Interesting...

Thanks for the update, actually had it updated yesterday. Problem is it doesn't appear that any topic views are now registering in the entire forum.

This one has 3 replies and 0 views which I think would be impossible.

I have a topic that has 75 posts but 5 views and these views were from before yesterday..

I can allow you to go in and poke around. I can really use some help here.

Well it's official... post views have come to a complete stop. I have no idea of knowing how many views are taking place.

Any ideas?

Originally it was working as it should, like I explained in the one post, since it was only a couple people posting in the topic, the views were much lower than the replies. So that was normal, so not much can be done on the official support side. For now, I'd go back to the stock code, remove the change, so it at least tracks the way it should stock.

What you're looking for really, is a modification, and it looks like that's where the problem lies at this point. Couple options would be to either hit UBBDev as there are a few people that specialize in modifications. If you can't find anyone to take up the task there, you can PM me here as I do smaller ones on a case by case basis as I have the time (which isn't much).

IME the views number doesn't always update properly, even here at UBBCentral. For instance, I went to the Pre-Sales Questions forum and read the Running in a cluster at the web server level? post, and 15 minutes later the number of views still says 0. Cleared Firefox's cache just in case that was involved but no change.

The views do not update in real time. They only update when a post has been made somewhere else on the forum. As you can see, the views have updated now, though I do still need to respond to your question.

And it can't be you unless you remove your cookie and log back in. It needs to be another user(s) posting to see the change.

I made a plea for help at the DEV side hopefully something can come of it. I don't want to leave UBB to have to compete with other forums that operate the way I need to. I have been with UBB for 10 years.

This is probably something I'll put an option for in our next feature version. Maybe something you can just choose, so it will track the way it currently does or track every click. It will still use a caching system to prevent table locks from updating the views live however.

Thanks Rick
