I recently created a new world and noticed that the article count section of the dashboard was listing 13/42 articles instead of zero.   I checked my other world to see if this bug carried over, the article count seemed fine. I did notice that it was at the same number, 13/42, so I deleted an article out of curiosity. When I switched back to my new world the counter there had gone down to 12/42, matching the older world.   Reloading/using a different tab didn't fix the problem.

Steps to Reproduce

1. create new world 2. go to dashboard and note article count

Operating System

Windows

Browser

Firefox

Hey, it might be that you've accidentally created a few empty articles. Those don't show up on the main list, but you can find them by going to the "Articles & Categories" page, select "List" on the left and then "Stub articles". You can probably find a number of empty, untitled articles there to either delete or fill.   Please let me know here if this was the case, otherwise we can further look into this.

Hi, after reading through your report again, the issue is that this counter is account wide and not world-specific since our free limit of articles is account based itself. So what you're seeing is the global article count from both your worlds. The way it's displayed/explained may not be the best and we will discuss ways to make this clearer.   I will be closing this report since this isn't a bug.
