Mod Help Please

[MrRundog]

Hi,

I have made a LinkCount function that would bolt onto the cats on the display cats page(index public) but am having trouble finding the function or page that builds the display cats page. Could you point me in the right direction please. LinkCount does what it says - Counts the links in the categories then displays this number next to the category. ie

Lawnmowers (12)
Dwarfs (3)


Cheers

Hi MrRundog.

Add your new variable ( {$num} ) to tpl/view_categories.html
and set it in the index.php
$tpl->assign('num', '$your_number');

Thanks,
Igor.

[COLOR=darkred]Thanks Igor - That was a good starting point - But I had to go edit a whole lot more too!

This mod is now done - Let me know if you want me to post it?

See it in action on my site.

Ok will write it up and post - Would you like to open up a new Category for Mods - I think that would be better than posting in mod help?
