posts I’ve been in. How do you do that now? There doesn’t seem to be the option anymore.

I just received an e-mail saying “Your post has new reply” but it wasn’t my post (although I have posted elsewhere in the Thread). The reply is at the link below, but as you can see it is not my post that is being replied to.

Also, when I looked at the thread, I set it to show “Oldest First”. After making this post, the thread reverts to “Newest First”. Come on, this shouldn’t be so difficult, it  feels like zero user input was used to set up this new forum.

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

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?

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?
