Get a total count for all comments and display result

2 comments

1. Hi @stubudz:

   You are trying to make things easy on me today, right? 🙂

   Here’s what you need:

   $comment_counts = get_comment_count();
   echo $comment_counts['approved'];
   //print_r($comment_counts); // Uncomment to see all from get_comment_count()

2. <?php
   $numcomms = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->comments WHERE comment_approved = '1'");
   if (0 < $numcomms) $numcomms = number_format($numcomms);
   ?>
   
   
   There are <?php echo $numcomms; ?> in this blog.
