Simple is far too subjective ;’)
From wp-admin/index.php:
$numcomms = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->comments WHERE comment_approved = '1'");
if (0 < $numcomms) $numcomms = number_format($numcomms);
lol, thanx, I should have known that….
EDIT: whoops, I tried that and came to the conclusion that this was not what I ment.
What I mean is total amount of comments on my blog (so not per post…)…and as far (I’m not a widget 😉 ) as I can see, this only calls the nr of comments on a post…
ooops, lol, I’m a bit sleepy I guess. Thanx Yosemite, I should have seen that it already is mentioned in the dashboard file in the admin area. I’ll just do copy/paste!
lol
