you can move other posts **to new topics** without problem there is an issue with that post only. Can you find or create another post with a markdown table and move it to see if you can move it to a new topic or only to an existing topic?

Probably you have some plugins or themes that are interfering.

As a workaround for the problem you can copy the post from [Community Notice | Freetrade](https://community.freetrade.io/raw/8235/12), delete the original post, paste the content in a new topic and ask an admin to change the ownership of the topic to the original author.
