    Default "views" not calculating correct?

    It would appear forum post "views" are only increasing when new posts made.

    As an example, I posted Friodur with Mother of Pearl/g10 scales last night, show 10 replies, 11 views.

    Seems like other posts same thing going on, but haven't been as attentive to those

    Thanks

    View count is not instant. It is updated once per hour.

    Yes, makes sense there would be a schedule for the update, and not instant.
    But I spent little more time looking at various posts from today.

    Looks like none of the threads created today or yesterday afternoon have an increase of view, unless a comment was posted, then view increased by that one comment. So new thread with four comments, shows five views

    Not certain if older posts have a higher view count either.

    If queued up from yesterday, that's fine, just seemed noteworthy.

    I don't know about that, but I know that views are not updating for recent threads when using the "new posts" function. Every recently created thread reports zero views even when it has several replies

    The views counter is definitely broken on this forum.

    Yeah we definitely know. I have to take the forum offline to fix it, not sure when I will have a chance .
