Thanks! In which file should I insert this code?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the code! I understood that I have to adapt it to my categories. In your example, the last category (9) is between ”, right?
Only one last help: in which file do I insert it?

I tried in a few files, but didn’t work. Eg.: When I’ve inserted the code in the “post-thumb.php” file, didn’t work to the selected categories (thumbnails were still showing) and in the non-selected categories the thumbnail got bigger.

Thanks again for your help and your patience!

None of these worked again 🙁

The hint from Jessn doesn’t work because as I said before, I want to show the sum of a series of children categories. So, if I include my parent category, it will display zero.

From Michael’s code, it only shows exactly like this:
Category
No Category

🙁

Now it’s almost working. It was displaying 0 (zero). So, I’ve noticed that the category itself that I’m using has in fact no posts. However, this is a parent category and what I really want is to show the sum of posts from all of its children categories.

Eg.
TOTAL (parent category)
A (child category with 5 posts)
B (child category with 5 posts)
C (child category with 5 posts)
D (child category with 5 posts)

The category “Total” has zero posts. However, categories A, B, C and D have 5 posts each one. So, I just want to display the sum of posts from categories A, B, C and D.

I know how to display the absolute total of posts from my blog. However, in my categories structure, I have others parents categories (with others children categories within) that I don’t want to sum with these one.

Any idea?

Thanks once again!
