   In the Hemingway Blocks theme you can add blocks to its footer. I would like to change the way the "Categories" block works, if possible.
   Below is the "Category" block

   <h2>Categories</h2>
   <ul class="counts">
   <?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=name&optioncount=1&hierarchical=0'); ?>

   It is set up to show the categories, obviously.
   Would it be possible to show the number of comments listed under that category instead of the number of posts?

   The script in the theme is below

   ?php comments_popup_link('No Items', '1 Item', '% Items'); ?

   Do anyone know how to accomplish this?

   Template_Tags/comments_popup_link
   If you read the Description - it says clearly that it will work only in the Loop. The sidebar is not the Loop.

   So basically you are saying it can't be done.
