I'm running Mambo 4.5.3, SMF 1.0.5 and bridged them with Mambo-SMF 1.3.1.3. The forum works great except for one thing, when posting a topic or previewing one, all text entered is dropped. The topic is posted with no problems, no errors and shows in the forum along with the proper topic name, but the contents of the thread are dropped and replaced with a 0.
I'm having a very similar problem. I have all the same versions installed.
If I post something (comment or new topic) with it wrapped, the contents are replaced by 0 when posting/previewing.
However, I can post fine through the unwrapped version.
The site is at http://dysg.perfectinsanity.me.uk/mambo/ (and linked under as efora). You can see if you go to the forum (linked under efora) the items with a "0".
