I need to present the total links each subcategories have. This at main.tpl . At the moment we have as manual explains : {CATNUMLINKS} - Number of links in the category plus all its subcategories. {CATLINKSHERE} - Number of links in the category excluding subcategories. but none of them works for my purpose. Is it a way to present the number of links for each subcategory , but at main.tpl ? Do I need to request a {SUBCATNUMLINKS} ?

Additional fields can be supported in the subcategories on main page area using the $subhtmlfields tweak: http://scripts.webmastersite.net/wsnlinks/wsnmanu... In this case, $subhtml = 'numlinks,linkshere';

Thanks, It works, but it need categories to be regenerated to update on new links added. I notice that by sating at tweaks.php : " $dontcachesubcats = true; " , the 'catnumlinks' variable works online. But as you say that by do not cacheing subcats we can have a server risk, so could it be possible to have an online value of 'catnumlinks' on subcats this working with cacheing subcats but without the need for regeneration ? Best Regards,

It was supposed to work. I see it only refreshes the subcats html of the category the link is submitted to, not the levels above. Fixing.

I now see it working perfect. I do have a doubt on how to deal with the hidden links. {CATNUMLINKS} counts the presented and hidden links, I believe this is correct, but I would like a way to count the hidden links in order to deduct them and to show the number of presented but not hidden links, so maybe a {CATNUMHIDDENLINKS} to deduct or a direct {CATNUMNOHIDDENLINKS}. What do you think ?
