Edit log not stored when noting reason for moving a thread.

[arielmeadow]

What I did:

1. Clicked edit on a thread:

2. On edit page, I changed forum category and made a note in the "edit log" section: ​http://awesomescreenshot.com/0ca25fk7ea

What I expected to happen:

1. Thread is moved to new category
2. Edit log appears at the end of the post, noting my edit log notes

What happens:

1. Thread is moved to new category
2. Edit log notes do NOT appear at the end of the post

I have confirmed that edit logs are stored and displayed just fine when editing a post that is NOT moved.

But when editing + moving, edit logs are not stored or displayed.

I cannot reproduce this.

Repro Steps:

1. Ensure revision logging is enabled in bbPress settings
2. Edit a topic
3. Add an edit reason
4. Click Submit
5. Optional: Select a new forum for the topic.

Works as expected with or without step 5 in that the topic has updated content and a revision log is included in the topic content.

Alternate revisions based on only moving a topic to a new forum

1. Ensure revision logging is enabled in bbPress settings
2. Open a topic via 'edit'
3. Do not modify the topic content
4. Select a new forum to move the topic to
5. Add an edit reason
6. Click submit

Again works as expected though no revision log is appended to the topic as we did not edit the content so no revision log is appended.

We are only updating _bbp_revision_log when the content is edited. We do not currently log split, move, spam, merge actions.

Can't duplicate this either. More information will be helpful

• What theme are you using?
• What other plugins do you have installed?
• Has this ever worked? (Is this a recent bug introduced in 2.5?)
• Are there any other circumstances where this happens?
