because there is a cache of 5 minutes from the last time you visited the dashboard
when you saw 1 new user, you clicked and approved it. then you went back within 5 minutes and saw that same 1 new user awaiting again, and you attempted to approve the cached number again (from the dashboard cookie), but there really was no user there since it was cached data that was shown to you the second time you visited the page within 5 minutes.
like i said in my post just above, the cached data cookie should be wiped instead. this will happen in the next release of ubbt.
Did you try the clear cache in the cp
that clears the server cache. the first issue that BaldEagle is had was the browser cache being corrupted. now that its no longer being corrupted, he's seeing old data being displayed. the data expires after 5 minutes (either 5 or 15, i dont recall exactly). but the cache was written so dashboard isnt constantly polling the database for massive amounts of data each time its loaded. it was written, along with some other cookie related items over 15 years ago (2007/2009?) for php 5.1 and had several bugs in it, that php 5.x and 7.x were able to ignore/hide. php8 is strict, and will present an error upon reaching bad code. most everything has been found and corrected since ubbt8, but moving forward, some edge cases have been found since - such as this cookie corruption issue caused by an unrelated script.
