How can I create a center block with just two stats?

[ApplianceJunk]

Using SMF 1.1.5 and T.P 0.9.8

I would like have these stats in a center block.

Total Members: 1960 - Total Posts: 5361

I found this code in the TPortalBlocks.template.php file.

Code Select Expand

'.$bullet.$txt[488].': ' , isset($modSettings['memberCount']) ? $modSettings['memberCount'] : $modSettings['totalMembers'] , '

'.$bullet.$txt[489].': '.$modSettings['totalMessages']. '

Thought I could maybe just put that in a php block, but it does not seem to work that way.

I did a quick search, but did not anything that I could work with.

Am I even on the right track?

Thanks,

Place in a php block:

Code Select Expand

$context['num_posts'] = &$modSettings['totalMessages'];
$context['num_members'] = &$modSettings['totalMembers'];

echo $bullet.$txt[488] . ' : ' . $context['num_posts'] . ' - ';
echo $bullet.$txt[489] . ' : ' . $context['num_members'];

Thank you for the reply.

I put the code in a php block and get this.

Total Members : - Total Posts :

There does not seem to be any numbers to go with it.

It currently works in my SMF 1.1.5 / TP 0.9.8 site- click here to see.

Hmm, that just how I would like mine to look.

I turned on the block I have it in so you can see what I'm looking at too.

Just checked my error log and I get these two errors with that code.

Thought maybe it would be a clue.

I'm going to guess it's some other code in my BoardIndex.template.php that is screwing with things?

Edited to add: going to mark this solved as the code I asked for is correct and now I need to look at my theme as to why it's not working.

Thanks,
