I’m currently digging around a Users pages post count issue,

> I had SkipGuy1 (née ScrollGuy1) use a topics replies columns “jump button” to go directly to the last post of a couple of never before entered 38 posts topics. His post count in the Users page went up 76 posts, his profile post count went up by 2 Chasing down the elusive posts read value was an adventure. The Users page gets the posts\_read value from directory\_items directory\_items gets the value from user\_visits The value in users\_visits is set from user.rb user.rb gets the value from top…

A lot of it is over my head and I’ve run into to some road blocks, but I am getting things narrowed down some.

If I see anything that could be a problem with data in addition to the code related to post count I’ll be sure to take note of those too.
