How To Dynamically Update The Number In Counter?

shrab · November 2015

Hi Muffies,

My question, is it possible to use a short code to update the number required in the 'Counter Settings' for Counter?

I would like to use a Counter to show the total number of posts I have on my website, if you can advise on both the short code and (if at all possible) how to generate a total number of post on my website.

And just to push it that little bit further...... can the total number of posts be filtered using taxonomies or tags?

Thank you all in advance

PS As always I have to say both the BeTheme and the support is outstanding

Hi,

what you ask for is impossible. This requires a lot of customization and to be honest is not easy and time-consuming.

Thanks!

( But surely (speaking as a novice) all that is required is a function linked to the place where the input (from me) is held and made dynamic?

For example:

Counter_Value_number = This_Feild

This_feild = script(that generates the number of post on site)

I am not a programmer but surely this s not possible? I know that there are other bits or programs that are used to update other data, I think they are called variables?

sorry if this sounds a bit rude but I can't understand why it's impossible or time consuming, in fact I bet it's less time consuming than logging in every night to update the counter lol.

Thank you for your support.

You probably did not understood us. It's not possible with current options and theme possibilities. But if you know coding, then everything is possible of course. However, if you will read Item Support Policy, you will understand that theme files customization are not included. So if you want to modify anything, you should contact with your website developer because after any customization, your developer would be responsible for your site.

Thanks for understanding!
