What's in the .txt file works for me though :confused:

Thanks for this hack m8. Now I can delete the old post I don't need anymore :).

Ok I've noticed a bug in this hack which means it does not work.

I have a fix for it, it requires modifying index.php and member.php (you only need to modify member.php if you have the "percentage of total posts" hack installed, and do not worry, even if you have pruned and the counters have reduced on forumhome, they will shoot back up ;)

I don't have enough time to post the fix right now, but I'll post it in 30-60 mins.

<font size="4">Hack update! v1.1 released!</font>

If you had already installed this hack, go to the attachment in the first post, and undo the changes. Then look at the v1.1 attachment below, and apply the changes.

Nice:)

Satan

didn't work in 2.2.9.. dunno..

it SHOULD work in 2.2.9...as I don't think they changed the code pertaining to what I'm editing?

Could you be more specific as to why it didn't work? Give me details.

hmm, Well... I upgraded from phpBB to vB.. I currently have 43,046 posts and 3,860 threads. But the forum software is showing 150,766 posts and 13,628 threads....???

At any rate, I've had to add post counts to quite a few users who who earned them on the previous board or the board prior to phpBB (the board has been through hell, UBB to Hebb to phpBB and now vB.. lol). When I ran the Update Thread Info under Update Counters in the CP, the thread numbers were still off and the users post counts that I've added have disappeared.

I'm guessing something with the dB maybe corrupt when I upgraded from phpBB to vB. I've searched the dB and see no problems though I do notice my forums are numbered quite high. IE. instead of the forum ID's numbered 1-15 or whatever, they're numbered 86-107? Also the post ID's are numbered very high (in the 100,000 range.)

I'm stumped... It's not that great of a deal. The board works and the numbers are not that noticable. It's just one of those quirks you wish were fixed. hehe.. ;)

What this hack does is take the MAXvalue from the DB...there are entries in the DB for posts, and it will assign numbers to them, so it's going to display the total posts posted, it will take the latest entry to the DB for posts, and take that number and display it...

How about MEMEBRS Count?
Had a incident where 600 members got removed so the count went down by 600 members
