Recount Member Posts
This mod will allow the admin to recount every members post counts back to their respective numbers. Due to a variety of mods as well as human who can manipulate members' post counts, this mod may serve many well for when they wish to reset their forums.
Thanks

Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
My forum has had difficulties with this mod. It applied itself to only a handful of users, and left the vast majority with their original (altered) post count.
We had accepted post counts from a prior forum up until some time ago, and recently decided to get rid of them entirely. These "recoveries" were done over an extensive period of time, so we're confused as to how the process worked. The selection process for whose posts to remove seems haphazard at best.
Is there any way to ensure it applies universally?
edit: weee caps lock
As long as it completes all the members it should do the post counts. It does check if the posts where made in a forum that does not count posts.
Updated for SMF 2.0 RC3!

It only did a handful, as I said. Any ideas as to why?
Did it stop and not reach 100%?

It goes to the "Not Done!" screen very briefly, then just ends. It's usually at 6% or so at the time of doing this.
It just ends as in the screen is stuck? Or do you get a white page? What page does it end up on?
Why in file installrc3.xml made this change?
<file name="$themedir/ManageMaintenance.template.php">
<operation>
<search position="after"><![CDATA[<div class="cat_bar">
<h3 class="catbg">', $txt['maintain_logs'], '</h3>
</div>]]></search>
<add><![CDATA[<div class="cat_bar">
<h3 class="catbg">', $txt['maintain_logs'], '</h3>
In my opinion, appropriate to be replaced by a variable $txt['maintain_recount_posts'], as in the file install.xml:
<file name="$themedir/ManageMaintenance.template.php">
<operation>
<search position="after"><![CDATA[<div class="cat_bar">
<h3 class="catbg">', $txt['maintain_logs'], '</h3>
</div>]]></search>
<add><![CDATA[<div class="cat_bar">
<h3 class="catbg">', $txt['maintain_recount_posts'], '</h3>
Sorry for bad English - I'm worried :)
In addition, Russian-language translation here:
this for languages-utf8.xml (encoded to UTF8 w\o BOM)
<file name="$languagedir/ManageMaintenance.russian-utf8.php" error="skip">
<operation>
<search position="after"><![CDATA[$txt['maintain_errors']]]></search>
<add><![CDATA[$txt['maintain_recount_posts'] = 'Пересчитать количество сообщений у всех пользователей';
$txt['maintain_recount_posts_info'] = 'Если общее количество сообщений какого-либо пользователя было изменено, запустите эту операцию. Будет восстановлено реальное количество сообщений.';]]></add>
</operation>
</file>
and this for languages.xml (encoded to ANSI):
<file name="$languagedir/ManageMaintenance.russian.php" error="skip">
<operation>
<search position="after"><![CDATA[$txt['maintain_errors']]]></search>
<add><![CDATA[$txt['maintain_recount_posts'] = 'Пересчитать количество сообщений у всех пользователей';
$txt['maintain_recount_posts_info'] = 'Если общее количество сообщений какого-либо пользователя было изменено, запустите эту операцию. Будет восстановлено реальное количество сообщений.';]]></add>
</operation>
</file>

It shows me the Not Done screen with the loading bar, then goes back to the page for maintenance.
same i just installed it and i have a few problems. 1 its labeled as a second empty out unimportant logs and 2 it does the first 3% then stops and goes back to the maintenance screen.
Updated the mod with a fix that should help with that issue.
The header had the same title.
Fixed that too thanks. Updated posted
cool it fixed the title of it been wrong its now correctly labled but its still not going past 3%
This doesn't work when moving database to another forum. It still have post counts from another database.
BTW...this doesn't show the green thing. :P
Stops at 1% for me too, on a big board. Please fix this.
can not install at RC4
can you update the package

Just echoing this. Any chance of a working version for RC4?
It installs if you emulate version 2.0RC3.
*sigh* I have the same problem as one of the people in the 1st page... the recount was applied only to some people, leaving a lot out.
When I press the button I see the screen with the progress bar, it stays at 48% for a second, then it goes back to the maintenance screen.
No messages, no confirmation, nada
No idea why, but it does indeed look like this only goes as far as the first refresh in versions post RC3.
I tested with RC5 just now, and it did 6%, refreshed and jumped back to the maintanence section with no confirmation or anything.
vbgamer45, is this mod going to be updated for SMF 2.0 Final?
Updated for SMF 2.0
very useful mod. will install once I can get on my forum
Thanks
Just as earlier when I tested this on my live forum, it seems to work for a while, and then just stop without any confirmation or anything... Did not work for me. (I have a test member with manually set post count of over a thousand, and it stayed that way... )
I checked it over again I can't find anything that looks wrong I use the same code in a couple mods.
Don't know either - Don't have time to start looking in to it, but there are many people here saying the same, and I just confirmed it did it for me too...
I installed it yesterday on SMF 2.0 final and it works fine for me. Mind you I don't have a lot of mods like others do that may have a conflict.
I upgraded my 1.1.14 to a 2.0.
One member who once was an admin modified his postcount to something completely ridiculous, so I'd like to fix it.
I installed this mod, but his postcount doesn't change when I run it.
Doesn't work on my forum, SMF 2.0.1
I press to run task, gets to 8% 1st screen then returns to maintenance.
Checked members with inhuman post count, nothing changed.
Just to confirm also, ran, saind 24% paused, not done, then went straight back to the maintainence screen.
Hi all,
I know this is an old thread, but I'm trying to recount member posts on a forum after deleting large parts of the subject matter.
I have many members who's profile shows a number of posts, who actually have no posts in the system now. Here is an example: http://smf1.temac.ca/smf/index.php?action=profile;u=110
The stats say he has 1 post, but if you click "Show Posts", there are no results.
I've installed and run the mod several times. It doesn't seem to fix this. I have no other mods installed on a 2.0.5 installation.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Ben

I managed to fix this myself. The mod as it stands, doesn't appear to work.
First I manually set the batch processing size limit to 500 instead of 100, this allowed the updates to run in a single refresh. This activated the mod (with multiple batches it doesn't appear to work at all).
Then I noticed that it was leaving untouched members who have existing post stats but have 0 posts at all in the forums (due to deleting multiple forums in my case). The entire way this mod works is to start with a list of users from the messages table. By definition, if a member has left no messages, their stats won't be reset to zero. To get around this I zeros all of the "posts" values in the smf_members table, then reran the modified mod to recount the stats for those who had posted.
I tried this mod out for a relatively large forum (1700+ members and over 300,000 posts) a few weeks ago and the mod stopped after a certain period of time and percentage and took me back to the maintenance page. I checked out everything and the mod didn't fix any of the members' post counts correctly. The forum I'm referring to is using SMF 2.0.6 and I used the latest version of the mod.
Any ideas on how to fix the problem? Seems like it's stopping to not overload the server but instead of resuming where it left off, it terminates.
in order to get it work I had to replace
$context['continue_get_data'] = '?action=admin;area=maintain;sa=recountposts;start=' . $_REQUEST['start'] . ';' . $context['session_var'] . '=' . $context['session_id'];
with
$context['continue_get_data'] = '?action=admin;area=maintain;sa=routine;activity=recountposts;start=' . $_REQUEST['start'] . ';' . $context['session_var'] . '=' . $context['session_id'];
in Sources/ManageMaintenance.php
Still a awesome mod, though :)

Fixed thanks for the big tip!
Before i proceed to recount, i have a question:
J have some boards in my forum where posts don't count.
Will this mod take this in mind by the recounting?
Yes it does.
Thank you for your answer. :)
I have done the recount in a 16.000 members SMF 2.0.12 forum. The script was running to 100% without problems. I am not sure if it have done the job because i have focused in another problem:
One mod have changed the membergroups that are based in members post in a lot of members. So i have done the recount to fix the problem.
I was expecting that after the recount this members will return in their right membergrup but unfortunately the membergroups are untouched.
The question is: This mod takes in mind the membergroup based in posts by the recounting?
If it is modified SMF software that does something with post groups then no it does not.
No... smf does not recalculate a members post count base during group until they make a new post.
Was a 1.x version ever released?
No
Would you mind if I got this backported?
no
Why don't you just upgrade to the current version instead of continuing to use a version which is barely supported and won't work at all when you host drops the outdated, unsupported and vulnerable php version and instead of trying to keep nursing that outdated version along with custom work?

Indeed.
There is also another way to update these membergroups. After using the mod one can also edit each
post count based group and just save it. This will update each membergroup considering new recounted values.
