XF 2.2 Change a specific value to use short format

[Russ]

Is there a way to convert a specific value to use the short number format? The forum uses the #k method but it doesn't change the forum stats.

I'm trying to display the message count in the same manner.

{$forumStatistics.messages|number}

Try {$forumStatistics.messages|number_short}

You can also add decimal places using {$forumStatistics.messages|number_short(2)}

Easy enough, that worked! Thank you Brogan.

Just for reference, these are the template filters and functions.
