Question Bug: Move message into other category

I think I've found a new bug. I try to move a message into a thread of an other category. So I push the "Moderate" button in this message and hit the "Move options" tab. Now when I choose an other "target category", the "Target Topic" scroll-down menu still shows the topics from the old category. So I have to move the topic with a temporary name to the new category first and then I have to moderate again to attach this message to teh right topic.

The same happens when I try to move a whole topic to another category. I tried the same with a copy of my forum which still runs under K5.2.14. As soon as I choose another category, the "Target Topic" dropdown menü shows the topuics in this category.

Hope I decsribed this good enough

I cannot reproduce this error. When I select a different category, the corresponding topics are displayed immediately. What happens if you wait a while after selecting another category before selecting the target topics?

It works for me as well as long as I perform the action in the same section.

I tested this yesterday, changed the category and waited for ~ 3 minutes. But the topic list did not change

I tested this too. I have three main sections in my forum with severe categories in each section. But even if I choose a categoriy in the same section the topic list does not change.

As I wrote above: I have created a copy of my site before I did the big upgrade of Joomla (from J3 to J5) and Kunena (from K5 to K6). The copy still works fine, as soon as I choose a new category (inside the same section or from a different section), the list of topics changes immediately. But now with all updates installed it does not work anymore.

I also tested with the default templates for the site and Kunena, but this also did not change anything.

Tested again and I think it is related to the number of topics in a category. For me it only works with categories with less than appr. 10 topics.

Hmm... When I try to merge a post from this topic here with a topic in another category, I see the complete topic list of the target category. Even if the target category is in a different section. I have no idea why this is not the case for you.

I can't confirm this for my forum. Even if the target category has only one topic, I cannot see this in the target.

But thanks anyway for your effort. I can live with this, I'll use my workaround then (copy as a new entry to the target category and then merge/rename)

I really think this is a bug. I can sometimes move to categories that have a few topics. Tested on a clean site with all default settings and only imported users and Kunena tables.

I have the same problem as Pinkeltje, but on Kunena 5.2.6 /Joomla 3.10.15
Some topics are not available in the Move options -> Drop down menu for Target Topic.
One workaround is to use the "Manually enter Topic ID" option.
