I’ve done a bunch of digging, but can’t seem to find a similar situation. I’m interested in providing, as a summary item, the count of the number of comments made to a single weblog entry from a multi-listing page. I hope that makes sense.

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="articles" display_by="week" week_sort="desc" show_current_week="yes" start_day="Sunday" limit="3"}
<h3 class="leadArticle">{exp:char_limit total="40"}{title}{/exp:char_limit}</h3>
//would like to show comment count here
{if articleImage ==""}{articleSummary}<a href="http://{title_permalink=test/ArticlePage}">...more</a>{if:else}
{articleImgThumb}
{articleSummary}<a href="http://{title_permalink=test/ArticlePage}">...more</a>{/if}
{/exp:weblog:entries}

Found this here but it still only displays total_comments for all entries made to a weblog rather then for each entry in a weblog.

Is there a way to achieve this with EE?

{comment_total}?

:wow: Load have mercy! :wow:

I spent about an hour and a half looking for this, obviously in the wrong place.

Thank you very much.

You know I almost didn’t post that because I thought, “this must be more complicated than it seems” =)

I was obviously making more complicated then it seems/or needed to be.

The one place I neglected to reference was weblog tags…I looked at all the comment tags, the Wiki, searched the forums.

The one thing I find a bit frustrating is the fact that thought I may know what I’m ultimately trying to do, my searches seem sporadically successful in revealing the info I’m looking for. This is obviously a result of the parent search - my fault. But, I’m not quite sure how to improve the results I get.

I just searched for “comment total” and the 6th entry down is it.

If you have suggestions on how to ease the search, or some such, then I’d welcome them.  Feel free to post or email me with any you have. =)
