   Hello!

   I'd like to get a post count on tags and categories once I open the archive page, next to the tag or category name.

   You can see an example of what i mean here:

   http://www.elblogalternativo.com/author/angel-de-la-guarda/
   (Los artículos de Angel de la Guarda (154):)

   I managed to get the category and tag name (single_cat_title and single_tag_title), but i've not found a tread dealing with this issue.

   Many thanks in advance!

   Erik.

   Might be more than you need but try this in your archive.php:

   <?php
   $term_id='';
     if ( is_tag() ) {
       $term_id = get_query_var('tag_id');
       $taxonomy = 'post_tag';
       $title = 'Tag: ';
     }
     if ( is_category() ) {
       $term_id = get_query_var('cat');
       $taxonomy = 'category';
       $title = 'Category: ';
     }
   if ($term_id) {
     $args ='include=' . $term_id;
     $terms = get_terms( $taxonomy, $args );
     if ($terms) {
       foreach($terms as $term) {
         if ($term->count > 0) {
           echo '<p>' . $title . '<a href="' . get_term_link( $term->term_id, $taxonomy ) . '" title="' . sprintf( __( "View all posts in %s" ), $term->name ) . '" ' . '>' . $term->name.'</a> has ' . $term->count . ' post(s). </p> ';
         }
       }
     }
   }
   ?>

   MichaelH, it works perfectly!

   I spent like 3 hours last week looking into the forums for a solution like this one and I found several other people with the same issue and no answer, you might wanna consider publishing it into the codex or something, it works fantastic!

   Many thanks,

   Erik.

   Eric - can you recommend a place in Codex to put that? Thanks.
