Until it is fixed, the workaround is to delete a PM in the PM read view, not in the usual PM List view.

I've tested that and it works, albeit very tedious for more than a couple of PMs.

My spidey senses tell me that this bug may be related to the Mod tools post/user delete/move bug, that was reported by, er, mods here in the last few days..

Just finished testing/playing on the -test-mozilla site and did not come across any issues.
Check all Firefox forums - all ok , including the 'Support' forum that was very bad for me on the 1st rollout.
Checked My profile setting, PM"s , deleted the one PM I had without issue.
Checked the My Posts, all came up without issue.

I did not experience any logouts in bouncing around in the forums like before.

Seems like some major headway has been made. Good Job, and Good Luck, will be waiting the next roll-out.

This fix is present in the staging site and I am able to bulk delete PMs with "delete all marked" in the inbox -- will look more into this once I get login issues fixed.

Well, not so much fun. My id, ndebord, that I've used since Dec 7, 2002 no longer works here. Can't log in, can't change password (Says ID already taken). Had to create a new login ndebord2 to get here. Needless to say I'm disappointed.

I take you have not been here much for the last few weeks.

As per the OP in this thread, we had the forum upgraded to new phpBB on April 11. Two days later it was reverted back to this due to issues like random logouts and a number of other things. About the only thing that got fixed was one could do View your posts/User search properly without the error instead of doing the workaround.

There is a forums staging site for testing but it seems to just log me out now when trying things like Advanced Search.
