I am not having a problem with the post count, once I read the new posts, the number drops to 0.
I'm sure that Bob will fix any glitches with the new software.
You have to cluck on What's New and in the drop down menu, click on New Posts, Liz.
That will reduce the post count.
AS for the Edit button, I don't have one either.
I've let Bob, our forum owner know.
