[help] TotalPosts and TotalThreads

[LibHost]

Hello,

I've been having a little trouble with a script i've been developing for vBulletin. It's nearly done, but I thought I done one part correct, but it seems I did not. I need to get the PostCount and ThreadCount of the forum, I thought the following code worked:

PHP Code:

$totalthreads = 0;
$totalposts = 0;
if (is_array($vbulletin->forumcache))
{
    foreach ($vbulletin->forumcache AS $forum)
    {
        $totalthreads += $forum['threadcount'];
        $totalposts += $forum['replycount'];
    }
} 


But after testing, it seems the above method does not work at all... I just always get 0 on both and I have no idea why, i've seen it work on the index page, and as far as I can tell there is nothing else I can find.

If anyone knows of any way to get the forum post count, please let me know This has been bugging me for a few days now.

Thanks!
Richard

You could always resort to SQL Queries...

Also, what's the hook location?
