CMS: How to display number of articles next to each section

[PhilG]

Hi Guys,

Im want to display the number or articles next to each section in the section widget (template: vbcms_widget_sectionnavext_page). There are no hooks and the variable is not available.

Here is what i have already:
119162

This is what I want (I just changed the HTML - ie faked it)
119163

This is the admin area showing that it is possible
119164

The predefined widget php is located at /packages/vbcms/widget/sectionnavext.php.. there is also this file sectionnav.php..
I want to ask the experts here, how would you do it?

As far as I can tell, that deals with the number of articles displayed, not the numerical number being displayed in the widget the OP seems to be asking for? Is there a way to display the number of each articles next to the section in the section widget? :confused:
