Hi, the info box, giving several infos like the number of views, which is displayed under the first post of a topic, is not always displayed on my site. Is there a rule which determines when it’s displayed ? Thanks.

We call this the Topic Map.

It only shows if the topic has at least one reply on regular topics.

It’s always displayed on PM topics

As a work around, If you would like to force the Topic Map to show, you can reply to it with a Whisper Post as a moderator/admin.

Nice workaround, thanks.

I tried that workaround. It works randomly, generally, it works when I create the whisper, then doesn’t work as soon as I refresh the page.
