### 󠀁[Works Perfectly Under WordPress 6.9.1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-perfectly-under-wordpress-6-9-1/)󠁿

After deleting thousands of spam posts, including thousands of orphan categories,
I used the latest version of Fix Categories Count to reset the number of categories
to 0. It worked flawlessly and very fast.

I have a site with about 30,000 posts and the custom taxonomy count was off. After
running this plugin a few times the taxonomy count actually got worse. I had to 
run it a few times because it timed out. Not worry, though. I used the following
SQL to fix the problem and it ran very quickly. 9300 rows affected. (Query took 
2.9573 seconds.) UPDATE wp_term_taxonomy SET count = ( SELECT COUNT(*) FROM wp_term_relationships
rel LEFT JOIN wp_posts po ON (po.ID = rel.object_id) WHERE rel.term_taxonomy_id 
= wp_term_taxonomy.term_taxonomy_id AND wp_term_taxonomy.taxonomy NOT IN ('link_category')
AND po.post_status IN ('publish', 'future') ) Source: https://stackoverflow.com/

Many thanks, brother. Although I don’t know how comes the wrong number of posts 
in category… But your plugin is saving my wordpress life…

 [alburse](https://profiles.wordpress.org/alburse/) 9 Aprile 2017

The number of posts associated with a category may get mixed up (mine is due to 
the daily import and deletion of the posts with wp all import plugin) and this plugin
can correct this error to the actual number of posts. It also works with custom 
post types. My suggestion would be the addition of wp cron functionality so it can
fix the category counts automatically once in a while to ensure all the categories
are up to date.
