RE: Wrong number of post shown on users profile description - Steemit
This is actually the expected behavior. Each post and each comment count as 1 "post" as shown in condenser. This number is part of the account information of each steem account in the blockchain. The number is typically the sum of contributions in the "Blog" and the "Comments" tab in Condenser. However, if a users deletes a post or a comment it is not shown in "Blog" or "Comments" anymore, but since it is still in the blockchain it is still counted as a post. So you can have user accounts with a non-zero "Post count" but empty "Blog" and the "Comments" tabs in Condenser.
well if that is the case then it should display the correct count of the comments too but as u can see in the video that is not the case so it should be considered as a bug mod :)
Posts and comments are the same type of blockchain operation, the only difference (apart from a few minor rules) is that comments have a "parent". This count is (correctly) shown in condenser. A differentiation between posts and comments is not available without changing the steem implementation or parsing the full(!) author history.
Sorry, I'm not reviewing your contribution, I just came across it by chance - a bug mod will certainly review it shortly :)
hehe okay mod :)
