Hi everyone, I have searched the forum in google and through the tags in buddypress and could not find a solution.

When creating a new topic titled “I am having an issue trying to find a specific Brand…” the next page says “page cannot be found”. After going back to the topics page I can see the topic created but cannot get to the topic as it still shows “page cannot be found” when I click the topic name. I can see that the url has the “…” in the permalink slug, but this did not happen in older versions of buddypress (1.2.9). I could create the same topic title in the older version and it would be ok and trim the “…” out of the url/permalink.

Thank you for any help,

@chr313 no problem with periods or ellipsis [ … ] at end of Title of Group Forum Topic at all. Have you tried deactivating plugins or changing to bp-default theme to check if issue is corrected.

Hi @mercime thanks for the reply. I tried disabling all plugins and I still get the problem with the topic_slug not being created correctly. I also tried putting it back to the default theme and still having the problem. Any other ideas?
