Question

Some threads never appear on InDesign forum's list of threads

I noticed a strange thing:

 

Sometimes I receive an email notification regarding a message in a thread I'm participating in. However, the thread itself doesn't appear on the InDesign forum anymore. That is, it doesn't appear here:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/ct-p/ct-indesign?page=1&sort=latest_replies&lang=all&tabid=all

 

For example, this post:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/changing-linked-color-photos-to-grayscale-or-duotone-in-new-ai-powered-indesign/m-p/15083973#M605309

 

It's nowhere on the list of forum's threads anymore. At least not among January 11 posts. Obviously, the thread was there at some point as I did post replies to this thread.

 

It doesn't happen too often. But I do notice this couple times a month maybe.

 

If this bug only affects threads I'm already participating in, then it's not a big deal as I do receive notifications. However, if some threads simply never appear on the forum for some users and therefore can never be seen, then it's naturally a bigger issue.

It may have been resurrected by a spam or ChatGPT bot which is why you got notified.

But when it was flagged for Spam Abuse, it dropped back down the nether-world where it came from.

 

For this and other reasons, I turned off forum email notifications from my account settings and never looked back.

that doesn't apply in this situation.  a community expert replied on 1/11/25 in that thread.

it's on page 137

ok thanks for finding it. then it's, obviously, in the wrong place.

 

so the problem should be rephrased as:

 

When the InDesign forum is sorted by Latest, some threads don't appear where they're expected to appear.

 

I guess they get stuck among the threads of the thread's creation date, instead of being moved to the date of the last reply?
