Ok. I think I know what's going on.

We're using a plugin called support forum that looks like it hasn't been updated in quite a while. My guess is that it keeps a hard reference to the tid, even if it's moved to another category.

It's only 168 lines of source, but I don't know Node.js or NodeBB architecture enough to make heads or tails of it. Maybe I should put a bounty on it? Not sure how well those kinds of offers are received, though.

While using less in the custom CSS, is it possible to gain access to the colors used in the theme/skin (specifically the skin).

I'm trying to plop in a background image floating underneath the content but allowing users to change skins causes problems because the main content area is transparent. So either I can set it to something light, which messes up dark skins, or set it to something dark, which messes up light skins.

Ideally, I'd like to transplant the body background color to the #content div without modifying the theme or skins.

Thoughts?

Thank you, @baris

Re: Change all postings for a one user to another user.

I'd also like to know if it's possible to move one users posts to be owned by another (specifically for merging two accounts created by the same user into one user account).

Thanks, the disable plugins suggestion worked. Apparently it was the "sanitize html" plugging that was causing the problem.

Not even sure why we had that still installed.

Thanks all for the troubleshooting help!

I (admin) can go to Manage -> Categories.. If I hit the "+", enter a name, click "Save" - nothing happens. No new Category is created. I've tried creating a top level category and a category as a child of something else and same behavior.

I was running 17.x and was having the issue. I upgraded to 18.4 (I think) - whatever the latest as of the writing of this post. Behavior remained the same.

Any guidance on troubleshooting?

Thanks
