Download count: Adding a comma separator to thousands, millions, etc.

Is it possible to display files with more than 999 downloads with comma separators in their download counts—ie. as “1,001” instead of “1001”?

You could pass it through number_format() function, e.g.

<txp:etc_query data="{?downloads|0|number_format}" globals="thisfile" />

or rah_function, or raw <txp:php />.

Edit: or more robust

<txp:etc_query data='{?|<txp:file_download_downloads />|number_format}' />

Using rah_function you could use number_format to format the value. Something along the lines of:

<txp:rah_function call="number_format" number='<txp:file_download_downloads />' decimals="0" decimal_point="." thousands_separator="," />

Thank you, friends! I’ll work on this again Wednesday and I’ll report back if anything goes amiss. But I anticipate this will solve the problem with grace. Cheers!
