Recount post counters times out
Feb 6th, 2006 at 5:04am
Print Post  
I have a forum with a somewhat large number of posts (about 25,000) on it. Unfortunately, I have a new administrator who has been playing with some of the tools in the admin center, learning how things work.

He used the Recount Member Post Totals tool, and it worked for a couple of minutes, then times out, and now all of our posters have lost something like 1/3 of their listed posts. (The posts are still there, but aren't showing up in the posting totals.)

I need to find a way to get these totals back to their correct figures, before I am hung up to dry.

Anybody have any suggestions?

Can anybody write a small mod that will add a recount posts button to the profile? Maybe if it were only doing one member at a time, it would manage to finish.

HELP!

(Darn newbie admins!)

Yeah, suppose that could help, couldn't it!

1.3

Everything else is still fine, but most people's post totals are way low.

If you knock your head against a brick wall and hear a hollow sound, it's not necessarily coming from the wall.

Now I KNOW I'm losing it ... I thought I already had this on my board, but it isn't there!

But Carsten ... great to see you around again!  Grin

Don't know how it happened, but the entire mod was on my forum, but somehow the line putting the link in the profile had vanished.

I edited it back in, and now I can recount member's totals!

Thanks, Carsten!

(Gonna convert more of your great mods to YaBB 2.1 eventually?)
