PHP Code:

$numbersmembers=$DB_site->query_first('SELECT MAX(userid) AS max FROM user');

^^^^ That gives me users = 0 ..

After adding the line, you should use this variable in your templates:
$numbersmembers['max']

[CRego3D]

tried it .. still showed "0"

If you add the line:

PHP Code:

$numbersmembers=$DB_site->query_first('SELECT MAX(userid) AS max FROM user'); 


to your index.php and add

PHP Code:

$numbersmembers['max'] 


to your forumhome template, it should work.. I tested it and it's working here..

Sure, why not:

Leave the original code as it is and add these 2 lines after them:

$count_maxx_posts=$DB_site->query_first('SELECT postid AS posts FROM post ORDER BY postid DESC LIMIT 1' );

$count_maxx_threads=$DB_site->query_first('SELECT threadid AS threads FROM thread ORDER BY threadid DESC LIMIT 1');

Now you can change your main page template and use these 2 variables $count_maxx_posts and $count_maxx_threads in anywhere or in any way you like..

i get this error on my index.php i use

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING'

VBB 2.2.7

here is what i got in my index.php

// get total posts ever
$count_maxx_posts=$DB_site->query_first('SELECT postid AS posts FROM post ORDER BY postid DESC LIMIT 1' );
$count_maxx_posts=number_format($count_maxx_posts['posts']); 

$count_maxx_threads=$DB_site->query_first('SELECT threadid AS threads FROM thread ORDER BY threadid DESC LIMIT 1');
$count_maxx_posts=number_format($count_maxx_threads['threads']);

I tested your code in vb.2.2.7 and it gave me no errors and successfully give me the numbers when I put them inside the forumhome template. Make sure you use the variables ($count_maxx_threads,$count_maxx_posts) only inside the templates and make sure you dont process these variables in your php script like adding them something etc. like

$count_maxx_threads=$count_maxx_threads+1000;

also make sure you dont get the error because of any other line in your code..

I strongly believe if you use only this code in index.php and $count_maxx_threads and $count_maxx_posts in forumhome template, you will not get ant errors..
