Re: mdn_count

Well, as far as I remember, it only counts for one section. It wouldn’t be hard to extend it to multiple sections as I’ve done that before in the past to a few plugins of mine. However as I recall this was sort of a quick and dirty single section counter.

Essentially it would do what you want inside a particular section, but if you’re mixing sections on the front page, then the count will be off.

Re: mdn_count

You can use rss_suparchive_bycat to display a list of categories with an article count. It uses the mdn_count plugin to calculate the count.

&nbsp;

You can see the results on my site. The call to the plugin is:

&nbsp;

<txp:rss_suparchive_bycat section="article" linktosection="archive" showcatsonly="1" />

Re: mdn_count

Thank you so much wilshire! It works nicelly.
If you have a category with 0 articles, this plugin doesn’t show the category in the list, is there a way to show it?
Thanks anyway : )

Re: mdn_count

No, if you wanted to show all categories even if they didn’t have posts you could use something like stw_category_tree but then you wouldn’t have the counts.

Re: mdn_count

txp:rss_suparchive_bycat section=“article” linktosection=“archive” showcatsonly=“1” (Wilshire)

Yep – downloaded the plugin…did this and it’s looks fantastic, seems to have worked…except for one thing – it links to an address which is in the format of:

http://www.urlofsite.com/archive/?c=categoryX

But my site is forced to use the ‘Messy’ way of linking and my categories are all found by using this format instead:

http://www.urlofsite.com/index.php?c=categoryX

How can this format be amended in the ‘suparchive’ plugin so that it will work correctly?
…..(I’ve taken a peek at the code but haven’t changed anything yet as I can’t see how to do this).

I hope you can help me with this as it would be a shame to abandon it – many thanks,

Matt

Re: mdn_count

Quick question, possibly a small bug. I am using the plugin to count articles in a category. I often post article in the future so they post a a certain time. So if I publish the article but its not viewable until the specified time comes around the plugin still counts the article. any thoughts..? Thanks
