# description

This weekend I had meticulously ensured every category had the setting “default to post voting topic” enabled. Last night I rebuilt my discourse image. Today, all of those checkboxes are disabled.

# expected behavior

settings should hold their state after a rebuild

# notes

I can’t be certain of the cause of the reset because a lot has happened in that time frame, but I would imagine rebuilding reset those settings.

has anyone else experienced this?
