For some reason it's now always saying 0 guests - checked it logged out on another machine and it still says 0.

If this isn't a quick fix can we just turn it off? Makes the site look dead!

you're right, it does always say that. It's not true either, the vast majority of visitors to libcom are unregistered new users.

Click submit content - issues and set up a ticket for the problem.

wholly different glitch: sometimes the number of "new" posts is larger than the than the number of total posts listed above it.

I think that gltich is due to posts from spammers that get deleted. I don't think it's easily fixable, since facebook still has the same problem, and their programming team are probably a bit more professional than libcoms.

Thanks for the confidence Farce tongue

Anyway I've turned the anonomyous user count off. The reason it broke is 'cos we moved user sessions from the database to shared memory, which speeds the site up, but makes the database query return empty.

The facebook programming team is probably just too busy writing useless apps. This is actually pretty easy to fix, at least in drupal.
