I dont know if is a bug or just an error. I link my WP and my discourse, I publish a post on WP without problems, but I went to delete complete a post on WP then I try to delete the topic linked to that post in WP (already erased) nothing happen. I see the error un the logs:

ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid (Error en la validación: Título parece poco claro, es una oración completa?) /var/www/discourse/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.5.0/gems/activerecord-5.2.0/lib/active\_record/validatio

And the topic remain in discouse…

Someone have the same problema?

Thanks.

That is a strange error to get for deleting a topic (‘Validation error: Title seems unclear, is it a complete sentence?’) How did you delete it? Could you try again and see what happens?

Well.. This are the step I made:

Post a new post in WordPress.

View the post in Discourse.

Delete the post in WordPress

Try to delete the post in discourse, here is where I have the problem.

Now I made a new post in WP and link it to the to the problematic topic.

Then try to delete the problematic topic, and I get an 422 error… ? but the problematic topic has dissapear (hurray!).

I try to reproduce the error now. with the same steps, but I don’t get the same results. So I guess is a temporary error or some glitch.

Thanks any way!
