Odd....

I'm not sure if this is a big issue or not but on the thread cycle debate I can't get to the sixth page. It says there's a sixth page but I can't get past the 5th. I'm fairly certian that I'm still reading the latest posts on it but I'm not sure what's up.
This seems to be happening only with this thread and I've tried multiple computers so I know that it's not that.
Any idea's?

I noticed that too, a few hours ago. Odd, is something wrong with it?

I had that happen yesterday when the topic was on the switch from page 4 to page 5, it seems it was on the last post of 4 and displayed 5 but 5 didn't show until one more post was actually made.

I'm don't think so... though one of the mods sguold*(?) did split it up I remember reading...

If I read correctly the whole debacle started as a discussion on another thread and sgould split this one off into its own thread. That's happened before though and this didn't happen. I thought maybe there was a post on page 5 that a mod had 'locked' (proper term?) or some glitch in software... but yeah it's not anyone's computer it's the thread.

Aha!
I know what's going on. There are a number of posts in the thread that are currently not showing. vBulletin is counting them when it's tabulating page numbers outside of the thread, but when you look at it from the inside, it is not counting them.

Why wouldn't the posts be showing?

Some things are done on an administrative level and no explanation is needed other than to know it's done for the good of the forum.

While I'm in no way attempting to argue with the decision to "not currently show" certain posts, speaking as a web designer and from a site usability perspective, you (meaning the FishLore admin team, not sirdarksol personally) might want to consider altering the 'Latest 10 posts' section beneath all the forum headings to also "not currently show" those posts.

They are visible there until 10 newer posts push them off the list, and clicking the link to a hidden post directs you to the latest post in the thread that is visible rather than what you clicked on. That can really be quite confusing for users that don't know what's going on.
