Incorrect "Can't delete all posts. Some posts are older than 60 days old."

I was viewing a user in the Admin panel and noticed this message:

Posts: 1 - Can’t delete all posts. Some posts are older than 60 days old. (The delete_user_max_post_age setting.)

I’ve installed the forum only 9 days ago, and that user’s post correctly shows as being made 16 hours ago in their public profile.

Any imports or old data?

Nope, none yet.

Saw this with two users I granted Admin, then Moderator to, then set Trust level to 4; then I scrolled down on the page and noticed the bogus error.

Didn’t see it with a 3rd user to whom I only granted Moderator.

I should try and come up with a precise repro sequence.

This is probably a bug, for sure. @neil can you have a quick look tomorrow?

Yeah that’s a misleading message… You can’t delete admins, so it’s true that you can’t delete, but it shouldn’t be showing that message. I’ll fix.

UPDATE: fixed
