Share for Review strikethrough & highlight from online edits aren't visible in InDesign
InDesign Vs. 16 Share for Review: if the reviewer uses the strikethrough text or highlight option, I don't see these in my indesign doc. I can see the strikethrough text on the browser version, but the highlight disppears completely. The review comment is in both places, just not what it's referencing.

InDesign Share for Review @mentions are not sending emails to the contributors
People are leaving comments with the @mention option but the @person is not receiving those comments in email so they don't know that the comment was made.

Hyperlinks In Document Not Linking Out
I am working in InDesign 17.3.
I can create and update the Share for Review link itself but all hyperlinks within the document won't work. The hyperlinks show up as links in the document and online (blue, underline) but when you click on them they don't do anything. You can't right click to get options to open in a new tab or copy the link.
The links work when you export as a PDF or publish online but not when you do Share for Review.

Scrolling loop
I have a scrolling bug in the share for review feature. Even in a small file of 10 pages, when scrolling too quickly up or down. The scroll gets stuck in some kind of loop, only reloading the page seems to solve the problem. Tried on 2 different macbook pro's and an Imac running Big Sur and High Sierra.
In the attached video, you first see me scrolling 'gently' which doesn't cause any problems, but after 'flicking' the mouse pad / magic mouse a few times it gets stuck in this loop.

All resolved comments disappeared
Overnight all resolved comments and their respective users disappeared from the Review panel. When switching the filter no comments are shown anymore and i can't get them back in neither scenario (logging in the CC online and looking in the review link, looking in InDesign itself and so on). Is there any chance to get those resolved comments back? They haven't been deleted neither, either the client or I resolved those through both ways and the day before everything was there and viewable with the respective filter. Without them it's nearly impossible to keep a backlog of all the changes.

Review: Previous feedback is no longer displayed in previous file version
Previous feedback is no longer displayed in previous file version! This is extremely tedious when checking the files, because even if you make a copy of the file and assign a new review link to it, your colleagues cannot compare the corrections with their comments. Likewise, I cannot check whether I have received the feedback with the subsequently marked errors and thus adopted them.

Share for Review
After sending out a "Share for Review" in InDesign, I went back to the file after people made comments and when I go to the review, the only option is to create a new review. But if i go to my email notification and click on the link, I can see the review that way. I did not "save as" to the file.
3 votesOpen the Review panel (Window>Comments>Review) to see the comments made by the people with whom you had shared the document for review.
Please let us know if this solves the issue for you.

Share for Review - Public Recipients Still Can't Access Without Adobe Account
I'm using InDesign version 17.0.1. Using Share for Review, I was able to chose Public and send invitations. The recipients received the e-mail from Adobe, but if the recipient is on a computer without an Adobe account, when they click the button to access the file, it doesn't open - it will just spin for several minutes then display a File Preview Error . The instructions I have for Share for Review said that choosing Public would allow users without an Adobe account to access the file, but this does not seem to be the case. I first tested this…

Share for Review error message
I am using Indesign CC 16.0.1 and I am trying to use Share for Review—I have created a simple letter sized document with shapes and filler text. When I click "Share for Review—Create" I just get the error message included below. I have tried with multiple documents over the last few weeks—I have restarted, signed in and out of CC...no change.

Share for Review / Hyperlinks not working
Hyperlinks are not working on Share for review, using image, text or even buttons. They work fine if you export the document as Interactive PDF. Already tried to delete the review and upload a new version, but nothing seems to work.
Does anyone else have this issue?

Share for Review
I'm now using InDesign 2022. I open an old document and save with a new name as I have done for years. However, now when I go and create a Share for review, the old file name still appears in the Share for Review tab as the Title. Even when I've changed the title in that tab, it seems to revert back to the old title of the original file I based my new file on. This title is what appears on the pdf that is sent to the reviewers. So this can be very confusing and a HUGE problem.…

Duplicating Document within Finder Causes Both to be linked to the same Review "Share For Review"
I just encountered a very annoying bug. It seems that if you duplicate a file in the finder (Mac OS) with a document that already has a review, the copy seems to keep the link to the Shared for Review review. Also the original maintains the link. Even if you try creating a new review it seems both files are connected. The way to avoid it is to do a Save Copy from with InDesign. So I guess within the InDesign document when you just duplicate in the finder there is some information that somehow keeps it lined to the…

Share for review automatically loads when opening a file
I have am using version 16.4. Every time that I open a file, a Share for Review pops up on the screen. I have NEVER shared an InDesign document for review with this feature. Even if I click it away, as soon as I open another document (2 files now open), the Share for Review pops up again. How do I stop this from loading every single time? I just want to get to my documents without any slow down, and am frustrated that I can't find anything in any of the menus to turn this off.

Review Link Lost
I found a bug with the latest Indesign v.16.4.
STEPS:
Review link from my indesign file created.
Editors made comments on the review file.
Two months later - opening the source Indesign file the review link was lost. The file did not retain a review link was already generated and asked to establish another one.
NOTE: No adjustments where made to the file and no comments where ported over to the original source file. It simply forgot the link association.
