I used the command
rake destroy:topics["#"]
to delete topics, in fact all topics in the forum menu don’t show up, but if I search about it, they do!
Wasn’t it supposed to delete everything?

I have this problem too.
From what I understand, the rake destroy tasks don’t delete data from the database, they only soft-delete it. For a hard-delete you would need to access the rails console.
My rails skills are not great, so I’m hesitant to offer any specific advice, especially for a job of this magnitude , but there are a few pieces of existing advice you could use to research what you’d need to do. Eg:
If you click on those topics in the search, can you see them?
I’m not sure if you’re seeing soft-deleted topics or you’re seeing a search index that hasn’t been refeshed since the topics were deleted.
