[Solved] Shows the number of articles in a category menu

Hello,

I have a menu, that shows categories of article. I would like to show the number of articles next to each menu link.
When I look in the option of the menu link. I have two tab, that contains
"Montrer le nombre d'item"
I set,in both cases, the option to "show" but it does not work...

So is it a bug or there is another option somewhere to set that?

Hello

the parameter is for component area not for the menu module,

so inside component are you will sub-categories (if enabled) with item counting, or peer-categories (if enabled) with item counting


the menu is created by your MENU module, e.g. Joomla built-in module

Hello,
I try to set the "Montrer le nombre d'item" everywhere I could find it.

In the general configuration of flexicontent, in the menu link configuration, in the concerned categories. The number of items does not appear!

Because I used multiple category assignement from Flexicontent, for my menu link, I have to use the "category type" from flexicontent. Just to be clear, here a print from which option I'm talking:



For exemple here I have 2 tab:
Parameter: sub category level 1
and
Parameter: peer category (same level)

In both of them, I have an otpion, shows the number of item, but it does nothing.
I want the number of items appears next to each menu link of this type.

The only thing I have is a listing of sub-category on the top of the page where there is the number of items next to it.
So, where can I set that?

Hello

1. !! ?? but i have answered you above, and you ask the same thing ??:[/list]
"How to show item count next to menu item links"
-- please take time to read my answer




2. the parameters are for component they are not for the menu module !![/list]

-- we have no control over the menu module that displays the menu links

-- THE MENU LINKS are create by your menu module, AND NOT by FLEXIcontent !!


3.

The only thing I have is a listing of sub-category on the top of the page where there is the number of items next to it.

Exactly that is what the parameter does



4. What you ask is possible only by a developer that will make a Joomla template override for the menu module HTML template file.

But the item counting is expensive (DESPITE that in FLEXIcontent, it is very optimized e.g. 5 times faster than Joomla, and it considers more options like ACCESS,

but still it is expensive, and doing it for all menu items in a web-site will be costly, unless it employs caching

Ok, thanks, yes I didn't understand your first answer, sorry. I thought you were speaking about an option, somewhere.

But now it is clear! Thanks for your answer.

think to edit you first title post to add [solved]
