Number of threads in a section
 

Hello,

I was wondering whether anyone could tell me what the code is to show the number of threads for a specific section.

Thanks.

What do you mean 'the code'. The variable used is $vbulletin->options['maxthreads']. You can search the files for "maxthreads" and I'm sure you'll find how it's used.

Hey,

I thought maybe there was a 'code' to show how many threads in a specific section.
It's hard to explain but let's say I have a ''Post reports'' section and the amount of threads which are created in that section will show up under Private messages.

So something like this;

Private messages
Post Reports (XX)

XX - The number of threads in that section.

Would you know how to do it? Post reports was an example only.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you are trying to do.... you want the total number of threads for a section? Like what shows up on the index.php page? The code for that is on the bottom of the index.php file.

Hey,

Yes I want the total number of threads for a section, but I'd like to know whether I could put the total number of threads for a section below the private messages bit.

For example;
If the total number of threads are 50 in X section and I want the total number of threads in that section to show below Private messages like this;

Private Messages
Section Name (Number of total threads)

I hope you understand!

Private Messages up in the header? An image always helps to show this stuff.

You can put it up there but you will need to write a plugin to get the total number of threads in that section. The code you will want to add is going to be *based* on what is on the bottom of the index.php page - that way you may use the forumcache and not to a query.
