Any smarty plugin to display pm counter in a template?

Hi guys,

As for now I use this in userinfo.php :

// ======== Private messages counter ============
    $criteria = new CriteriaCompo(new Criteria('read_msg', 0));
    $criteria->add(new Criteria('to_userid', $xoopsUser->getVar('uid')));

    $pm_handler =& xoops_gethandler('privmessage');
    $pm_counter = $pm_handler->getCount($criteria);
    $xoopsTpl->assign( 'pm_counter', $pm_counter );


To render <{pm_counter}> on the profile page. Is there any ready smarty plugin to render the number of pm messages in the theme.html directly?

thanks in advance!

I use the multimenu module in my website and it can show these
look here:

Quote:

You can use {user_id} in your link. It will retrieve the Id of the user seing the page
ex:

userinfo?uid={user_id}

You can also customize the name of the link for display private messages info

In the tab title just add
{pm_new}
{pm_readed}
{pm_total}

ex:

title = Inbox {pm_new}
Link to = viewpmsg.php


but you should implement these smarties from Mytab in userinfo.php yourself.

<{xoInboxCount}> will display the number new PMs for any logged in user. The code in the post that mjoel pointed to has a good example of how to assign the value to a variable ('pmcount' in the example) if you want to get the number and do something with it - for example only print out a message if there are PMs waiting, change the display CSS, etc...

Thanks guys, <{xoInboxCount assign=pmcount}> is really what I was looking for. Th only problem it doesn't update at once when a new message has been read. But that seems okay anyways.
