I have just been looking at the number of posts I have made and my total seems to be stuck on 171 despite me making further posts. Could someone please check?
Thank you.

Only posts made in the childminding areas count towards your 'post count' I believe.

So anything posted in the lounge, just for members etc will not be counted (took me ages to realise this and I was stuck for ages as I mostly post in just for members!)
