When we post in "STM32 MCU Products" category, there are per-series labels.But no such labels in ":Embedded Software". This is a pity because the firmware libraries may be specific to the STM32 series. 

We're all too familiar with the old "Invalid HTML" thing:https://community.st.com/t5/feedback-forum/what-invalid-html/m-p/639096/highlight/true#M1023Usually, just pressing 'Post' again accepts it.But not today:Note that both 'Cancel' and 'Reply' are greyed-out!Even deleting the entire editor content didn't re-enable them.

 

Hello,   I asked this several times, with no avail so long, lets try another time: E.g. "https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers-microprocessors/stm32-32-bit-arm-cortex-mcus/documentation.html"sorts the documents alphanumerical by their name. In most cases not very usefull. There are up and down arrows right to "Latest update", but regardless if you click up or down, now sorting is with oldest first, Only a second click on any of the two arrow sorts by newest first. This is what returning user wants to see: What document has changed. And for a new visitor, all three sorting manner have no avail. => Make sort by newest the default!   Thanks  

When logging in to community.st.com, there is a checkbox for "Remember me on this computer". In all other systems that have this option, it sets a cookie in the browser with a reasonably long timeout (one month or so) and is renewed whenever the site is revisited. For this site, however, that checkbox does not seem to do anything. I must log in over and over and over again. Frustrating and harms usability. Does this actually work as expected for anyone?I have verified that my cookie settings are the defaults for st.com.

We have dozens of tags ("labels") e.g. in the STM32 products subforum. This might be an useful tool to select relevant group of posts. However, the window, where the "labels" are selected is too small, displaying only perhaps half a dozen of tags at one time. The "previous/next" buttons might be a somewhat clumsy solution, but they are not, as one can't rapidly click on "next" to get to the needed group of tags, because the window resizes thus the "next" "jumps" from below the cursor.Can this please be somehow improved and make actually usable?Thanks,JW

I get an error message when trying to create a support request (a.k.a. OLS case/ticket).I don't know who my Salesforce admin is or how to contact them.

To the keeper of the community forum.HiI tried to attach a small test project written with STM32CubeIDE. I tried it as a zip, but that was not allowed. The advisory for the file attachment wrote that .tar files were allowed.  I used 7zip to make a tarball, of 9.3 MBytes. It seemed to upload; progress bar etc, then disallowed the tarball. The post i wished to attach the file to was:https://community.st.com/t5/stm32-mcus-products/stm32-cubeide-how-to-set-values-in-dtcm-to-non-zero-values-using/m-p/724368#M261855 We were able to upload such files in he old version of the forum, why not now? Is it a security issue or what?Is there a work-around?It is quite frustrating. Simple problems can be articulated with code snippets etc in the body of the posts, but having a working complete working program  enable users to work through the code in its entirety and see the context of the code within the project.Kind RegardsRob 

What is going on with STM's website.  No downloads work.  I am on a new PC, no addons, latest Chrome.  Based on my experience in the last 2 years and looking the ST Community, this is a recurring problem. I can download packages thru STM32CubeIDE on an existing installation on another PC.  Those same packages (like TouchGFX) will not download via their website. ST is a huge company with many resources.  I am not interested in continuous workarounds.   I am not interested in spending hours of my time trying to download something that should take 5 minutes. I know the files are "there" in some bucket.  It really seems like ST isn't capable keeping a working website. Why should I even use STM's products if it's going to be a huge headache every time just trying to get software? What choice do I have but to phase out existing designs and abandon ST on new designs?   

The forum allows .z, .7z, but does not allow .zip attachments.Please fix.JW

It looks very unprofessional for a company forum to be overrun by spam to this level. Here was the front page this morning:Have also flagged quite a few posts in the past few days.Perhaps new users bots shouldn't be allowed to create 18 new posts in the first 5 hours they join?Not really here to fix the problem, but given the level of spam, seems like first time posters should be manually "approved" prior to them showing up. Would solve almost all spam issues from new accounts.

I'm trying to post a question but keep getting the following error:"Correct the highlighted errors and try again.""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 submit the message when you are satisfied."There is no HTML in the message and no other highlights that I see. But when I click "Post", i get the same message over and over.  I've tried deleting the code I pasted in, but still get the same problem. 

1. I know that html is the underlying format to the posts, but other users may not be aware of it, so the formulation is confusing for them.2. more importantly; what invalid HTML was found? I did not use the HTML edit mode in that post. I might've typed in something which offended the checker, but it should've pointed out exactly what, and not just removed something without my knowledge and consent.How hard it may be to understand that POSTS ARE NOT TO BE MUTILATED!!! (even if it may sound as innocent as removing noses from hand-written smileys).JW

Hello, st.com on my system does no longer show the "three bars" menu to access e.g. "products. Hava a look at appended screenshot. 

Good afternoon.I'm not sure this is the place to post this but here's the issue.  As of today, 9/13/2024, when I go to the st.com website I get an endless barrage of ST adverts that can't be stopped or bypassed.  I never get to the login panel, there's no search options and I don't know how long or how many ST pages will be displayed before the site releases the page to get something done.  How do I stop the page so I can get somewhere else in the st.com domain.  I'm unable to search, download, or log in. TJM

I did not found the latest EMRT report. thanks!!!

Same symptom as already reported by so many people.After clicked thru all legalese stuff and logged in - downloads won't start.Instead there's the spinning thing, it just spins endlessly. No error messages. Browser: Edge on windows 11, all updated.Suspicious point: after log in, my name is missing. As if the log in has no effect.  

I've seen it in a few user posts, and now in this Knowledgebase article:https://community.st.com/t5/stm32-mcus/porting-and-using-x-cube-eeprom-with-any-stm32/ta-p/570539 If I copy that into a code block, I see this: uint16_t address = 0x0001; // 16-bit virtual address between 0x0001 - 0xFFFE inclusive uint32_t data = 0x12345678; // Dummy Data status = EE_WriteVariable32bits(address, data); if (status != EE_OK) { if (status == EE_CLEANUP_REQUIRED) { if (EE_CleanUp() != EE_OK) { Error_Handler(); } }  EDIT:After posting, that appears like this:Which is as expected - with line numbers & syntax highlighting.So what is that thing in the Knowledgebase article? It's also missing the 'copy to clipboard' button!

It would be useful to be able to specify the starting line number in a source code block; eg, see:https://community.st.com/t5/stm32-mcus-products/how-to-use-stm32-lis3dh-driver/m-p/719871/highlight/true#M260772 (Yes, there are plenty of more pressing issues with code blocks - this is just a "nice to have")

When editing a post, the strikethru (like this) style is missing. I clicked the area where the "..." should be to be sure there is no button. This is definitely a new bug. I could edit posts with strikethru before. Have noticed it a few times lately. Tried reloading the page. Nothing. Came back 15 minutes later and it shows up again. Re-looking at this screenshot of the issue that I took, maybe I should have clicked the "back" icon on the left? I don't know what that would do. It's there when creating a post: But it only happens sometimes. On other posts, it's clearly visible: 

Example image without zoom controllRe: ThreadX thread and queue names not displayed p... - STMicroelectronics Communityexample with zoom controll i cant found now , but sometimes is showed bottom on image  and i mean this zoom control is required on all any image. 

hi would like to request REACH 240 report. Please assist thanks.

 Doesn't happen in the thread itself: https://community.st.com/t5/stm32-mcus-embedded-software/stm32l4-hal-rtc-functions-do-not-check-hrtc-gt-instance-before/m-p/703427 

These two notifications refer to the exact same post:He couldn't have mentioned me without making a reply, so I really don't need two separate notifications!EDITAnd why are the two email notifications sent 7 minutes apart?!
