This seeming bug, was the result of a user fat finger error while splitting a topic. Some post were made a New Message instead of a New Topic. - \*Note: this is not the firs time new message has been chosen in error instead of new topic, suggestions you use colour or position to differentiate the options to avoid fat finger outcomes. It’s only a few posts, but there is now no option to convert them back to a topic, anywhere that I can find. I can not select and move them to a new topic. It’s only allowing message/new message. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/converted-topic-posts-to-message-can-not-convert-back-to-topic/242771)._
