Topic: deleted user.. caused chaos!

http://www.princefams.com/forum/viewtop … 7&p=33

I deleted this user called "crystalc", on her request.
When I deleted the account, I removed the mark for "delete messages and threads", cause I wanted the threads to remain intact.
Afterwards I get this chaos (check link). How can I fix this, and what's gone wrong?
I'm using 1.2.5. and only registered members are allowed to posts (I mention this cause the deleted user now appears as Guest).

Many of the repeated posts were posts by others, but the content was replaced with the repeated posts from crystalc.
All the posts in that name were made before the account was deleted.

Any help would be appreciated

Re: deleted user.. caused chaos!

I was aware of that bug, and I fixed the other one.
This one I didn't do, because I didn't think it affected me, since guests cant post in my forum.

can the threads be ammened?

Edit: To answer my own question. When I edited the viewforum.php according to the link posted above, the forum went back to normal. Thankfully smile
