comments count

Hi,

is there anyway to change the output of count-comments based on the post count. So for example if the comments = 0 the text reads "add a comment".

cheers,

you can achieve this with PHx. If i have the time i will post the tag example.

thanks that would be great

You have to have PHx active as a plugin (PHx 2.0.1 from the repository)

if you use the snippet call that returns the comment count use this:



remember that [+id+] can be any variable that returns the document id for the requested comment count

or if you use placeholder=`1` in your jot call and it’s on the same page as the comment count.

thanks, works a treat

this is my final code with the links to the comments:

[+phx:if=`[!Jot?&docid=`[+id+]`&action=`count-comments`!]`:is=`0`:then=`<a class="count" href="[~[+id+]~]#commentsAnchor">add a comment</a>`:else=`<a class="count" href="[~[+id+]~]#commentsAnchor">Comments ([!Jot?&docid=`[+id+]`&action=`count-comments`!])</a>`+]

is it possible to add another condition to the statement? e.g if=`[!Jot?&docid=`[+id+]`&action=`count-comments`!]`:is=`1`:then=.. i could not work out the syntax.

It is really working ?

The case 0 is not working for me...
The call to Jot snippet really return a number ? not a string ?

EDIT: ok ! I need to make Jot call with [[ and not [!
