It’s pretty much all in the title, when i edit a post, or even publish the post. The counter goes up by the amount of links to the download i have in the post, is this what it’s supposed to do? i think it’s a bug

I think it’s a bug and not one I have tracked yet. Try outting a nofollow in the link could you? See if that helps it…

I had another thought about this which may provide the answer.
You said that the counter updates whenever you edit or publish a post and I assume you mean by that, a post with a link in it to the download. At least I assume you do bot mean EVERY post regardless.
One possibility is that WP will send a ping to any link and it has always sent a ping to internal url’s as well. Thus may, perhaps, cause the trigger. The way around this (and it solves the ing problem as well) is to use a relative path instead of the full address. WP will not then send the ping. I’d be fascinated to know if this is the problem…

Sorry for the slow reply.
I wasn’t sure what a nofollow link was but i asked in the wordpress IRC channel and they told me i had to use rel="nofollow" inside <a >
That didn’t fix it.
However i changed it to use an internal link and now it’s all working. Thanks 
Maybe as a fix you could stop the post counter from rising if it was requested from localhost.

Well it’s good to hear it proven. I’ll try and do some work on this as soon as V3 of the forum is out the door once and for all.
