Subject: Added code to catch runaway case when there is more than one news forum.
X-Git-Url: http://git.mjollnir.org/gw?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8daaf761c34a09406e538c3f0ccfb91643730f67;p=moodle.git

Added code to catch runaway case when there is more than one news forum.

It shouldn't happen, but I think it can when the database is having
problems.
