Currently running into an issue of a failed user merge of a very active user account into a new user. The user no longer has access to the previous user account and email, and due to my instance being on Auth0 SSO (which I do not have access to) I need to merge the users. This hangs running in the …

Hate to bump this but still experiencing the same issue. Now getting a new Argument error after the rake aborted message though! Including the two usernames in this next error log just to see if it’s somehow the user’s name that’s the issue. ▶ Error log, from running rake users:merge

Would you need to be mindful of other plugins that the user may have data for? Eg. Solved, topic voting [1] , polls, etc [이미지] Topic Votes don't transfer when merging accounts Bug Hello, I searched for a topic but couldn’t find one addressing the same …

This may also be a good avenue to explore: [이미지] I'm attempting to merge user accounts I finally determined that the hang was caused by the “from” user account having “orphaned” posts. By “orphaned”, I mean that there was a database entry for the post, but no entry for the topic associated with …
