Hello Telli,

I noticed your web links module shows how many links are in each category!
[ Register or login to view links on this board. ]

example: Javascripts (6)

I would like to display this as well, could you help me out?

The easiest way is to select the number of links from each category.


SELECT c.`cid`, c.`title`, c.`cdescription`, (SELECT COUNT(`lid`) FROM `nuke_links_links` WHERE `cid` = c.`cid`) AS numincat FROM `nuke_links_links`

Ok I tried your above code and I still cant seem to get it too work...

This is what I have


$thenum = $db->sql_numrows($db->sql_query("SELECT c.`cid`, c.`title`, c.`cdescription`, (SELECT COUNT(`lid`) FROM `nuke_links_links` WHERE `cid` = c.`cid`) AS thenum FROM `nuke_links_links`"));


Any suggestions?

That query will get all the info for the index page not just the number in each category.


$result = $db->sql_query("SELECT c.`cid`, c.`title`, c.`cdescription`, (SELECT COUNT(`lid`) FROM `nuke_links_links` WHERE `cid` = c.`cid`) AS thenum FROM `nuke_links_links`");
while($row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result)) {
   echo $row['title'] . ' ' . $row['thenum'];
}

Hello Telli,

Thank you for replying.... however I added that code to my standard web links module and it still isnt showing anything....

Maybe I am not being clear enough which I appoligize for

I am tring to accomplish what you have done in your web links section by displaying the number of links listed in each category....

I am using the standard Web Links module and this is my function index ()...

function index() {
    global $prefix, $db;
    include("header.php");
    $mainlink = 0;
    menu($mainlink);
    echo "<br>";
    OpenTable();
    echo "<center><font class=\"title\"><b>"._LINKSMAINCAT."</b></font></center><br>";
    echo "<table border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"10\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"center\"><tr>";
    $result = $db->sql_query("select cid, title, cdescription from ".$prefix."_links_categories where parentid=0 order by title");
    $count = 0;
    while ($row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result)) {
   $cid = intval($row['cid']);
   $title = stripslashes(check_html($row['title'], "nohtml"));
   $cdescription = stripslashes($row['cdescription']);
   echo "<td><font class=\"option\"><strong><big>&middot;</big></strong> <a href=\"modules.php?name=Web_Links&l_op=viewlink&cid=$cid\"><b>$title</b></a></font>";
   categorynewlinkgraphic($cid);
   if ($cdescription) {
       echo "<br><font class=\"content\">$cdescription</font><br>";
   } else {
       echo "<br>";
   }
   $result2 = $db->sql_query("SELECT cid, title from ".$prefix."_links_categories where parentid='$cid' order by title limit 0,3");
   $space = 0;
   while ($row2 = $db->sql_fetchrow($result2)) {
       $cid = intval($row2['cid']);
       $stitle = stripslashes(check_html($row2['title'], "nohtml"));
           if ($space>0) {
      echo ",&nbsp;";
       }
       echo "<font class=\"content\"><a href=\"modules.php?name=Web_Links&l_op=viewlink&cid=$cid\">$stitle</a></font>";
       $space++;
   }
   if ($count<1) {
       echo "</td><td>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>";
       $dum = 1;
   }
   $count++;
   if ($count==2) {
       echo "</td></tr><tr>";
       $count = 0;
       $dum = 0;
   }
    }
    if ($dum == 1) {
   echo "</tr></table>";
    } elseif ($dum == 0) {
   echo "<td></td></tr></table>";
    }
    $result3 = $db->sql_query("SELECT * from ".$prefix."_links_links");
    $numrows = $db->sql_numrows($result3);
    $result4 = $db->sql_query("SELECT * from ".$prefix."_links_categories");
    $catnum = $db->sql_numrows($result4);
    $numrows = intval($numrows);
    $catnum = intval($catnum);
    echo "<br><br><center><font class=\"content\">"._THEREARE." <b>$numrows</b> "._LINKS." "._AND." <b>$catnum</b> "._CATEGORIES." "._INDB."</font></center>";
    CloseTable();
    include("footer.php");
}


I hope this helps as I have tried everything...

Hello Telli,

Ok I repleaced my entire function index(); with the one you modified for me and it still a no go...

Now there are no categories displaying or anything....???

So when I looked at your code I can easily see the c.title instead of title so for giggles I tried removing the c.'title' and the rest that had c. in front of them and then the categories re-appear but the num count still dont work...

If it has c.title or c.cid it dont work at all

Any ideas?

Try grabbing the above code again. I made a couple changes.
