Interesting to see if the user ID is empty on the topic record in question. It should not be. Even if not posted/started by a member it should at least have a zero in it.

Worth stressing that this has nothing to do with the actual topic move. This issue happened when trying to construct the notification to the topic ‘starter’ that it had been moved.

Yes, the topic does actually move, I shall investigate further.

This issue happened when trying to construct the notification to the topic ‘starter’ that it had been moved.

So…does the user who has their topic moved get notified? By Email? We have always sent a PM to notify members with a link when moving their topic…

They do… they get a notice at the top of the forum next time they log in… It will persist for 30 days or until they dismiss it…

There is an option on forum – admins – global admin options for enabling or disabling…  yours is clearly enabled since generating that notice is where it fails…

Interesting, user_id was NULL for this topic.

Created new topic as non-admin member. Confirmed user_id assigned in wp_1_sftopics.

Moved topic successfully with no db error.

Notice displayed for user who started topic.

Assigned user_id=1 to problematic topic.

Successfully moved said topic without error.

Created new topic as admin. Confirmed user_id assigned in wp_1_sftopics.

Moved topic successfully with no db error.

I’m chalking this one up to Gremlins. Thanks much for the troubleshooting tips.

Looking forward to the pending update to address the move post issue I originally brought up for this topic.

Cheers!

Same issue here when I tried to move the post to an existing topic. I went to the new topic it didn’t show the “Move” button
