Post Counters not working

[mopacman]

I have notised that the post counters on other members post and my post do not work. When I check my post it shows that I have made the same number post that the counter says, but the new post show up with the same number as the last one......Larry

I generally don't even think about those numbers, but I see that it shows me at 21,062 so when I post this message I guess it'll go to 21,063 if it's working. I don't think I've ever heard of it not working in the past.

I noticed a long time ago that when I replied to a post the counter did not indicate I had added another post. However, If I close out of the thread I replied to, went into another thread, closed out of that and check back into the one I replied to it shows my post count went up by one.

George, what browser are you using? I only use Internet Explorer and when I post something, the new count is there immediately, so your experience strikes me as being a bit odd. But I know so little about computers that the only thing I could think of is if you're using a different browser (and of course I realize that might have nothing to do with it at all).

Bird,
I too don't know much about computers. Currently I'm using Firefox. I was using IE but had too many viruses sneak in even with a firewall and anti virus program. Firefox has been much better keeping out the bad guys. I don't really care if the count shows up immediately as long as it shows up. It may be the way something is set. I hate to try and make changes to my browser when I'm not sure what I'm changing. As long as I can get to the site, log in, and reply to threads, thats all I'm concerned about. Posting this reply my post count went up right away so maybe I have it set right.

Me, too, George.

It looks like when I post it changes the number on all of my post so when I look back they are all alike. That is what messed me up. It dont take much.....Larry
