Can't Edit Merged Thread. - flavoral - Feb 16, 2023 Posting this here cuz this got lost in the pool of replies on the other thread. Can't Edit a Thread using the Full Edit feature after the section it was initially in, was merged into anther sub-forum. Thread in question: https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=6048790 For those asking how i updated the thread then? To bypass it, i had to use the Quick Edit feature to update the content of the thread, then from the subforum itself, i hold click on the the title to edit it too. Otherwise, it will give you that error. RE: Can't Edit Merged Thread. - Cooligan - Feb 16, 2023 Hmm, odd but interesting. I don't even ever recall seeing this error before. RE: Can't Edit Merged Thread. - Omniscient - Feb 16, 2023 That's because the posts table has an FID column and it's all wrong and needs to be rebuilt. So things like searches of posts will return the wrong forum of the post. I have to write a loop function to go through all posts and fix it.
