Hi @ all, can someone tell me how to get the summary of all items in a category including all subcategories to show it behind the category title in the brackets. in the k2 standard category template is this code

but this value doesn't contain the number of subcategory items.
what can i do to get the catTitleItemCounter + the subCatTitleItemCounter in summary?

best regards
marcus

Hi Marcus,

I think the category template shows the count of all items including those belong to subcategories, catTitleItemCounter and subCatTitleItemCounter are switches used to enable/disable the display of items counter, you can find the in the parameters pane on the right part of the category edit form.

Hi Mohamed, the Category Counter ist not working correctly. But i don't understand why. I send you some examples from this (not published and not finished) site:

---

Arbeitsgruppen:
the counter behind the title shows "0"
invitrojobs.kommzept.de/index.php/de/forschung-methoden/arbeitsgruppen
but there are subcategories with many items.

---

Subcategory Krankheitsforschung
in the subcategory overview (on the page Arbeitsgruppen above) the counter shows 11 items included
but when i click in the subcategory it shows 29 items
invitrojobs.kommzept.de/index.php/de/forschung-methoden/arbeitsgruppen/itemlist/category/87-krankheitsforschung

---

the same with the other subcategories: Tissue Engineering in the overview it counts 45 items and on the page its shows 83 items
invitrojobs.kommzept.de/index.php/de/forschung-methoden/arbeitsgruppen/itemlist/category/86-tissue-engineering

---

and so on ...

i can't explain this behavior. can someone of you?

Hello Marcus,

Are you using catalog mode for any of these views?
If items from child categories are shown then the counter should include all items within that list.

Eg. the 2nd and 3rd link display correctly 29 and 83 items respectively.
