Page refresh doesn't alter this. It's the same for all the other posters. Every time you post, your post count increases and every post you have made previously will show that new post count. My post count is currently 1564, until I press submit when I expect both of my replies in this thread to show 1565. Quote

Because it should always show your current number of posts, regardless if it's your first or 1,000th (in reference to what you were saying about 1949Threepence) For me this is your post number 399. The one immediately following is also number 399. Yet refreshing the page doesn't seem to make any difference. Quote

Yet refreshing the page doesn't seem to make any difference. Every post in every thread will show the same post number - your current one. Everytime you post, your post count will increase everywhere, on your profile and in every previous post in every thread, so it will always show your highest post count. Although I don't understand the 399 part, as my posts are 2000+, does it show as 399 on your screen or is that just an example? Quote

However, the my overall point stands, which is that you are shown as having posted 2264 times, and this number is shown against every one of your posts on this thread. Surely, the post after 2264 should then be 2265, or am I being too simplistic. Either way, I'm confused. Ditto, 1949threepence has the same number of posts despite there being 2 which are about 20 hours apart. Quote

The system isn't telling you what post that is in terms of "Post 100 out of 500" it's just telling you how many posts that user has made on the site, so it will always show the highest number on every post.

Page refresh doesn't alter this. It's the same for all the other posters. That's the way it should be. All posts, right from the first one you posted when you first joined, should show the current cumulative total. Your first post doesn't remain on 1, and so on. They all show the same number, so that you or anyone else looking at any post you made, will know instantly how many you have posted in your time here, in total. Some forums do have a slight update problem in that whilst the post you just made will show the correct total, some older posts lag a few behind, and it takes them time to update. This forum seems OK in that regard, though. ETA: I see Matt has already explained this principle. Sorry. Edited September 11, 2016 by 1949threepence Quote
