Super Administrator posts

[DuvalM]

Just FYI, when setting up a new forum, the super admin always has 11 posts when in fact he has none anywhere.

Moved to the correct section.

This is a known bug and post counts aren't being counted correctly. For the future, you'll want to submit bug reports to JIRA. But thank you for spotting this

I did not think that it was a bug, but I will.

Anything that's not working correctly (i.e. as designed) is a Bug.

It is actually 11 nodes. Since channels are nodes, they are counted as well. When you install a vBulletin 5 Connect site, a number of channels are created (Homepage, Forum, Blogs, Social Groups, Special to name a few). Over time though, this bump in "posts" is really negligible.

Are you saying it's not a bug?
It's called Total Posts, so you should be counting posts.
Otherwise call it total nodes.

[Wayne Luke]

Saying it counts things differently. Nodes isn't really an appropriate term because it is meaningless to end-users. Then again neither is posts at this stage of the game as vBulletin 5 doesn't really have posts. It has Blog Entries, Super Group Discussions, Topics and Replies, etc...

We have a bug report in on the issue but it really is a minor issue, not something we're going to stop more important work for.

Super Group Discussions

are they like normal Group Discussions but pants over their trousers and a cape?

Nothing should be minor. I see this one still being on the books when vb6 will come out.

Reality dictates otherwise.
