   I'd like to list my categories and show how many posts are in there. But: I use this code:

   <?php wp_list_categories('show_count=1&title_li='); ?>

   And the result is:
   * Category name 1 (15)
   * Category name 2 (17)
   * Category name 3 (25)
   * Category name 4 (2)
   * Category name 5 (32)

   I'd like to display it as:
   * Category name 1 (15 posts)

   I have no idea how to put anything after the number which shows the numbers. Anyone have any suggestion? Thx!

   Here's a useful example: wp_list_categories

   One way to do it would be to capture the output of wp_list_categories in a variable and use PHP to replace occurrences of ) in that variable with " posts)" - then output the revised variable.

   something like this should do it
   

   <?php
   $list = wp_list_categories('show_count=1&title_li=&echo=0');
   $list = str_replace( ")", " posts)", $list );
   echo $list
   ?>
