Hello,

I set an option to cross-post a database record as a forum topic .

But the auto-posted topics are empty. No content, no excerpt, just a link View full article.

Is that normal behaviour or have I missed something in settings?

What have you set as “content” field? It should include that.

Hello opentype,

I haven't touched database fields (if that is what you mean).

I have got two databases - one converted from Wordpress and one pre-installed (Articles). Both doesn't show any content in topics.

That didn‘t answer my question. In your field listing in the ACP you can set two types ”system fields“ called Title and Content. Do you have a content field set and if so, is that the field which holds your article content.

I have checked and answer to both questions is yes.

 

 

@edit

I created a new database and connected it to a forum and everything works fine. I compared the settings/permissions and didn't find anthing suspicious.

Does it happen for new records as well? If there was something misconfigured in the past, it won‘t correct older records.

If that’s not it, I would suggest to open a support ticket with IPS.

Unfortunately yes.

What's weird it also happens to the preinstalled database.

New databases work ok.

Thank you for your time 🙂
