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

Older Posts Code Blocks are broken
It appears that on older posts the code blocks are completely broken. For example https://aninterestingwebsite.com/forums/thread/678075 show the code block as a single inline value. Looking at the HTML this is what I see generated <code class="hljs block shell language-shell">Code Block shell#!/bin/bashrm -rf output/rm -rf simulator_fat/mkdir simulator_fatlibs=( "lib_static" ) #Add for i in "${libs[@]}"do lipo -create arm64_simulator/$i.a x86_64/$i.a -output simulator_fat/$i.a xcodebuild -create-xcframework -library simulator_fat/$i.a -library arm64/$i.a -output output/$i.xcframeworkdone</code> Obviously newer code blocks seem to be working (as long as the one above is) but it wreaks havoc trying to look at older posts.

Requesting review of repeated incorrect ad flags on my posts; case #102735958673 opened via support page
My original thread ID was: https://aninterestingwebsite.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.

Posting forum reply causes an error, but the reply is posted anyway
I've tried several times to post a reply to a message, but I got an error message instead, telling me to try again in a few minutes. I just found out that it did post my replies, without telling me. So now there's many duplicates of the same reply, one for each of my attempts. I'm using Firefox 144.0.2 (aarch64) on macOS 26.1 (25B78).

Profile Page Doesn't List All Threads
In a completely different thread mungbeans wrote: [quote='865903022, mungbeans, /thread/806960?answerId=865903022#865903022, /profile/mungbeans'] the forum only seems to archive posts from 2021 onwards. [/quote] I didn’t want to hijack that thread so I’ve started this thread for it. AFAICT forums hasn’t lost any content since we moved to a world-readable platform back in 2015. See here for more about that. A quick search suggests that your earliest thread was this: importing Contacts fails with "Cannot import module being compiled". (I’m not sure why I didn’t reply at the time.) What is interesting is that your profile page is only showing threads back to 2021. I see two parts to that: You have to choose Created as the sort order. That’ll show threads you created back to Jul 2016. However, there are still a few threads before Jul 2016 that aren’t showing up. I’m not sure what’s going on there, but I’ve reported it internally (i. 99636235).

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://aninterestingwebsite.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://aninterestingwebsite.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://aninterestingwebsite.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://aninterestingwebsite.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?

Where are the forums heading to ?
Since a few weeks, I feel the content of the forums is less and less interesting. Probably 80% (not to say 90%) of the posts are about complains about review process, a serious question for those who have a problem but questions on which other developers can do absolutely nothing even if they bothered. Forum is becoming a wailing wall. With such a trend (but what to do to change it ?), forums will soon be of no interest at all, which is really unfortunate for the developers community.

Sandbox Server Notifications V2: requestTestNotification returns 200, but no delivery to Webhook URL
I’m experiencing a confusing issue with App Store Server Notifications (Version 2) in the Sandbox environment. I've configured my Sandbox URL, but I'm not receiving any notifications despite successful API responses. App Details: App ID: 6753059790 Bundle ID: com.xmojong.widgetTest Sandbox URL: https://webhook.site/97938287-07e8-4482-a053-b6ccfca76634 The Problem: I am calling the requestTestNotification endpoint via the App Store Server API. The API call is successful and consistently returns a 200 OK status code. However, no notification (Type: TEST) is ever delivered to my Webhook.site endpoint. What I've verified: Endpoint Accessibility: I tested the Webhook URL by sending a manual POST request directly from my iOS app; it was received instantly. Configuration: The URL is correctly entered in the Sandbox Server URL field (not Production) in App Store Connect. Notification Version: It is set to Version 2. Propagation Time: It has been over 3 hours since I updated the URL and saved the changes in App Store Connect. JWT Token: The JWT for the API call is valid (verified by the 200 response from Apple). My Question: If the requestTestNotification API returns a 200, doesn't that mean the App Store server has successfully queued the notification for my specific URL? Is there a known delay for Sandbox notification delivery or URL propagation recently? Or are there any hidden requirements for the Sandbox environment that I might have missed? Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Unable to Save my build
I am unable to submit my app EggZap for review. When I navigate to my iOS App Version 1.0 submission page, I can make all edits and save successfully — screenshots, description, keywords, contact info all save without issue. However, as soon as I add a build to the submission and click Save, the button turns red with a ! error indicator and will not save. Removing the build allows the page to save normally again. The build (Build 51) is fully validated and shows as Complete in TestFlight. It is fully playable via TestFlight on my device. I have tried multiple browsers on multiple devices with the same result. Browser console shows a 409 Conflict error from the PATCH endpoint when saving with a build attached. I have already contacted Apple Developer Support (Case ID: 102858642503) but wanted to reach out to the community as well. I have seen other posts about this same issue but no real answer on how it was fixed. Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions appreciated.

Unauthorized: Access to this place or content is restricted
When I was reading a topic written by somebody, suddenly, the web browser (Safari) directed me to this Unauthorized error page. What the hell is this, Apple, Inc? It seems that things are quite chaotic about what Apple, Inc. does these days. I hope they will manage to sort things out.
