I’m puzzled. I don’t know which topic the undefined part is about, and I believe I started my message on the direct discussion page.

This is confusing. Also, I’ve written many messages on various Discourse forums and I didn’t get this popup once (which adds to the confusion), hence what I’m also asking the exact context it appears in.

As for the message itself, I’d prefer “topic not found” to “undefined”. 🙂
