Comment:
Very odd that we're not upgrading a user's total_group_count when they
join. (We do when they accept an invitation or when the request is
approved.) I guess it's never come up, because we don't really appear to
use this value anywhere in BP, at least not where I can see.
So, yes, it appears that we should be doing so.
Also, everywhere where we change total_group_count, we do it by
incrementing or decrementing the current count. This can cause problems
like the one you describe. Instead, I think it makes more sense to
actually tabulate the group count at that moment, by querying the group
member table. It definitely takes more resources to do this, but
joining/leaving groups is a pretty rare occurrence.
Moving to 1.8 for examination. If you have a patch for either of these two
problems, please feel free to post it.
