XF 2.2 Statistics widget. Exclude thread count from message count

[crazykgb]

Hello, I’m looking for some pointers on how to exclude the number of threads from the number of messages in the forum stats widget. Would like to have a pure number of replies displayed, instead of combined with threads. Thank you.

Edit the widget_forum_statistics template:

Replace this:

<dd>{$forumStatistics.messages|number}</dd>

With this:

<dd>{{ number($forumStatistics.messages-$forumStatistics.threads) }}</dd>

Worked like a charm. Thank you.

@Brogan, any pointers on how to do the same for this block on the Members page? Thank you.

Those values are defined in code so can't be overridden with a template edit.

Thank you.

One additional question. I would like to display the number of media comments in the forum stats widget.

This is not really working. It's displaying zero

        <xf:if is="is_addon_active('XFMG')">
                    <dl class="pairs pairs--justified">
                        <dt>{{ phrase('xfmg_comments') }}</dt>
                        <dd>{$galleryStatistics.comment_count|number}</dd>
                    </dl>
                   </xf:if>

What do I need to adjust?

I doubt that var is available to the widget.

 

[crazykgb]

Thank you. Appreciate your help.

Is there a place I can read about making this var available for the stats widget, or it's too complicated?

 

[Paul B]

It depends.

This guide explains how to pass vars so they can be used globally: https://xenforo.com/community/resou...nd-widgets.8041/updates#resource-update-37730

I guess I have to modify this same template to do the following:

I would like two or three specific nodes to be excluded from the total topic count. How could I do it?
