False comments after upgrade to 2.9.1

Are you using the comments_number function for your theme?

I am using this function for my theme to display number of comments for the post or page and its working well in 2.9.1

Hope it helps!

It’s happening to me as well.

This is the code that worked before the upgrade
comments_popup_link(__(‘0’), __(‘1’), __(‘%’), ”, __(‘–‘));

Comment count on the blog homepage (index.php template) is +2 everywhere.

If there isn’t any comment, it shows 2 instead of 0.
If I post the first comment to a post, the counter will show 3 instead of 1 and so on.

The comments_popup_link tag was really helpful because it allowed me to link the comment count to the comments page with a single method.

Now I tried to use
comments_number(‘0’, ‘1’, ‘%’);
and it shows the right number of comments, but I’ll surely have to link it manually to the comments page.

Is this a bug of 2.9.1 or has the comments_popup_link method been eliminated for good?

Thanks!

My comments number are crazy after upgrade too. It shows a random number of comments in every post: gelo.tv

I’m using comments_number('0', '1', '%');
I have no clue of what’s going on. Maybe ZDmultilang plugin is doing something wrong?

I’m still having this issue, getting a random number of comments per post.

I tried to activate the default WordPress theme to see if it is a problem of my theme. Nop, even the default theme shows a wrong count.

Any help please?
