'Insider News' threads always show #2 ... but ...
-
This happens when there are no replies, yet, to the thread. "View the reply to this message" also appears when there are no replies. imho, if there are no replies, I'd like to see #1, not #2, and I think the "View the reply to this message" link should either be hidden, or appear grayed-out. thanks, Bill
«When I consider my brief span of life, swallowed up in an eternity before and after, the little space I fill, and even can see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of spaces of which I am ignorant, and which know me not, I am frightened, and am astonished at being here rather than there; for there is no reason why here rather than there, now rather than then.» Blaise Pascal

Not sure what you mean by #1 and #2.

I think he means the "thread length" counts on the front page. Certainly seems to be
max(real_count, 2)

Hi, Chris, Right now, viewing 'Insider News' in 'Thread View:' all posts by Kent show the number #2 at the far right of the thread title, and the content of the post has an active link 'View the reply to this message' ... Like this one: [^] ... but there are no replies to such posts. This results in my clicking the ''View the reply' link ... I'm crazy enough to often read the replies ... and finding nothing there. Unfortunately, finding nothing there this way does not improve me in the way finding nothing there while meditating does :wtf: If the intent of the number at the far right of the thread is to, usefully, indicate the number of responses, then I suggest there's a problem. And, having an active link that effectively does nothing is not optimal. cheers, Bill

Should be good now. Found a logic error that spanned two stored procedures, two edit pages, the Spam Filter and a background process. Took 3 hours to find and three lines changed to fix.
