Another issue arose with the wpforo_visits table.  It looks like a bunch of entries have been deleted.  An additional "guest" entry was added to the visits table & exported the table to a csv file.  The id entries went up to 344.  I just looked at the table to see if we had any additional guest access & the ids are listed as 341, 353, 354,...  What happened to the intermediary entries (342-352)?  How would they get deleted? 

Also, I've noticed that the number of entries in this table varies.  I browse for 25 entries, but don't always get 25 entries (as is evidenced by the attached screenshot).  I searched on a specific id that seems should be accessible (I searched for id=340) & it doesn't exist.  Is there a deprecation mechanism in place to delete entries?  If so, is there a way to configure this value?

Thank you, again!

wpforo_visits tracks current visitors to any given forum or topic.

 

This means it's a dynamic table - rows get added and deleted according to how many visitors are visiting your forum - if there were no users visiting the forum the table would have zero rows, theoretically.

 

It's described as an upcoming feature here:
