Is there a setting in my profile that must be set that counts the number of posts that I make, as it never appears to increase, as my present count is the same as a year and looking back on my recent posts the count never seems to update.
Looking at this post, it has updated by one so does that mean you only it is only counted as a post if you start a new post.
Or are quick replies not counted, as that is how I usually reply to a post.
Cheers
David

Well, lemme see what happens here. I'll post this and see what my total posts amounts to. Then I'll post again.

Roite, well that previous post total was 2229, so this should be 2230, yeah? If it is, then my counter works but I'm afraid I can't suggest anything to solve your problem, David.
Just out of curiosity, I wonder if the counter changes when you edit a post.
No, it doesn't. But all previous posts click over to whatever the current one is. So my last two show the same number... 2230.

Is it if you actually "post" as in a new topic - i.e - it does not change when you do a "reply" ?

My post count as I type this is 749, this post should bring up 750.
sorry, I forgot to say the 1000 pts were donated by CC (John)

Thanks everyone probably don't have a problem now, just my misunderstanding how the counting of posts works, all good now, Thanks for all those posts Wombat, I suppose that will make me a guru or something now, I'm going to be very disappointed if this is not the case as soon as I post this.
But it looks that it will be a long while before I can become a master.
Cheers
David

He is a shocker isn't he David. He needs them so can continue chasing the Master (bow scrape).
Gary, your maths are shocking, you said it would be 2,230, and it is actually 2,240!
