Total number of articles?

Hi, I wonder if itīs possible to show the total number of articles on the published sites index page?
The administration interface shows both the number of records found and the total number.
Kind regards

Hi Ivar,
I've looked into it, and I'm afraid that the total number of records is not available as a global placeholder.
I can see how it would be useful to you though, so I'm going to put it on my list :)

May I suggest some flex to that such as:
Total Articles
Total Cat 1 Articles
Total Cat 2 Articles
and so on...
Just a thought!

Ivar, all AM articles have one thing in common: they all have the same prefix article_
so simply save this simple script into any name.php and place it in your published articles directory and you will have your count.
Use SSI or php include to display it.
<?
print getAllFiles(".");
function getAllFiles ($dir) {
$d = opendir ("$dir");
while ($file = readdir ($d)) {
if (is_dir ($dir."/".$file)) continue;
if ($file == ".." || $file == ".") continue;
if (preg_match('/^article_/', $file)) $count++;
}
closedir ($d);
return $count;
}
?>

Cool solution, Lionel!
Unfortunately I have chosen to give each article a unique file name. 
Thanks anyway!

Solved it! 
I took your PHP script and replaced "article" with "printer". To get it to work in my cgi-bin directory I used IFRAME to show the number of articles on all the pages.
