    Hello Team,

    this morning I made my "personal" transition and corrected the links in my blog. In this context I saw that in my threads, which contains code, the code was no longer present. I have now added this code again, because otherwise the posts would not longer be understandable. As far as I know many threads contained code, so it will probably be very similar for a lot of content. Are you planning to add the missing code blocks later?

    Thanks and best regards
    Stefan

    P.S. Here an example:

    Hi @Stefan Schnell  - We will take a look at your data to see what is going on.   If this code block is something Khoros (old) platform-specific, it was not imported due to a lack of feature match.   If this is just the emdeed code in the body of the post, it should be retrievable.   Reviewing with the team.  @Juila Klaus and @Eric Nielsen    Thanks  @Jason McClellan Platform Admin

    Hi Stefan 

    We are meeting the vendor tomorrow and will report the "code missing" bug. For now, if there is any code you would like to retrieve, we are working on accessing the legacy community and we can capture it for you,

    Let me know,

    I can confirm that this is not just a personal bug. It looks like a lot of code formatted content has been lost during migration. Another example is this post of mine:

    1. Original content from the web archive. Screenshot for future reference:
      This image shows the original content from the web archive containing code formatted content.
    2. Migrated content. Screenshot for future reference:
      This image shows the migrated content with missing code snippets.

    I really hope you can fix this automagically. Otherwise this may render a lot of discussions useless for future readers.

    @stackprotector  - we are reviewing the old khoros code for a flag to determine if we can convert the incoming data to our tool which allows users to post code based on typle (HTML, PHP, etc).  We working with the vendor.
