Hi,

every now and then we have spammers on our forum which has to be deleted. When we delete their accounts, we used to use the feature to delete all their posts, but for some reason this doesn't work anymore. After choosing the mentioned option during deletion process, the user account is gone, but all of its posts are still there and assigned to the user 'Guest' (see screenshots attached).

Is there anything we can do to track and trace the reason for this behaviour? I turned off all other plugins and switched to Twenty-Twenty WP-theme, but still the same. We're running on WP 5.3.2. Can this be related to a migration, we did just recently? We changed provider and did a relaunch, which involved migration of the database tables to the new installation.

Any hint is appreciated!

Thanks
