I seem to have a strange problem with some posts that need to be moderating disappearing.

I log in to the ACP and it shows 16 posts to moderate and 1 message to moderate. If i log in to the posts to moderate then no problem.

If however i click on messages to moderate first then after i have moderated this when it returns to the ACP it shows 0 posts to moderate. They still have not been moderated but have disappeared. If i browse my forums it shows the little moderator icon and the threads have not been ok'd.

Solution?

This does not happen with the default vB.

To troubleshoot this, first reupload all the original vB non-image files (except install.php). Make sure you upload these in ASCII format and overwrite the ones on the server. Also be sure to upload the admincp files to whichever directory you have set in your config.php file. Then run 'Suspect File Versions' in Diagnostics to make sure you have all the original files for your version and that none show 'File does not contain expected contents':

Admin CP -> Maintenance -> Diagnostics -> Suspect File Versions

[Note: In some cases you may also need to remove any of the listed .xml files in the includes/xml directory.]

Next, disable all plugins.

Note: To temporarily disable the plugin system, edit config.php and add this line right under <?php

define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

Then if you still have this problem, create a new style and choose no parent style. This will force it to use the default templates. Finally empty your browser cache, close all browser windows then try again. Make sure you change to the new style and view your forums with it. Do you have the same problem?
