    Had to delete the forum I synced posts to and now I need to resync the blog posts to a forum but I keep getting this error when clicking:

    Under settings > Discussion > bbPress Topics for Posts Defaults >
    Apply settings to existing posts

    The button goes gray and says:
    There was an error with your selected topic

    Help Pls.

    I’d guess that you need to delete this custom post_meta key – bbpress_discussion_topic_id.

    You’ll have to do this for every post you had linked to a topic.. Or, write a function to loop through all the posts and use delete_post_meta($post_id, ‘bbpress_discussion_topic_id’); to get rid of all the old topic id’s.

    If you have existing topics with replies, that requires more work. The method above, assumes you want to create new topics..

    I believe your referring to back end DB edits? Any chance you or someone else should walk me through a script to accomplish this?

    Sry new to this sort of stuff.

    Thx
