Hi wpforo community, 

I'm doing some tests with a forum structure already defined. When I add a topic, answer under the topic and publish, everything works perfectly. As Admin, when I try to delete a topic and answers under the topic, the topic stays.

How I can remove the topic?

Thanks in advance.

Best,

Alex.

Hi @alexpardo,

I think you have some js errors on your website and the errors don't allow you to delete the topics. Please leave your forum URL to allow us to check the issue.

I have the same problem. I've deleted the topic in the WP Dbs >

wptw_wpforo_topics  table 

via PhpMyAdmin, but 1. the topic still shows in the Forum and 2. if I click on the topic I get a 404 page can't be found error.

How do I fix this?

Thanks for your prompt attention. 😀 

https://www.bitcoin-secrets.com/community/ shows the Topic in the forum.

https://www.bitcoin-secrets.com/community/main-forum/test-topic/#post-1 is the 404 page missing error when you click on the topic.

The topic I wanted gone is now completely gone from the forum home page also just like I wanted it. 😀

However, another post I want to remove was added later. I deleted the topic in the database and get a 404 error on that page.

Do you think it just needs to be updated/reindexed and that only happens once a day?
