I posted three new topics in our group today, each with multiple files attached. I used the same process for all three (did it on the site, not by e-mail). Two worked fine, but something odd happened on one (actually the first one I posted). It is not showing up in our topic list, though you can see all the attachments in our files, and you can see there that they are under a different topic, so the topic's in the system somewhere, but just not showing up under "topics".

I have taken a look at your site and can see the problem you describe, except that first post in the missing topic has been hidden. Unfortunately, I think you have uncovered a second facet of the "Hiding the Only Post in a Topic" bug <https://projects.iopen.net/groupserver/ticket/708>. We currently do not have a confirmed timeframe for correcting this bug, but I can suggest a workaround to get the topic showing up. 1 Hide the second post in the topic that is not showing in the Topics list. 2 Repost the second post, starting a new topic with a different title to the original topic.

Thanks, Dan. I understand now what happened. When I posted the new topic I gave it the same name as the hidden one. I've re-posted with a new name. By the way, I got the same error message when I hid the second post of that topic that I got previously (the one I e-mailed you about). After entering the reason for hiding, I clicked "hide" and got the error message. The system did still hide the topic, so I'm good on that, but wanted to make sure you knew about this bug (at least that seems to be what it is).
Thanks, Karen ________________________________ From: Dan Randow <email obscured>> To: <email obscured> Sent: Wednesday, October 19, 2011 4:58 PM Subject: Re: [OGN Admins] Topic not showing up Hi Karen, > I posted three new topics in our group today, each with multiple > files attached.
