Count all active in Category was created by igcorreia

Hello how can I know the total items active from a category.

I have open cateogry_items.php and the:

Code:

$items	= $this->items;
$count 	= count($items);

gives me the total but of the pagination not the total in the category.

Any ideas?

To get a raw number of total items (no HTML tags, just the number):

either get it from pagination Object

$count = $this->pageNav->total;

or better from the category model:

$count = $this->getTotal();

PLEASE NOTE: this is the total number of items according to current filtering, search box, alpha-index
