• hi !
    on my page template, i show on the side bar the archive menu and list of categories menu.
    I’d like to show in each of the 2 menus the post count. something like this (in bold) :
    archives
    september (12)
    august (18)

    categories
    fast cars (11)
    big trucks (13)

    you see what I mean ? any clue how to do that ?
    Thanks !

  • Why not use the default Archive & Category widgets? They both have the option to show post counts.

    Thanks Media X.
    ok, you can call me stupid lol
    I did not see that option.

    However, there is something missing.
    the post count shows only when i am on a page that is not a menu page.
    if I am on a header menu page like “home” or “contact”, the post count doesnt show 🙁

    do you have any idea why ?

    Can you post the URL of the page where you don’t see the post count?

    ok, i tried to load the website on the ipad and it shows well.
    so i think it’s fine.
    it must be the browser that was loading the page stored in the cache or something like that.
    do u know how to prevent that ?
    because after changing the theme (just to see), after refreshing the homepage, the website was still loading with the previous theme.
    that is not exactly WP related, it is more a firefox thing i know, but if anyone had an answer that would be great !

    Are you using a caching plugin?

    there you go! I had the following plugin activated : WP super cache.
    I don’t know well how to use it obviously.
    I thought the issue came from firefox caching feature.
    I am wondering now if it really is a good thing to have that plugin activated, because I don’t want the readers of my blog to miss any updates I come with because of this plugin.

    thanks media x !
