What causes the views count to a thread to not update or is it a long delay before it is updated

I watched a thread that 5 people had read yet 30 minutes later the views count is still at zero ?
I myself read the thread 3 times and still count is at zero


Thanks

I believe it should update a set period of time as to not pound the database; I'm not sure what this timeframe is offhand however.

I wrote a post at 3:45 PM today,
at 7:45 PM the views count is still at zero yet who is online has shown several have read that thread

Does it not count those who are not logged in ?

Odd, I'm relatively sure that it should have updated in a 4 hour period lol...

As for if it tallies guest, I'm pretty sure it does; but I could be wrong

It is now over 5 hours and the view count for that 1 thread is still zero, yet even more have read that thread.

it is now 18 hours and still this thread reports ZERO views so this is some type of bug with V 7.2 and now tells me why many threads report view views on most other threads

The thread view counters only update whenever a post is added. So, if you make a post, and then no other post is made for 12 hours, but many views, those views won't be added until another post is actually made.

I was going to say that lol

Yes I find this bug indeed will not update a threads "views" counter as long as it is the newest posting.

Once a newer post is made and only then does the views counter stuck at zero change but even then these counters are not correct.

Ahh, here I was thinking it would update automagically after an hour or so :hangs head in shame:
