Exactly how many members do we have in our Forum? The attached screenshot of our Usergroup Manager page shows all the Default and Custom Usergroups that have members assigned.

I assume that adding up the number of Default Usergroups > Primary User reflects the 'total' number of members we have. What I am confused/concerned about is the total number of Custom Usergroups > Primary Users is greater, and not by just a little bit, but by several hundreds. Why?

Stats at the bottom of your homepage. Members: 18,846 Active Members: 195

You can also check the users table in the database to get exact number but this will include all usergroups.

Rats. I knew that, and, I forgot (again) that it's the combined total of all Primary Users in Default and Custom Usergroups.

That said, the 18,846 Members shown under Kubuntu Forums . Net Statistics is 'one more' than the total of all Primary Users. Hmm. Need to do some SQL queries.

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM User

Thats how many user records you have, which is how many members you have.

And that also returns 18,846. Why is the total count of Primary Users off by one; 18,845.
