its adding the / automatically. even if i take it out. What is causing it?

Anyone figure out why it shows threads that need moderation when there aren't any? It works fine for new threads. It would be nice to be able to get rid of the nonexistent 4 threads notification.

This occasional happens to me too where it incorrectly shows threads/post need moderation

Usually loading the mod control panel panel directly
and then reloading the forum page corrects the notification error

Not sure what you are saying. I imported it via the admin panel under products and programs.

Instead of clicking on the notification area in upper right which this mod provides
where it says 4 threads awaiting approval

Load your forum's 'moderate threads' page directly:
http://yourforumname/modcp/moderate.php?do=posts
it should show no threads/posts awaiting approval

Then reload your forum homepage and the 4 threads notification in the upper right should be set back to 0

I just tried that, and it is still showing the phantom 4 thread notification.

Do you have an alternate Admin/Mod account you can login with
to see if it also shows the same phantom threads
or try making a new account to test with

I upgraded my user test account to admin and logged in, and it still shows the 4 phantom threads.

Thanks for the reply. I just tried it, and it shows the same thing, unfortunately. I see in the comments for it, that some others have the same issue. Maybe it is a vbulletin bug. It is really irritating to see the phantom display. lol
