Hi,
Most everything with the CGfeedback module works great, i have it working with the CGBlog The only problem is I cant seem to get it to count the number of comments. There are a lot of great posts about this already but Ive tried everything and nothing helps, so maybe it something specific to the new version, im using 1.9.4.1 faanui

i created a ratings template called count which looks like this:

{strip}
{$stats.count}
{/strip}

And wrote in the CGBlog summary template:

<a class="comments" href="{$entry->detail_url}#comments">Kommentare ({CGFeedback key1="CGBlog" key2=$entry->id action="ratings" ratingstemplate="count"})</a>

My first feeling was that I have the wrong thing entered into the Key1 spot. Have tried loads of different variation tho...so maybe something else.

thanks so much for any help.

I've got the same problem with my news and CgFeedBack module since last module update

not saying this is the best way to do it, but it works for me (all modules are up to date)

in the CGBlog template I wrote the following

Code: Select all

<a href="{$entry->detail_url}" title="{$entry->title|escape:htmlall}">{capture assign='commentnumber'}{CGFeedback key1="CGBlog" key2=$entry->id action="summary" summarytemplate="reaction-statistics"}{/capture}
{if empty($commentnumber)}
there are 0{else}
there are {$commentnumber}
{/if}
 reactions</a>

the CGFeedback summarytemplate "reaction-statistics" wich I refer to contains the following smarty

Code: Select all

{strip}
{if isset($stats)}
{foreach from=$stats item='onestat'}
{$onestat.reviews} 
{/foreach}
{/if}
{/strip}

ratings and comments are as far as I know the same, so this code should work for you

It's weird but version with $stats.count works if every comment will be manual submited by Admin. I don't know why, maybe this is bug in CGfeedback.

It does not work for me. Also with weird0 method it's always zero.

Is it because I don't use the ratings in the module?
