[wp-forums] topic count off for sub forum

[Mark Duncan]

Pretty sure the other forums are ok, i tend to peep at the advanced 
forum total threads every so often (so i know when there's a new 
advanced topic), it's what it should be as far as i can observe. Likely 
just some minor bug with thread counts on sub-forums (seeing as it's the 
only sub-forum we have).

I'm sure Michael will have seen your report to the list and will look 
into the problem. I just hope it's something minor/easy-to-fix, else i 
invision repeated posts to the forum asking why the count is off (a 
sticky in the forum could knock that on the head until the bug is 
quashed if necessary).
