Description of problem

As the title, my forum only show the number of view at 9999. Only when I click on those 9999 view post then go back to sub-forum then it show to 10000.

And I believe it can not grow up by it self any more, only I reload page by my account and it grow up as I view.

I try to view the topic as a guest in the incognito mode and the counting not working.

Please help me to solve this

Thanks!

Thank you, skouliki!

I don't remember if I changed something recently but that should be the skin.

I heard that forumotion doesn't allow guest view passing over 9999. Is it true or not. If it is true, I think there should be an other way to prevent view counting spam better than limit view. 

Now I don't know what topic do people like the most.

We have here topics that says 10100 so i guess there is no limits




Did you try to deactivate the js to check if one of your js causing this?

The only place that could affect this is the templates, because the value appears in the page's source code, which javascript/css can't modify. I suppose this is just a limitation imposed by forumotion. I'm pretty sure there's a topic somewhere around this forum with details about this type of limitations. Couldn't find it though

View counts are not listed in the limitations topic (still available to staff), but that doesn't nessecarily mean a limit doesnt exist (the topic is from like 8 years ago). As far as we know there is no limit on topic views counter though.

try to put the default templates to check if this is an template modification error
