Cannot close my own threads
Since recently, when I try to close a thread I created on an answer of mine, I get the following error: Trying later, next day, does not solve it. In the list of all threads, the post is not marked as answered. But if I look via Chrome or plain Safari, I see the answer itself is marked as correct: Which is not the case when opening in Safari Technology Preview (Release 233) where the same answer is still to be accepted:

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).

"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?

Allow suggesting changes to topic and tags on other people's posts
Many posts on the Apple Developer Forums are categorized incorrectly. It would be nice if there was a way to suggest changes to the topic and tags that someone else's post is filed under and have these changes be able to be approved either by a forum admin or the original poster.

How to modify the title of a post in the Developer Forums?
Hi, Developer Support answered my original question by email telling me that I should ask my question here, because I have reached the wrong Support team... Here is my question: I have asked for some help in the forum about SF Symbols, but at last the solution I have found by myself was much more general than the original title of my post suggested. Now, In order to better share my foundings and better help the community about the subject, I think that a more general title would be appropriate. It's about using Affinity Designer to create custom SF Symbols, where my original title only mentions my difficulties about creating such symbols. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/788403 Can I modify the title of my post by myself (if yes, how?) or should a Forum admin do that for me? Thank you in advance for your help, Marc

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?

How can I get details on moderation removals?
I’ve had a series of replies, comments, and even an entire thread removed with no explanation. I assume they were moderated, but I haven’t received any reasons. Is there a Forums support contact (email or chat) where I can ask for specifics on why they were removed? I’d like to understand what’s triggering moderation so I can avoid it in the future.

Show number of pages of search results on Developer Forums
Currently when searching on the Apple Developer Forums it shows the current page number but doesn't show how many pages of results there are total. It would be nice if it also showed the total number of pages of results. FB21655261 https://github.com/feedback-assistant/reports/issues/744

Only make Feedback Assistant IDs links if the signed in user has access to them
Currently all Feedback Assistant IDs on the Apple Developer Forums are links even if the user does not have access to them. It could be helpful if they were only linked when the signed in user has access to them. FB22353186 https://github.com/feedback-assistant/reports/issues/786

Is there a way to change my username?
Helllo, I'd like to change my username. Is there a way I can do that? The one I have is one I made by accident and I would prefer not to create an entirely new apple account.

Dark mode on Apple Developer Forum
It's so bad seeing this light mode... Can I ask Apple to give me an access to their frontend, so I can contribute to their repo with a dark mode feature? Not asking Apple to make the dark theme, but rather asking them let me do it.
