Count Child Child Boards Posts
Counts n level child board posts, and shows the last post updated as well.
Adds a setting under Modification Settings for child board posts for max search depth. Will convert when upgraded to SMF 2.1
Note: This mod requires that [Count child's posts in parent's totals] from the boards settings has to be enabled

I do not quite understand ... I will have to install it in a test to find out :P. @vbgamer45 nice work!
Regards!
If you have board then a child board then another child board.
And someone posts in the last child board. That post will now be visible on the board index and you can go deeper depending on the depth setting entered.
It is similar to the one in SMF 2.1.x
Now I understand thank you very much for the explanation :D
Regards!
Glad to help.
Hi, I have just found this mod and it was exactly what I was looking for. I installed it, kinda works but there seems to be a problem. It shows more posts when in fact there are less posts. Not the number it shows. To better understand what I'm saying I will attach some prints.
Currently the total number of topics and posts on my forum is 365 posts in 133 topics. But in the print you will see that there are 503 posts in 120 topics (there are not so many in that category, just 262 posts and 68 topics). Can you please explain and help me solve this issue ?
Do you have any unapproved posts?
How many posts does each subcategory have under it?

I don't have any unapproved posts, members cand post without approval from administration. I'll attach another print ! The total amount of posts and topics in that whole category is: 262 posts and 68 topics
So can anyone help me with this one ?
Please give time. I haven't had any time to look in dept. Check back in a day or so.
I basically just ported the changes from 2.1 to 2.0

Sure no problem, I just wanted to make sure if anyone is trying to figure something out. I'll wait for your response, thank you :)
So is there any way to solve this ? Anyone ?
Is someone actually going to help me solve this problem ? If nothing can be done just tell me, don't make me wait for nothing.
I don't think anything can be done.
Thanks, mod works well on 2.0.15.
Mr Twix's issue doesn't make any sense to me.
My recommendation would have been to remove the mod, and if not fixed try checking the database manually to try clearing up where the numbers are not adding up.
The mod (i installed) says:
QuoteNote: This mod requires that [Count child's posts in parent's totals] from the boards settings has to be enabled
but where is that setting to be found, please ?
Admin -> Board Settings
Got it, thanks !
I installed this mod but it doesn't make the post of a child, child board show up in the "latest post" section on the forum home page.
I even set the level to 4 in the modification settings area to make sure I went down far enough.
Did I misinterpret what this mod does?
It would appear in this area on the board index only.

Ok. Thanks. I was thinking something different.
