Can we get the likes/kudos back?
sigs too
edit:Can't Quote, Has to scroll up to post a reply, doesn't show the name of the latest replier from outside.
Seems each post takes a ton of real estate on the screen. Hope that the display format can be tightened up to avoid endless scrolling.
How about getting our ranks and titles back? Post count? Access to previous threads in a concise manner?
Not digging the tiny avatars. But I'm wondering what's up with the posting ones? I see my old blue fairy one when I post, and my new Double Dragon one when I'm see my profile.
Anyone running into this problem?

You're not the only one with the same issue with having a previously selected avatar despite picking a current one. That is unless there is a feature that enables users to change Icons similar to the EU board.
Does the forum software have the ability to nest replies to tell who is talking to whom?
My Avatar seems to be correct.
The link to the Support forum that is listed near the bottom of the support page is broken now due to the change. The link on the site map is fine.
https://support.us.playstation.com/
Also, whether intentional or not, under Help 2-Step Verification is listed twice. It works as one link; so was there an intented icon that didn't get added or missed and the text got put up twice?
Apparently adding images is borked too or I just don't know how to do it. I attempted to add a screenshot but it just showed a broken image no matter what I tried.
Posting here for anyone that may have missed it in general, creating a list of to-dos to help out the development team!
https://community.playstation.com/content/pdc/us/en_US/pdc-communities/playstation-general.topic.html/to-fix_forum_issues-RcBK.html
The list so far:
1. Links don't work
2. No "quote" feature
3. No mentions
4. No signatures
5. Awkward as hell desktop formatting
6. Search is broken
7. "My wall" is broken
8. Editing old info threads removes their links
9. No way to embed videos
10. The forum index (playstation general) does not refresh "last reply"
11. You cannot reply from the bottom of a thread, having to scroll back up to post a reply
12. There's no "back to top" button
13. There's no "reply link", making it impossible to link directly to a specific reply.
14. There's no marker for moderators / admins.
How do I like posts?
No way to look/see if I forummm edit my spelling to tell meee idk'lkjljo as no red line telling me my spelling is off and to drink less?
Took me some time to figure out to click that P logo to get to all the sub forums as I thought i broke!
No report threads option that I see
No way that I see to look up all the forum mod's so to PM if I had an issue to tell them?
I really thought since the last forum coders failed in so many areas that off topic would be put back on here day 1 but no..........
spellinggg is wqrongg to showw no edittits ons showingg me my typings sucks asd it dids.!
☝ It's flag instead of report now, located just below the text on a post (on mobile anyway). When you click it you will get a little pop up with a drop menu. From there, select one of the four options and click flag. You should see I think it was at the top of the post that it was successfully flagged for Moderation.
PSForumsPost, it may not be a bad idea to mention the change in the RoC as well as a short how-to. It may not even be necessary but it would help for those that need it.
Edit: possibly already known but there seems to be no swear filter.
1. These are mostly only taking web browser usable space: The top black bars with only "Sony" at the right side, and the longest search box when there is already a smaller search box that does the same thing. (EDIT: now it does something different?)
2. No easy way to change font size of reply, Some replys have big text and some replys have small text.
3. Typing in new lines (enter in reply box) is stuck with double line, but after reply it goes to single line.
4. While hovering my name at top right, middle mouse click or right click open link in new tab, broken link: https://usstage.io.playstation.com/blah
5. In a pop up on my name at top right, "My wall" only reloads the page and doesn't go anywhere.
6. https://community.playstation.com/content/pdc/us/en_US/pdc-communities/profile.html?psnHandle=sam6862 This appears to be mixing the user's posts with mine or your posts, especially when scrolling down. After scrolling down all the way, have trouble trying to scroll up, and my web browser appears to repeatedly trying to load something about 5 times per second?
7. "Flag" have too little options. How to report/flag duplicate posts? (just happened in Support Forums, Games & Services). Maybe prevent duplicate posts from happening in the first place by checking if the user's previous post is different and block identical posts to identical forum location.
8. When i post or reply, it displays -1 seconds (negative one?)
9. Links in new replys, including this one, are not clickable. No easy option to add links when making a new topic/reply.
Part of this is expermental.
I don't see a PREVIEW option for posts. For me, this is not good. Expect spelling errors.
EDIT after posting: There is an Edit option after I posted which I am using now.
Is there way to enlarge text? I am not trying HTML at this time. I know i can enlarge text with my computer so that may be sufficient.
I don't care about aparent loss (so far) of Kudos or Post Count. "Post Count" phrase I tried to underline. See what I mean about Preview option.
I can read the post completely without scrolling left/right.
Trying to use JUSTIFY for indentation on this line. (I failed.)
Using Space bar for indentation on this line.
A bit of blue text color for this line. (I don't grasp on using the color option.)
Can't add spaces between most lines except numbered list.
Image insert as I had before, more or less... or will it show?
Done! Adding a smiley here :) (Smiley doesn't work.)
DONE!!! Enuff is enuff!!! Thanks goodness for edit option.
Need flag to show to which posts I've replied.
Need post history
Need flag for solved issues
Home Sweet Home! First post in the new land.
It IS nice to be home, but that said, yeah obviously the new location is a rough one to start. That said I actually do believe that the migration will allow for a better result down the road, and it's actually nice to hear the confirmation. I did not know SIEA did not own the development on the old forums (maybe it was up to Lithium back then?), and that could have been a big reason why certain things weren't implemented. Much easier when you can do it yourself!
So, it will be rough but we're all on the ground floor together on this. Let's build a new home for ourselves.
PSForumsPost, thanks for the updates, the consistent updates of what's new will be appreciated. That said, my suggestions are probably obvious ones, the more priority features I would like to see are:
1.) Tagging @soandso
2.) Profiles
3.) Advanced HTML
4.) Signatures
Obviously others and myself have probably 1,000 other suggestions, but I understand that they will need to be rolled out over time.
:^/ At the moment, I am unimpressed. But, it is still early days. I'm looking forward to learning more.
I love coming here love being an support MVP , love helping others
but these forums were not ready to come back online, I would have personally preferred them to be reed only until it was ready
