Last topic is ??? after conversion

[Elementtair]

After conversion, last topic of each forum is unknown like ???

If I look in the database, last post is good, but last_topic of forums table is "???", also friendly_name is empty

Had same issue with previous versions of transformer:

• If I click on ???, I am redirected to the correct post
• if I add a post then suppress it, the data become correct : last_topic and friendly_name get populated

In the original fluxbb, the forum table does not have a field to store the name of the last topic, and I did not write code to calculate it during conversion.
After adding a new message in a particular forum, the question marks in that forum will change to the topic title.
On an active forum, no one would notice such behavior.

This is not a big deal in itself, but you cannot rebuild the search index until all last topics of each forum are populated

This should not affect the search index, since the data in it is taken from the ::topics and ::posts tables. The same question marks are in the ::forums table (this is redundant data that is needed to speed up the database query on the main page).

Yes, that why I also mentionned the friendly_name which is not populated either until last post is updated.

What I know is the rebuilding of seach index was not possible until I updated each forum last post.

I'll do some test later to provide the exact error

So I tried to rebuild the search index of my newly converted forum, and it gave no error !

Even with those question marks still present!

So I don't know from where the previous error came from ... but it seems fixed for the search index rebuild
