I don't know what happened to my site it was working well for some months but from one day the number of posts went mad.
Next to all new user names, i am having a number that is not starting with zero but with something like 1677721 on all my new members.

For example the member below is new and in real sense he has less than 3 posts but look at what it shows. The same figures show on the top posters block.

I have spend hours on the XOOPS search typing all the key words that came to mind but in vain.

What is wrong and how can i make it right?

???????
Am still waiting for some help, please. my site looks real stupid.

Well, this is a new one on me and it definitely sounds database related, but let's see if we can narrow this down some...

What Forum module are you using?
What version of XOOPS are you using?
What is your PHP debug (Errors only please) output when you view your forum?
What is your MySQL debug (Errors only please) output when you view your forum?
Have you checked the database structure for the forum tables (thinks like default value)?
What changed between the time when everything was working and when it stopped working correctly?
Does anyone, but you have access to your site's database?
Has your hosting provider made any changes to MySQL lately?

Hope these questions get you started in the right direction.

..just curious to note that 16777215 converts to FFFFFF in hex.

? Zero - 1
or a bad table in the DB?
