Sorry for the delay – no, not quite. In the backend of simple:press; they’re listed as members of the user group “moderator” – this one was never changed. All in all, this list contains five moderators at the moment.

Three of those are still moderators in the statistics; in the backend and in the sfmembers table (they got the “1” in the respective column. The other two still seem to have moderator capabilities (locking threads and so on), are – according to the backend – in the user group moderators, but do not show up in the statistics nor do they have the aforementioned “1” in the sfmembers table. Changing the value in the table didn’t have any effect btw.

Hope this helps a bit. This has me baffled… not a major issue; but i’m looking forward to your magic bag of tricks laugh.

 

Best regards, Dosenben

The question really is why do they not have the moderator flag in their sfmembers record? And that I am unsure of.

Clearly if you can change those to a 1 they should regain their moderator status and rights. As to the stats then this is cached so it takes a while for it to update.

But if you are using the latest SP then you can fo to the forum toolbox and open the CRON panel and force it to run using the sph_stats_cron hook (in the Run Cron box). See if that forces an update.

Hey Andy,

 

yeah, that did the trick – i marked the three members up as moderators and used your command; stats are back up. Really weird though. As usual, my (small) problem was taken care quick, professional and most polite! laugh. And, as usual, very much obliged!

 

best regards!

Thanks. And for the update. I wish now we could get to the bottom of why this sometimes seems to happen although it does appear to be quite rare…
