How is it possible to display a total counter (added counters from the single threads) in the start-page of vb?

Thanks for your hints!

it already shows total posts in the forum. What else are you wanting?

Martin,

i want to show the summarized views of all threads in the forum page - near by posts/threads/new member ...

Like "This forum has been viewed this # of times"?

So just a total of all views?

Yep - simply this!

;)

now I understand what you're wanting :)

I think it's doable, though I have spent any time thinking about it.

Try adding some code like this to the index.php file at about line 80:

Code:

  $countviews=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT SUM(views) AS views FROM thread");

  $totalviews=$countviews[views];

  if ($totalviews=="") {

    $totalviews=0;

  }

This is not included as standard, since the SQL call is potentially quite server intensive.

John - why not adding a total counter into the database as standard?

I believe he answered that in your quote above?

Nope - i don't believe this ;)

In the table thread is a field called views used, why not adding something like a "global views" in the database, and everytime the field views of any thread is incremented - the "global views" would be incremented too!

If we use "global views" instead of a manual counting in index.php it would'nt be quite server intensive.
