So, I entered in a few test articles, saw that the panel on the side said I had 3 articles in the submission queue and went in to check them out.  I deleted 3 articles without approving or activating them.  However, that panel still says there are 3 articles awaiting submission.  But when I click on it, there is nothing there.

Any ideas?

You have to go into the smf_tp_articles table in your database and delete the rows for those articles that you are speaking of. Make a backup before you do any changes.

Alright, thanks.  I'll try that.  Is this something that will happen every time I delete an unapproved article then?

Edit: Unfortunately, that didn't work.  I deleted the extra rows for the articles and now my database only shows the 3 articles I currently want to keep.  But the queue still says there 7 articles in it.

I'm new to databases and smf.  Is there some kind of wait time before it takes effect?

Gossamer,

Just a guess here since Ichbin knows more about this than I do but try clearing your browser cache, closing the site tab, and then opening it again and see if that clears it.

To be honest I didn't know what I had done at the time. And the fact that you saw your problem right away made me think it was the same problem. It could still be, I just don't remember every detail of what I looked at when I fixed this problem. It could very well be that this is a bug. I'll have to test when I get a chance.
