I recently installed the MarketPlace mod and have it working okay. I noticed that the Points and Posts numbers are not formatted to include the "," to seperate the thousands from the hundreds. I know this is probably a setting in the sql database field that the points and posts numbers are stored in, but I cannot find out what I should change to fix the formatting.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.
TIA

You use the php function number_format. If your number was 5678341


number_format(5678341);


would return 5,678,341 just replace the actual number with your variable or string.

How would I format the numbers for this block code?

<?php


if (eregi("block-Total_Hits.php", $PHP_SELF)) {
Header("Location: index.php");
die();
}

global $nukeurl, $prefix, $startdate;
$result = mysql_query("SELECT count FROM ".$prefix."_counter WHERE type='total' AND var='hits'");
$result = mysql_fetch_row ($result);
$content = '<center><small>'._WERECEIVED.'</small><br> '.$result[0].'<br><small>'._PAGESVIEWS.' '.$startdate.'</small></center>';


?>

<?php
if (eregi("block-Total_Hits.php", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) {
    Header("Location: index.html");
    die();
}

global $nukeurl, $prefix, $startdate, $db;
$result = $db->sql_query("select count from ".$prefix."_counter order by type desc");
    list($total_hits) = $db->sql_fetchrow($result);
$total_hits = number_format($total_hits);
$content = "<font class=\"tiny\"><center>"._WERECEIVED."<br><b><a href=\"stats.html\">$total_hits</a></b><br>"._PAGESVIEWS." $startdate</center></font>";
?>

I get the error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING

Do I have to change $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] to something? I am very new at php coding (I am reading php for dummies now trying to learn basics)

Thanks for the help!

Try it now. I don't see anywhere that would cause the error but I changed the sql query none the less. Also make sure there no spaces after the closing ?> if your using a text editor that can happen quite frequently.

I am still getting the same error. Here is the whole phpnuke block (there is no space at the end, I am using bbedit as my text editor):
