[Solved] Think this is from a spam message a while back

Got this issue here on the forums.

  • Can you explain a bit more? Did you lose your PM messages? Or is it just some SQL problems with vf.org?

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

    He's talking about "this forum" - which I presume means vf.org
    I've seen this problem before where a message is deleted before the user reads it. It remains +1 for any new messages you get. In older versions you could never clear the 1 except by setting the conversation count to 0 via phpmyadmin for that user.

    Maybe in this version you can send yourself a message and see if it gets cleared, when you delete your own message. You couldn't before, but maybe it properly checks now.

    I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.

  • Yeah, I'm talking about vanillaforums.org. There was a spammer sending out messages a while back and they got deleted, and it's been like that ever since.

    Seems like sending myself a message fixed it.
