TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON
-
I've just upgraded from v1.10.2 to v1.11.2 (luckily not on my live site) and when I try to view any categories, I get this error.
I thought I would ask about it here, before posting on the bug tracker.

I just tried converting my current forum which is still on v1.10.2 again to see if its resolved with the latest node, however I'm still getting this issue when trying to view a category either in category view or on the admin panel.
Do you know how I can check the database to solve this @baris ?

Can you put this script in your nodebb root folder and post the output here?
It should show your category structure.
