Hello,

is there a possibility to show comment count next to the title on the front page and on category and section layouts?
It should be shown like this: Article title (comment count, if there are more than zero comments)
I use JComments commenting system. There’s a guide on how to do it here: http://www.joomlatune.com/jcomments-developers-manual.html#jcomments_get_comments_count
But it doesn’t seem to work in JA Teline III. I would be really grateful if anyone could at least point me to the right direction.

Thanks in advance,

Mindaugas

I’ve figured this one out. It seems that the suggested function couldn’t get the article id.
Here’s how I made it work:


<?php $id = JRequest::getVar('id'); ?>
<?php $comments = JPATH_BASE .DS.'components'.DS.'com_jcomments'.DS.'jcomments.php';
if (file_exists($comments)) {
require_once($comments);
$count = JComments::getCommentsCount($id, 'com_content');
echo "($count)";
}
?>

Hi Mindaugas,

We do not support this feature, because there is no way to place a comment quantity next to the article title
(joomla is not allowed add any html tags or script to article’ title).

Best regards,

But I’ve added the code that I’ve posted above and it seems to work. Am I missing something?

And for the category or section view I use this function:

<?php $comments = JPATH_BASE .DS.'components'.DS.'com_jcomments'.DS.'jcomments.php';
if (file_exists($comments)) {
require_once($comments);
$count = JComments::getCommentsCount($this->item->id, 'com_content');
echo $count ? ('('. $count . ')') : '';
}
?>
