The item count is only showing the count for the number of nodes tagged with the parent term. It isn't including the nodes tagged with child-terms of the parent term.

Example)
Say there are 3 terms: Fruit, Bananas and Oranges.
The menu for "Fruit" will show the number of nodes tagged with "Fruit" but won't include nodes tagged with "Bananas" or "Oranges".

My Setup)
I have "Display the number of matches after each menu item." selected on /admin/settings/taxonomy_filter/4/edit
I'm using the "base" menu template.
I have "Listing Depth" set to "show all levels" on admin/settings/taxonomy_filter/4/edit

Is this still an issue? What taxonomy filter menus are you using?

It isn't an issue for me because I'm not using Taxonomy Filter in that way. I bet it is still an issue though...

Reassigning issue to 6.x branch -- see http://drupal.org/node/1203140.

Based on the example taxonomy, it would seem the nodes tagged with "Bananas" or "Oranges" should also be tagged as "Fruit." If changed, then the parent term counts would "include" the nodes with the child terms.
