Hello!
How to display number of comments (CGFeedback module) relevant to a page, in a page template?

from the CGFeedback Help:
(optional) pagelimit="10000" - Applicable only to the summary action, this parameter specifies the number of comments to display.

Hmm. This is the LIMIT for the number of comments to display. But I need the EXACT number of comments which are made for a page.
(Sorry for my English
)

(untested, just a guess)

That didn't work for me! How did you include this in the template?
My piece of code in the template is:
Code: Select all
{if $entry->summary}
<div class="CGBlogSummarySummary">
{eval var=$entry->summary}
</div>
{else if $entry->content}
{eval var=$entry->content}<br /><a href="{$entry->detail_url}" title="{$entry->title|escape:htmlall}">[Read Entry]</a> - {$comments|@count}
{/if}
What am I doing wrong??

I've done it in the following way (may be not the optimal but works
)
In my News summary template:
Code: Select all
Number of comments: {CGFeedback key1='News' key2=$entry->id action='summary' summarytemplate='counter'}
And the template called 'counter' is defined in CGFeedback summary templates:

Didn`t work for me too.
I did it the way paulermo said (works)
Perhaps one of the smarty-gurus can help?

I have
{CGFeedback key1="CGBlog" key2=$entry->id action='ratings'}
in the CGBlog summary-template. That returns the # of comments already IIRC...

Hi Ronny, this solution ALMOST worked, but the output is this:
Code: Select all
Number of Comments: 0
Minimum Rating Value:
Maximum Rating Value:
Average Rating Value:
We only wan't "Number of Comments", and therefore paulermo's solution really works, but calls the CGEFeedback twice and we'd like to know if this is necessary.
Cheers guys!

It uses the ratings=template, so you can take a copy of that one in CGFeedback, and remove the things you dont want to see.

Jeo i did that but it still doesnt work for me.
I removed all things i dont need and it always shows "Anzahl der Kommentare 0" (thats german for comments 0
)
Is it important where i input {CGFeedback key1="CGBlog" key2=$entry->id action='ratings'} ?
Or if the site is cached or not?

Tks Ronny, that worked!!
(I didn't see the Ratings template before, sorry)
Nager,
make sure your KEY1 ("CGBlog" or any other name) is the same you are using everywhere you use the Feedback module: {CGFeedback key1=
"CGBlog" key2=$entry->id action='ratings'} - Otherwise it will always say "0 comments"!
PS - ich weiss was "Anzahl der Komentare" heisst!

Finally thanks Ronny & jwaldeck
bad copy and paste. I use the News Modul not CGblog.... Now everything is fine. thanks a lot
Ps: Wenn man jetzt wüste was "Ich nehme alles zurück und behaupte das Gegenteil" auf English heisst.
I think this is solved.
