List tracking error

For some reason my lists aren't adding up when i add new things and it has been making editing their order a difficult process. On one of my lists (Great actors and actresses - IMDb), the supposed number of entries doesn't match up with the actual number. That's not an issue on its own, but on the other one where this also happens (Seen (and want to see) - IMDb) there's an error with the ordering, where positions duplicate and some movies just don't show up on the list. I try to keep my lists as organized as possible, but because of the finnicky listing, it's a hassle to do. Are there any fixes to this or is it just a bug?

@Michelle​ Unfortunately, it seems like it's back. I'm not seeing a disparity between the number of entries shown and actually present, but i'm getting repeating numbers while adding new titles again.

@Jon​ It's back again! I wouldn't get too comfortable when you fix it again lol. Also, there's a new-ish issue with my list of titles, as when i'm editing, the page always displays with one movie short of what's supposed to be there.

@Jon​ @Ozzy @Michelle Nevermind. Upon further review, the whole thing is back, not just a missing title per page. The "1413 titles" text between the refine search options and the actual titles is correct, but the list says there's more than what's actually there.

@Jon​ It's back again (again). Is there something I'm doing wrong on my end? This has happened a ridiculous amount of times.

Hello @LukasSpathis, Thank you for reporting this issue. I've forwarded this information to the appropriate team for further investigation. I'll reply once we receive further information. Unfortunately this is a long-standing bug in the lists system which especially affects large lists. The lists system is now over 13 years old and is some of the oldest remaining software on IMDb. We are actively working upon its replacement as part of the on-going design and technology migration, which will address the issues. In the meantime, as we recently wrote here: If you have access to the IMDb iOS app via an iPhone or iPad, this is best way to manage lists on IMDb. I have hundreds of lists, both private and public, which I manage via our app. The web interface will improve once it moves to the new technology, but right now the iOS app is the gold standard list implementation Hope this helps and sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime. ​
