I thought this issue was only related to moving a post to an existing topic, but just confirmed moving to a new topic also fails. First noticed this after updates to SP 6.02 and WP 5.0.2...

Can anyone replicate the following behavior?

Or, might this be related to some new code missing from our child theme template(s)?

Cannot Move to Existing Topic:

1. Clicked Move Topic and selected move to existing topic

2. Navigated to desired existing topic.

3. No notice appeared at top of forums about post waiting to be moved.

Cannot Move to New Topic:

1. Clicked Move Topic and selected move to new topic.

2. No field displayed for entering new topic name.

3. Hitting move results in Move Abandoned error.

Thank in advance for any direction to troubleshoot further if this is not considered a bug report.

I have no issue moving to a new topic...  the input field for the new topic name is indeed there, but the css does appear wonky making it hard to see... its between the 'new topic name' title and the move button...  we do need to fix the css to make it more visible/obvious...

I will have to run some tests on moving to existing topic...

does seem to be something amiss with moving to existing topic though...  working that issue...

will have the move to new existing topic fixed up in the next version... as well as improved css for the move to new topic...

Thank you!

Is there any edit(s) required for spForumView or spTopicView templates that I should or will need to make to my Child Theme?

Also, I just confirmed that the topic name field is there, just hidden as you describe. If the css edit is something I should add to our child theme, please advise. We do have custom CSS for Reboot and the light-matte overlay in our rebootkid theme framework.

FYI: Just for fun, I tested the Move Topic function and encountered the following:

1. Opened Move Topic dialogue and selected desired forum.

2. Received Invalid Database Query error.

3. Page refreshed and redirected to new forum/topic, which was indeed moved.

New can o' worms here?

no the changes are internal and not theme related...

I cannot replicate the move topic issue... it works fine for me...  would be worth more details on the steps you took (which toolset, etc)...  also, look in your toolbox error log and see what the invalid db query was...

Sorry, forgot to include that:

Unable to post entire error including query...

so the topic was moved?  the error came from the success popup notice displayed...  weird... cannot replicate this...  the user id does not exist...

anything special about the topic (and its starter)?  admin? user? guest? etc....  how about the topic?  how many posts?  topic title?

Yes. Thanks for the brain cycles on this.

Special? Not sure.

Single post in new starter topic by admin (SP admin and WP super-admin). Topic may have been locked prior to attempted move. Testing that theory now...
