Hello Kyle,
Thanks for your response, i tried the steps and that did resolve the count mismatch, however i tested and found that it also seems to resolve another issue partially. Earlier when a user used to request connection and i clicked on his name in that request it used ro re-direct to that user's own profile instead of the user who requested connection. now this is also resolved however it re-direcst to a different URI with a different Itemid than 607, which makes diplay different.:-
/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&view=userprofile&user=851&tab=1&Itemid=488
Thanks
Pranay
