Question: The category counter displays wrong number?

Answer:

The counter works fine, really. The “issue” you’re seeing is most likely that: you have more than one of the supported integrations active. Therefore the categories are global and applied to each of the integrations. But the terms count for the categories remains also global.

Example:

  • Example Category: “Landing Pages”
  • for “Landing Pages” – Count in “Elementor My Templates”: 5
  • for “Landing Pages” – Count in “Astra Custom Layouts”: 10

The term counter in the taxonomy list table will always display: 15. This is the global term count.

Continuing the example: When filtering in “Elementor My Templates” for “Landing Pages” you will get 5 results. Which is fully correct. These are the 5 results that are connected to this post type. The same filter in “Astra Custom Layouts” will bring 10, of course, as only these 10 terms are connected to this Layouts Post Type. And so on…! 🙂
