I have a really really weird bug with comments that started immediately after updating from 2.5 to 2.5.1. Pretty much it always shows that I have comments awaiting moderation… yet I dont.
Here is a screenshot:
I do use wpcache but the bug is there with or without it enabled. I have searched and no body else seems to be experiencing it. Any ideas? =P

That could be a pain, always thinking you have more work then you actually have.

Oh shit !! I got this problem too in one of my WP blogs ! If you fix it please let me know.
May 18, 2008 at 4:56 pm
Ahah what stupid bug
hope to fix

Did you ever get this resolved Jeremy?
If not did you try what was posted at the link in the post at May 14, 2008 12:02 am above?

I guess you just have to stick with 2.5?
Maybe wp 2.5.1 has not been tested with a blog having average comments of about 40 to 50 per post? lol…
May 14, 2008 at 4:40 pm
I’ve never used Askimet…but I do get a lot of spam. Is it that helpful?
May 14, 2008 at 1:15 pm
Let me know if you get it fixed, i’m having the same problem.
May 14, 2008 at 2:19 am
Seems to there are plugin you that conflict with the application of comment at wordpress, tried cheque again plugin like ” Reply to this comment” and the like
May 14, 2008 at 1:03 am
That is 1 reason I haven’t updated to wordpress 2.5.1, more bugs to deal with. No Thanks..
May 14, 2008 at 12:02 am
Ooopss…I tried to post this but it went into moderation I guess…lol
Hey Jeremy,
I found this at Wordpress so you can check it out and see if it will help you or not. If it does you can post an update in your post just in case someone is searching for the answer online

I see its still not resolved right?
May 13, 2008 at 8:00 pm
I haven’t run into that yet, but since upgrading to 2.5.1, I’ve had two comments never show up anywhere–except for in the email telling me there was a new comment. One of the times, WP sent me 4 or 5 emails telling me about the same comment. Maybe it’s an unrelated fluke, but it seemed odd since I’ve never had it happen before, then twice with the newest version.
May 13, 2008 at 6:49 pm
I haven’t had that problem, but I had a worse one: one of my blogs got hacked as soon as I upgraded! My freaking hosting service was just like “yep, it got hacked,” when I asked them about it. Scorching-hot emails full of demands that they at least tell me how and how to prevent it are pending….
May 13, 2008 at 3:20 pm
Sometimes it’s better to wait a wee bit before upgrading. Another sterling, albeit more extreme, example is Windows XP vs Vista.
May 13, 2008 at 2:38 pm
my suggestion is to apply wp version 2.5 because 2.5.1 is version which too in a hurry published by wp so that there are still bug which has not been finalized.
May 13, 2008 at 1:39 pm
I am still on 2.5.0 and I sometimes see this as well, but then if I move my mouse over the number it sometimes fades away…
May 13, 2008 at 9:32 am
I am more, “old school”, I use 2.3 still, so no problems for me
May 13, 2008 at 9:31 am
hmm I am not experiencing it … wondering what is going wrong … Maybe server issue ?
May 13, 2008 at 7:40 am
I’m having a really mixed experience with 2.5 in general.
But try Defensio for a good anti-spam plugin — it works with 2.5, I don’t know about 2.5.1, though.
May 13, 2008 at 6:49 am
I use Spam Karma, I figured out this number was the number of comments that it thought was spam, but Akismet said it wasn’t, so it wanted me to yea or nea it. Dunno if you are using that too. SK2 is awesome.
May 13, 2008 at 6:05 am
I am using 2.5 in one blog and updated to 2.5.1 in the other.
Found 2.5 to be better.
May 13, 2008 at 4:31 am
Here’s an idea:
Don’t upgrade to new Wordpress branch till they release x.x.2
May 13, 2008 at 2:32 am
Do you use 2.5 or you have already updated to 2.5.1?
May 13, 2008 at 2:10 am
yup all tested
May 13, 2008 at 2:10 am
yup
May 13, 2008 at 12:20 am
btw, you have a comment in moderation now!
May 13, 2008 at 12:20 am
I have another Akismet bug that I wrote about here. Annoying.
May 13, 2008 at 12:12 am
Cookies? Browser Cache? is the default Wordpress Cache in wp-config enabled? —–> define(‘ENABLE_CACHE’,true);
May 12, 2008 at 11:58 pm
I’m not sure if that’s really a bug, i still haven’t experienced that.
May 12, 2008 at 11:04 pm
2.5 is comfortable that the 2.5.1 release!
Some bugs fixed but more bugs included in it.
May 12, 2008 at 10:18 pm
I have similar bug and still looking for a solution.
I searched wordpress forum, but in vain.
plz update.
May 12, 2008 at 10:04 pm
I dislike the newer version of WP. I have heard that even numbered releases are more stable than odd. Most programmers follow that rule. 2.5.1 is odd, and obviously unstable
May 12, 2008 at 8:50 pm
I’m still not sure I like the new interface over the old one. In some ways it is quicker but in some ways it’s not. The old way was so comfortable – 2.5 is a bit like trying to reinvent the wheel.

Does it still stay there after you’ve logged out and log back in too?
I haven’t had this problem happen with the new wordpress, but I’ve had issues with the image uploader for some reason.

Hey Shoe,
I’m having this EXACT same issue and can’t find any solution either. I hope this post outs something. My numbers up in the 100s now.
May 12, 2008 at 7:17 pm
After deleting comments it shows some still in que – that irritates me.
May 12, 2008 at 7:08 pm
sometimes on our blog we have to approve comments multiple times before they will show on posts. Not sure why that is either because it happens “sometimes” not all the time.
May 12, 2008 at 7:06 pm
For the 1st time in a long time I had pure WP hell this weekend getting installs completed. Tried downloads from site, installs via fantastico, manual tweeks, and all failed. In the end deleted all installs and will start again on different server. Odd since no problems with 2.5 installs on same server.
I do have a wp 2.51 running with wpcache and experiencing no comment problems on that. Could it be one of your other plugins (gravatars) causing the problem?
