Hi Jason,

Can you please share the code for manually calling comment count.

Basically i want to echo the comment count on top of Article (Through my template file).

Hello Sunny,

You can use this code to get the count:


$commentsModel	= Komento::getModel( 'comments' );

$commentCount	= $commentsModel->getCount( $component, $cid ); // $component = com_content , $cid = the article id.


Hope this helps.

Hello Sunny,

You can try this for rating:


$ratings 			= $commentsModel->getOverallRatings($component, $cid);

$totalRating		= $ratings->value;

$totalRatingCount 	= $ratings->total;


Please give it a try.
