Hi @robin-w ,

do you have any idea regarding this issue? Post updates (in backend) on topics delete all subscriptions.

Is this a normal behaviour? When yes, how can I keep subscriptions after a topic update in admin area?

@robin-w , No, I realised this as my forum was already 2.6. I was wondering why users don’t answer the topics. After testing I saw that all subscriptions are gone, since I update tags of all topics.

@robin-w , thanks for your advise. RC7 partially solved the problem.

This is before updating topic (post_id:54878) in admin area:

mysql> select * from forum_postmeta where meta_key="_bbp_subscription" ; 
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+
| meta_id | post_id | meta_key          | meta_value |
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+
.....
.....
|   35265 |   54878 | _bbp_subscription | 11743      |
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+

This is after updating the topic (post_id:54878) in admin area:

mysql> select * from forum_postmeta where meta_key="_bbp_subscription" ; 
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+
| meta_id | post_id | meta_key          | meta_value |
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+
.....
.....
|   35265 |   54878 | _bbp_subscription | 11743      |
|   35280 |   54879 | _bbp_subscription | 1          |
+---------+---------+-------------------+------------+

So, the user subscription is there but there is a new unnecessary row, the admin user is subscribed to a non-existing topic. post_id=54879 does not exist.

Who can we report bugs?
