Issue
Mods are seeing a different count of posts compared to regular users in TPD (I suspect because they are seeing deleted posts somehow or other relative to none Mod posters).
Hint / Notes
I know you've already played around with this area (post visibility and count) once so that hidden posts followed the behaviour of the old forum where they are displayed but hidden until clicked on rather than being removed on the server prior to the page being sent, so I wonder if that is a variation of that in play here.
Importance
Incredibly low - the only impact is that WTFH can't create Zentury / Millennium and Pali posts accurately unless he logs off to double check first.Last edited by eek; 10 November 2021, 10:03.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

I did notice that even when logged out the go to last post thing dumps me about 10,000 posts early in the thread.
Another feature.
Not to mention the "hit refresh five times" to actually fecking see something feature.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment

The latter bit is because likes and thanks is a separate routine that consumes cpu time so pages with a lot of likes and thanks have a risk of timing out.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Correction: it takes me to the same place page 30422 rather than page 30671, same when logged out as when logged in.
2490 posts early, which is a slightly strange number.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment

Mods/admin see different post counts/post numbers because of deleted posts being visible to them, as eek surmised. I can look into giving them both counts, but I'd need to have a think about it. (Post numbers would be complicated.) There's other things I should maybe concentrate on first though
The other thing is almost certainly to do with ignored posts, which I believed I'd fixed; apparently not. I'll create a test setup with a user that ignores suitable accounts to let me get a handle on what's going on. (I don't ignore anyone, so I don't see it.)Comment

The page changes to page 33805 if I ignore DoctorStrangelove and then (but only after I create a post). It remained at page 34418 until I added a post and the index page was refreshed.
For reference DoctorStangelove is no longer on ignore before Zeity get's annoyed.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
