number of posts

i would like to knwow why the number of posts in the stat page is different from the number print in the forums.

960 in the stat page
852 in the forum

thx for your answer.

What is the column you are talking about - posts or topics? And which exactly stats page - user info or general?

posts and general statistics.
i make the stats for this forum and the figures don't correspond.

100
876
2609
467
645
63
191
448
------.
5399

in stats the numbers is 6419

???

The topic starters (i.e. first post of every topic) are not counted in the overall list. Add those to the list and the number should be correct.

ookkk i understand...
is there a way to count it (the real number in front of each forum) because it's strange like this ???

I've got same issue also.. but it's a little different with that.

In Statistic, Number of Posts is like: "160,600", But in Database it's: "160,602" there is 2 more and it's not the same in forum.

I checked many times and there is 2 more in database.. is there any way to fix this issue?

Thanks :)

When you have a large and constantly growing database, there could be misleading in calculating such large amount of posts. mySQL has bugs, too.

Also if your database is growing instantly, there is no wonder that while you watch the amount of posts on miniBB page, the actual amount is grown by this time.

So first of all, you need to make sure there is really such misleading or it just shows so.
