I did that, and no red errors are showing up in the console. What else could cause this?

Apologies but we are not ignoring you. I want to discuss this with @mr-papa who may have ideas but he is travelling at the moment.

The problem is curious. Do other items in the tools function as expected? Also - are you aware of installing anything new around the time this stopped working? And perhaps, as a third question, does the name you are wanting to change the topic to have any odd, non-alphanumeric characters in it?

There are no odd characters in the title. I also tried editing other topic titles, and they don't work either. There are other forum tool functions which also don't work. For example I tried moving a post to another topic, but that didn't work either. I tried looking at the properties in the tool set - nothing opened. I could delete a topic via the tool set.

The only thing that happened around the time that I noticed the problem is this. I redid my site in a staging environment. I changed the theme and upgraded it. Then I pushed it live, however I specifically excluded all simple:press related files because I did not want to overwrite any posts that had been made while I was working on the staging copy. These are the files which I excluded from the push. They should include the forum posts and the blog posts. So theoretically the forum should not have been affected by the editing in the staging copy.

wp_comments
wp_usermeta
wp_postmeta
wp_posts
wp_sfmemberships
wp_sfuseractivity
wp_sfnotices
wp_users
wp_sftopics
wp_sftrack
wp_sfposts
wp_sfcache
wp_sfmembers

You are probably OK there although for the record I must point out that you list only a subset of the forum tables above.

Sorry about the questions but there is one more i did not ask if I am going to have to build a new test system for this... what version of WP are you using? Again - are you up to date with the latest version?

Yes, I update wordpress and all plugins immediately when a new version is available. I also just tested this issue in the staging copy, and the same issue exists there.

Regarding the forum tables - I looked at all the files in the staging copy which started with wp_sf, and those were all that I found. Which ones are missing?

The forum works fine, except the tool set went on strike which is a serious problem for me.

The core SP plugtin - with no extra plugins installed - creates 24 core tables in the database - all prefixed with 'sf' after the WP table prefix. Some SP plugins will add additional tables.

I will attempt to recreate a test system for the tools test.

After a recreated 5.7.5.2 test system I am sorry to say that I can not replicate your problem...

I understand your WP system is the latest update but can you confirm the actual version number for me please?

That was the last piece for me to check as I was using an alpha of the next WP version. Have downgraded to 4.9.4 and am still unable to replicate. So we have to backtrack, I think, to other changes your end. Although if a conflict that would normally cause an error.

Are you able to check the actual php error log on your server as if an error occurs in AJAX it can write it there and not necessarily in the SP log?

Here is the php error log. However from what I can see, all the errors relate to my previous theme, flexsqueeze, which I just replaced with the Generate Press theme a few days ago.
