The "whole question in the title" problem seems to have largely gone away, but now we get the opposite - unhelpfully short titles!Only today:So perhaps the 'Posting Tips' need an update ?https://community.st.com/t5/community-guidelines/how-to-write-your-question-to-maximize-your-chances-to-find-a/ta-p/575228@Lina_DABASINSKAITE 

Searching for "module" includes hits for "modulation" :face_with_rolling_eyes: :frowning_face: :thumbs_down: Sure, it can be useful to have "fuzzy" searches like this when you're not quite sure of the term you need - but there really needs to be a way to limit searches to just the exact term entered.Basic search options:Any combination of 1 or more of the words enteredAny combination of all of the words enteredOnly the exact phrase entered

If A asks a question and B replies. If B subsequently returns to edit her reply the prompt she gets above the edit box is "Edit your reply to B". Which is wrong, it should be "Edit your reply to A". More simply, why not just have it say "Edit your reply" and be done with it?

When copying and pasting content, you might often see this error message:  "Your post has been changed because invalid HTML was found in the message body. The invalid HTML has been removed. Please review the message and send the message when you are satisfied."To overcome this problem, you need to paste the content as plain text: Windows users: use the following Keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + V to paste previously copied content into your post. macOS users: use the following Keyboard shortcut Command + Option + Shift + V to paste previously copied content into your post. iOS or iPadOS users: paste a copied text into the Notes App, copy it from there and paste into your post. Android users: choose "Paste without formatting" from the context menu to paste previously copied content into your post.

There are two formats of displaying threads: Linear format (default) - all replies are in one line with the opening post. Threaded format - replies are shifted to the right in relation to the posts that they reply to.   To switch from linear (default) to threaded format, follow these steps: Click on your avatar in the upper right corner and choose “My settings”: Go to “Preferences” > “Display” and choose the “Threaded format”. Once you have made the preferred changes, click “Save”.     Related article: How to set up your profile - STMicroelectronics Community

See for example this helpful post by @Andrew Neilhttps://community.st.com/t5/stm32-mcus-products/stm32-ic-s-unique-id/m-p/657372/highlight/true#M239912 Andrew is a stand-up guy. He wouldn't be this sloppy when posting, but it's not his fault.Whenever someone inserts a "Code" block, in order to get syntax highlighting. Any subsequent edit of the post adds an extra blank line above and below the block. It doesn't matter if you erase them when you edit. They can only grow,like the mythical hydra. The only solution is to remove the code nlock entirely, delete all the blank lines and save the post. Then edit it again, and re-insert the code-block. Then, you must never-ever-ever edit that post again, or you'll have to go through it all over. Come on ST. 2024. AI. 32TOPS in every phone within 5 years. Can we fix the editor please???  

Just remove it. We don't need it. We have the feedback forum. JW

When you subscribe to a thread with multiple participants and a single participant adds a reply, you get a notification.But the title of the notification includes the name of everyone in the thread who have commented so far ("A and B replied to topic", "X and 2 others have replied", etc') rather than the most recent post which triggered the notification. If there have been multiple comments since you last visited the thread, it's fine to "roll-up" all the comments into a single notification, but if there's only been one comment it's less useful. You might as well just write "a new comment was added to the thread", without naming anyone. This behavior doesn't occur in "Recent notifications" - it just tells you who posted like it should. This looks like a (small) bug to me. 

eg, does the v1.15.0 thread still need to be 'pinned' now that v1.15.1 is there?:thinking_face:

Sometimes (often :frowning_face: ), the OP disappears without marking a solution - even when it is obvious that a solution was found.In this case, I sometimes see that ST Staff will mark the solution.This seems fine to me, but I  think it would be good to distinguish when this has happened.eg, here:https://community.st.com/t5/stm32-mcus-products/what-is-the-smallest-achievable-delay-in-microseconds-for-a-16/m-p/684830#M251961The notification tells me this was marked by ST (@mƎALLEm ) - not the OP:But there's nothing to show that in the thread itself.On the TI forums, they do separately identify, "TI marked this as the solution"

After some period of approximately 2 years my login is rejected as having incorrect username or password. Careful reentry is not successful, I keep getting the same rejection. I conclude that passwords expire after some time.If that is true, why not a message " Your password has expired. Please create a new password" to avoid fruitless attempts to reenter the password that worked the day before?Or correct me if I have the wrong assessment of the problem.

For example here:https://community.st.com/t5/stm32-mcus-products/timer-compare-output-using-dma-stm32f3discovery/td-p/672897there are two code blocks with "View more",buttons. When "View more" on the first code block is clicked, both code blocks are expaneded. However, the "View more" at the second code block remains, and if clicked, nothing happens just that "View more" button disappears.I don't think this is the expected behaviour.JW

The ST community site is often extremely slow, even time outs occur . You access a few pages fine and then it takes a minute or more , time out or error occur.Often trying to Edit a port, it often fails with an error message. Accessing other website is no problem at all. 

I'm reading the interesting posts in the Knowledge base, and wonder, why every article title has to be repeated as the first paragraph? I know this is no paper and internet is cheap. My neurons aren't! Doesn't bother anyone this *** redundancy?! :dizzy_face:The maintainers of this otherwise great site, don't need to do much: just delete some line of code somewhere... I hope it's not done on purpose, just to alienate the readers. :|

I've complained about this before, and got nowhere. It's still completely unworkable. When can we light a fire under the developers to get this addressed? Showing FIVE potential matches might work in a system with SIX users, it is not viable in one with over SIXTY THOUSAND.https://community.st.com/t5/feedback-forum/having-quot-fun-quot-with-khoros-editor-failures/m-p/594201/highlight/true#M518 

Clicking on notification opens the thread so that the last message is displayed. It would be much more useful if it would open on the first unread message.JW

Problem:There are a significant amount of threads where code is pasted as plaintext a thread. As an example, this one, where the user clearly searched for a way to format it as code but couldn't find how:https://community.st.com/t5/stm32-mcus-products/failing-to-read-useful-data-from-adc-of-stm32f411/td-p/631535The underlying issue is that formatting a code block is hidden behind the "..." in the editor.This is despite having more than enough room to accommodate such an important feature.Suggesting:Consider promoting the code formatting to the main toolbar and relegating the following near-useless features to the "..." abyss:Spoiler tags. (Why is this a thing at all?)Insert video.Change font.Change font size.Chang text color.Run macro. (What even is this?)

FYII did not login to myST for a while and now I cannot login to myST anymore. I try a lot of time but always stuck at login page even I press login button. Until I try to press reset password button and change my password to the new. So now I come back to able to access myST account !!!No idea why this happen to me. It took me in suffering for a few day since any support require to login first LOL.

Hi,is there a limit to max 5 PM messages or whats wrong here ?After 4 PM  a limit is here ? Never write again ? or?and then comes HERE :Perfect ! 

I prepare a longer posting with many windows switching to check thing. When trying to post, some authentification prroblem window popped up and I see no way to recover the prepared post. I am not happy with that . Argh!

.... so users can find the wiki easier. Will the Knowledge base section migrate to the wiki eventually?
