Create a forum A, write a topic in it and then move this topic into another forum B. Then there should be a pointer created in forum A pointing to the message in forum B.

When that pointer expires, the thread count for forum A on the main page becomes -1 !

Regards,

Frédéric.

EDIT : it seems to be fixed by running the consistency checker, but it is still a bug.

How did the topic expire? Was there a new topic made in the original forum? In latest forum code it can only expire in 2 ways:

1) Consistency checker run
2) New topic is created or a new message posted in the original forum.

I'm not sure if I understand it well but the running the consistency checker actually solved the -1 thread count (it put it back to the correct 0).

And I'm not talking about expiry of a topic, but of a pointer to a topic that was moved by a moderator, as set in "Moved Topic Pointer Expiry" in the admin panel.

No new message got posted to the original forum, it is still empty.

But that happened when (or just before/after) I was upgrading from 2.7.2 to 2.7.4 so maybe it was during the consistency check at the end of the upgrade ?

Regards,

Frédéric.

I've added a sanity check to prevent this problem.
