[SOLVED] User Profile Page "Forums" Tab does not show posts count?

Hi, just curious if the forums tab of the user profile should show a forum "posts" count similar to the Articles post count and Blogs post count? I clearly have forum posts as shown in the list below the menu - is CB supposed to be able to pull the post count from Kunena?

The forums tab can have up to 3 nested tabs. So I otped not to add a counter to it as it'd bring into question what it's counting. It's possible to pull the count using a CB Query Field then substituting that into the forum tab title if you wanted though.

Added a feature ticket to improve the counter usage. Ideally it should just be a substitution so more tabs can use it without it being hardcoded in (e.g. can hide it if you wanted via the tab title string).

Hey Kyle, forgive me for being such a "noob" but I am learning CB as I go (fairly quickly too - check out my ottawa.scionowners.ca site) and I am somewhat new to CB (I've been using Joomla since almost the beginning) and don't completely know my way around it yet.

How do I set up a CB Query field? I'm guessing it will just be pulling that users posts? For example, the default Forums tab shows the posts for the user, just need to add the count beside the tab name.

Actually you don't need a CB Query Field at all. I forgot I implemented a new fieldtype for forum status. Create a new field of the type "Forum Status" then under Parameters > Display set "Status" to "Posts". Now just substitute that field into your tab title. Example as follows to have the badge display.


You may want to use a language key though as that maybe too long and get cut off by CB. Example as follows.

Title: FORUM_WITH_COUNT

Cool! Thanks Kyle, I'll give that a try...

Works like a charm! Thanks again Kyle!
