Discrepancy in Mod Download Counts on Mod Portal

Post by Daschi »

Hello everyone,

I wanted to bring up an issue I've noticed regarding the download count display on the Mod Portal. I released a mod 14 days ago, and while it does have downloads (as shown on the mod’s direct page), the download count in the search and discovery view still shows zero.

For example, if you search for the mod via this search query, the count remains at zero. However, visiting the mod page directly shows the actual number of downloads correctly.

I'm wondering if this discrepancy is a known issue, a bug, or simply an expected delay in updating the search/download counts. It’s been two weeks since the release, so I expected the numbers to align by now.

Has anyone else encountered this with their mods? Is it part of how the system updates?

Thank you for any insights!

After almost a month, this still remains that way. Does anyone have any insights?

It seems this has now been resolved, and the download count is accurately reflected.
