    Minor forum glitch: "likes received" not displaying

    It's not something I'm tremendously worried about; I realise that banging away on vBulletin until it meets your needs is a messy thing, and occasionally installing a passthru grommet in a gestetner flange will disconnect the distal end of the frammis linkage from the arbuckle knuckle joint.

    Overall, the system seems to work: the notifications work (which is how I found out) and the counter in the profile sidebar works as well (it has incremented to what I believe to be the correct value), but there's nothing but "1 Likes" displaying in the "Likes Received" tab on my profile. That would seem to indicate that the problem is probably isolated to a single line of code (which, no doubt, is included in a file that's included in a file that's included in a file... oh, how I hate "systems").

    Re: Minor forum glitch: "likes received" not displaying

    Without meaning to sound rude, might I suggest reading what I posted before replying? I'm reporting a bug, and you're pointing at something entirely different and saying "that works". Sorry if that sounds brusque, but I'm a bit sensitive to that sort of thing -- I've seen major products die because the first-level help desk closed tickets that should have been forwarded to development.

    I explicitly stated in the original posting that the sidebar counter was working as advertised (as are the notifications). It's the list of likes (who did the liking and what they liked) that doesn't work at the moment.

    You are right. I scanned your question without reading it in detail.

    Perhaps someone else can handle your problem.

    Thanks for the reply, and again, sorry about the tone if it was off. (A developer with real social graces is rather like a vanilla-scented wood rasp: they may exist, but I haven't run across one yet.)

    After some guess and test... this should be resolved.
