Love this guestbook. Its been very easy to work with and modify.

I have a request from a client that wants to add a field that each time someone signs his guestbook he wants a number assigned to it to show how many comments has been made.

Can anyone help?

Hello Koxley,

To display the total number of entries you can change this code (starting at line 123 in GBook version 1.34):

Code: Select all

else {
$total = count($lines);
	if ($end > $total) {$end=$total;}
$pages = ceil($total/10);
echo '<p>Displaying page '.$page.' of '.$pages.'. Pages: ';
	for ($i=1; $i<=$pages; $i++) {
		if($i == $page) {echo "<b>$i</b>\n";}
        else {echo '<a href="gbook.php?page='.$i.'">'.$i.'</a> ';}
	}
}

To this code:

Code: Select all

else {
$total = count($lines);
	if ($end > $total) {$end=$total;}
$pages = ceil($total/10);
echo '<p>Displaying page '.$page.' of '.$pages.'. Pages: ';
	for ($i=1; $i<=$pages; $i++) {
		if($i == $page) {echo "<b>$i</b>\n";}
        else {echo '<a href="gbook.php?page='.$i.'">'.$i.'</a> ';}
	}
echo '<br>Total number of entries is '.$total.'.';
}

I added this line
echo '<br>Total number of entries is '.$total.'.';
which shows the number of entries just below the line in which the numbers of pages is displayed.

The variable $total shows the number of entries in the entries.txt file.

Greetings,
Henrie

Thank you for doing this. I upgraded to 1.41 and it still worked.
Thanks!
