More spam on these forums...
... and yet, Apple's staff think it's appropriate to post lame responses thanking them for their interest in the forums. Come on, guys! It's obvious spam! Mark it as such and delete it. It's not beyond your abilities to stop people posting the word "WhatsApp" plus a phone number. You already stop us posting certain web links, so you can do this. If you continue ignoring the spam problem, then these forums will become less and less useful. Why should I contribute my free time to help others when you won't even help us?

Can't post
Hello, I tried posting about an issue I'm experiencing with HCE, and no matter the text I type, I get error "This post contains sensitive language. Please revise it in order to continue." Is there any option to resolve it?

"View the thread" link in email notifications could use an improvement
I watch some topics in the developer forums and when those topics are updated, I receive email notifications. That notification contains a link with the text "View the thread" which I believe is meant to take you to the corresponding latest reply in that topic. For example, I was watching this thread https://developer.apple.com/forums//thread/792453 and when the latest reply there was posted to I received the notification with the "View the thread" link which pointed to https://developer.apple.com/forums//thread/792453?answerId=872080022&replyId=872080022. However, clicking on that link redirects me to the login page. I think it would be better if that link was https://developer.apple.com/forums//thread/792453?answerId=872080022#872080022 which would have taken me to the appropriate reply without forcing a login. Is that something that can be considered?

"Watching" tab is empty
Nothing ever shows in my "Watching" tab. I've tried toggling the watch (bell) button on & off for threads I'm trying to watch, but this doesn't help. The setting sticks per thread, meaning that if I start watching a thread and reload the page, the icon shows as filled. These threads just never show up in the "Watching" tab for me. The only thread I saw mentioning this is from 2021 (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/681641). Starting a new thread since that was was marked as answered.

Developer Forum Link to SIWA documentation incorrect
Hello, I notice the link on top of this site is incorrect: https://developer.apple.com/forums/tags/sign-in-with-apple-rest-api Its target (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sign_in_with_apple/sign_in_with_apple_rest_api) does not exist. It should probably be https://developer.apple.com/documentation/signinwithapplerestapi

My photos will not post in the thread, this happens when I select a picture.
This is supposed to be a photo of a screen shot I took of this site and this box saying there is no text it is empty when I tried to post my previous post And the box was not empty and the character counter was backwards it was in the negative -. Was -6870/7000 characters. The original post was for a force reset analytic that I found suspicious and malicious towards my device and apple. will not let me post the image

Requesting review of repeated incorrect ad flags on my posts; case #102735958673 opened via support page
My original thread ID was: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/805350 This was a technical post with no links to products or services, but directly to native code designed to solve the problem I was posting about. I believe a single unhappy user may be abusing the flagging/reporting feature. I am contesting what this single user has alleged, namely that my content is “advertising.” Under my rights as per the Apple Developer Forums Agreement, I am requesting a review per Apple’s right to monitor and correct moderation actions. Thank you.

No more possible to properly size images in a forums post ?
I used to resize images (editing width and height when writing the post) in order to avoid ridiculously large images in reading published post. Since a few weeks, that does not work anymore. When I edit, I see the reduced size in Live Preview: But once posted, images are much larger as seen below: Looks like the image is now resized to fill full width. I filed a bug report: Dec 27, 2025 at 1:43 PM – FB21446929 PS: that change ignores @eskimo wise advice "Quinn’s Top Ten DevForums Tips" n°10 (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/706527).

Cannot access profile page of individual DTS engineers
Until recently, it was possible to view the profiles of every user who posted in the forums. The profile page would then have links to posts/replies and other pages so that one could "follow" the recent comments by those users. However, it appears that it no longer is possible to view a profile of individual "DTS Engineer". What I mean is I can no longer view their profile page and as a result the recent posts/replies that a specific "DTS Engineer" makes. It's especially a loss because posts made by such engineers are very helpful and valuable and not being able to easily follow such posts on a single page makes the forum software less useful. Is there a way the previous feature can be brought back?
