Unless you can reproduce it here (try changing the category on this topic, your own topic, from bug to something else) it is not a bug, but an issue in configuration on your site.

Same issue here:

@codinghorror : Sorry not so much in the definition of bug in the discourse domain. For me it looked like a bug, as i did not changed anything on our site. But i can reporduce it here too, which still not mean its a bug…

I can reproduce it here:

Chrome: Version 89.0.4389.90 (Offizieller Build) (x86_64)

  1. Refresh page
  2. Click on edit title
  3. Press Save (without any changes)
  4. Javascript error message.

@codinghorror : Okay to move it back to bug?

Ok so the error is when you initiate a title edit on the first post, but you don’t actually change anything, and press save? Let me test that… editing soon…

aha yes I can repro this. Thanks for the report, indeed a bug of some kind @zogstrip . When you edit the topic title / category via the edit button next to the topic title, but don’t make any changes, and then press save, it is as @dirien describes.
