Creating a counter

[WarriorDL]

Hi. I'm trying to create a counter that reads how many categories and images I have in my gallery.

The vB code for total threads and and posts is like what I want, as the category and image totals will replace the threads and posts totals.

PHP Code:

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


The original coding is from another script:

PHP Code:

$total_images = 0;
$total_categories = 0;

$cache_id = create_cache_id(
  'data.auth_and_info',
  array($user_info[$user_table_fields['user_id']])
);

if (!$data = get_cache_file($cache_id, null)) {
  if (!empty($cat_cache)) {
    foreach ($cat_cache as $key => $val) {
      if (check_permission("auth_viewcat", $key)) {
        $total_categories++;
        if (isset($val['num_images'])) {
          $total_images += $val['num_images'];
        }
        else {
          $cat_cache[$key]['num_images'] = 0;
        }
        $auth_cat_sql['auth_viewcat']['IN'] .= ", ".$key;
      }
      else {
        $auth_cat_sql['auth_viewcat']['NOTIN'] .= ", ".$key;
      }
    }
  }

  $data = array();

  $data['total_images'] = $total_images;
  $data['total_categories'] = $total_categories;
  $data['auth_viewcat']['IN'] = $auth_cat_sql['auth_viewcat']['IN'];
  $data['auth_viewcat']['NOTIN'] = $auth_cat_sql['auth_viewcat']['NOTIN'];

  save_cache_file($cache_id, serialize($data));

} else {
  $data = unserialize($data);

  $total_images = $data['total_images'];
  $total_categories = $data['total_categories'];
  $auth_cat_sql['auth_viewcat']['IN'] = $data['auth_viewcat']['IN'];
  $auth_cat_sql['auth_viewcat']['NOTIN'] = $data['auth_viewcat']['NOTIN'];
} 


It won't work in my non-forum vB generated page.
