Paizo team,
So far I am liking Planar Adventures. I know you are going to be looking for Errata soon, so I thought I would start the thread. On page 18, under the Portal Seeker archetype, first paragraph, second sentence. I suggest removing While. It is a improper sentence. Instead, cut the word out and start with In many cases. It flows smoothly that way and makes sense.
Again, great job. I will find more I am guessing. Putting out large books will have their share:)

Location
Page 78. 2nd column. Norgorber. Divine Gift.
Error
Nethys's name is listed for the divine gift, though it notes granting the untyped bonus to dexterity.
Solution
Change 'Nethy' to Norgorber unless the untyped bonus to dexterity is also wrong and the whole line should change.

Page 78: Irori's minion list includes Inevitables
At the god’s insistence, Axis’s native inevitables and formians are forbidden to enter the Serene Circle, for their alien nature and constant noise are disruptive to the sense of tranquility he seeks.
Solution: Replace with "Kami" per Monster Summoner's Handbook.

Since this is more of a campaign setting book, the last of the current edition AND the chances that the first print run will ever sell entirely are moderate at best ... I wouldn't waste my time trying to find errors.
I disagree. Though you're right we're likely not going to see another printing, to me these errata threads are specifically for helping other players make corrections in their own books. The fact that they're referenced by Paizo for official errata is wonderful, but it's for pointing it out to players just as much as to the devs.

Except that community errata is usually incorrect. Remember Bestiary errata threads, where roughly half "errors" weren't errors at all? Leave the errata to professionals.

You still need to double check the community errata. That's essentialy doubling the amount of work, not to mention having to wrestle with invested folks who think that are doing LOTS OF GOOD WORK due to their community errata and will be very unhappy if their GOOD WORK is not included and then you have to explain them just why their good work was not included. And humans are funny creatures, the more they are invested and believe in relevance of their work, the less easily they take the fact that they were wrong.
All in all, poor ROI.

blazing aura mechanics seem broken
Prerequisite(s): Knowledge (planes) 3 ranks.
Benefit(s): As a standard action, you can shroud yourself in fire. Until the end of your turn, whenever a creature makes a successful melee attack against you, that creature takes a number of points of fire damage equal to 1d6 plus half your ranks in Knowledge (planes); attacks made using reach weapons ignore this effect. A creature can halve this fire damage with a successful Reflex save (DC = 10 + half your level + your Constitution modifier).
You can use this feat’s benefit a number of times per day equal to your ranks in Knowledge (planes). If you have at least 9 ranks in Knowledge (planes), activating this ability is a move action. If you have at least 15 ranks in Knowledge (planes), you can activate this ability as a move action or a swift action.
Since it takes an action to activate and only last to the end of your turn, what use is it? This would only work against AoO. Seems like it needs to work different or longer.

Yup... that was certainly the intent. Until the end of next turn. Sorry about that.
With pretty much ALL of our focus rules-wise being aimed at the playtest and the new edition in the forseeable future, I don't expect any errata PDF or whatever to happen for Planar Adventures anytime soon, so as I was the main developer for the book I'll do what I can to help folks out.
As always, your GM is the final arbiter of rules interpretations, and I will be posting my words here as advice and help for those GMs, so if you have a question on how a rule works in your game, your GM should be your first go-to, if only because they'll generally be able to answer with more authority and more speed for your table.
Those who are playing PFS with content from this book will need to either wait for official rulings from the PFS team, or perhaps even better, look at building your character concept with other rules that aren't in need of errata; that's honestly the best solution for ANY PFS character in my opinion.
(Hopefully this post provided more help than it will encourage chaos and internet rage...)

A puzzling one (to me, anyway)... the Holy Days entries in the deity stat blocks give the Earth months name instead of the Golarion month names for various holy days... although those entries exist with their "proper" month names in previous products, making me wonder how the errors occurred at all.

We gave the earth months because this is in the RPG line, and we've never listed the Golarion days in that line, and I didn't want to do that in this book since it didn't make sense thematically to include that info. So yeah, we used Earth words so that everyone, not just those who have access to Inner Sea World Guide, would understand what we're talking about.

Didn't they mention they wanted to put all the books in their new(ish) small print format eventually?
