Hello,

I have an idea, about a XOOPS SiteContent Block... ;)
But i dont know exactly how can I do that. :) Here is the Block :

-----------------------------------------
..:: DownLoads - Number - ::..
..:: Photos - Number - ::..
..:: Games - Number - ::..
..:: WebLinks - Number - ::..
..:: News - Number - ::..
-----------------------------------------


I can create a block, but i thinking how can i make a Numbering.. and with what must i change "number" to be updated when new File is uplouded or Games,photos,news.... I Belive you understand me.. :)

Thank You.

I'm not sure I can give you an answer to your problem, but perhaps I can help get a little more clarification on what it is you are trying to accomplish.

If I'm reading your post correctly, It appears that you're wanting to show the total number of DownLoads, Photos, Games, WebLinks, and News articles on your site in a custom block

Is this correct?

Best Regards,

James

GIJOE has made extensible waiting block module. Here

It has many plugins for well-known modules available.

To answer your question, this is actually pretty easy if you have an understanding of the tables that support a particular module you want to show. I have done this in my latest XoopStats public module release. And, it can be seen here in the Miscellaneous Stats section.

Here is some code to get you going - for example:

Let's say you are using mylinks module and you want to count out the number of categories and active links. You would do this:

// check if it's active
if ( $xoopsDB->getRowsNum( $xoopsDB->queryF("select * from ".$xoopsDB->prefix("modules")." where dirname='mylinks' AND isactive='1'" ) ) > 0 )
{
// count how many links are active
  $links = $xoopsDB->getRowsNum($xoopsDB->queryF("select * from ".$xoopsDB->prefix("mylinks_links") ) );

// count how many categories  
  $cat = $xoopsDB->getRowsNum($xoopsDB->queryF("select * from ".$xoopsDB->prefix("mylinks_cat") ) );
}


What's missing is your smarty vars or whatever you want to use to display. The main thing is, look at the tables associated with a given module you want to count. Understand what the tables are doing, and then query to your hearts content. You can then display anything about them you want.

Good Luck!
