great little plugin. i have a 2 questions i want to ask before i go screwing up the php file.
1. changing the number of recent posts and comments listed
2. You had said that “guests” is actually users who have registered. how do i change “guests” to something that would reflect that, like “registered Users”?
Perishable – May 23, 2007 •
billy,
not sure if i am understanding the first question.. the number of posts/comments is generated from database statistics. changing the number of either requires altering the actual number of posts/comments in the database itself (e.g., by adding/deleting posts).
the second question is easy. open the file and go to line #114. change the word "guests" to whatever you prefer. no additional editing should be necessary.

Hello,
thanks for this great plugin Perishable ;)
I translate this in French: [Edit: getting 404 for original page link — see download section of the article above for the translated version]
It is also available on the official French WordPress site.

Very nice! Thank you for your help. The translation is excellent. Keep up the good work!

Finally I have found a great plugin to show a the stats about my blog – thank you.
I like the way I can list posts and pages separately, but it seems to miss out a whole load of sub pages. Any ideas??
Perishable – June 18, 2007 •
Yes, open the plugin file, find the function called
function pagestats(), and replace this line:$numpages = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status = 'static'");with this one:
$numpages = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE (post_status = 'static') AND (post_parent >= '0')");That should do the trick. Let us know how it goes..
Christopher – June 18, 2007 •
Thanks for the amended code, unfortunately no change. Still showing 6 pages.
If I change it to
(post_parent >= '1')it then says 2 pages.At the moment your plugin is reporting:
59 posts and 6 pages in 11 categories with 56 comments
While the WP Dashboard reports:
There are currently 43 posts and 56 comments, contained within 11 categories.
Probably should have said I am using WP2.1
Thanks for your help.
Perishable – June 18, 2007 •
I don’t have WordPress 2.1 running for this site (yet), but I may have an opportunity later tonight or tomorrow to investigate the situation on a different domain. It should be just a matter of culling the desired page data from the correct database tables, which indeed may have been changed in WP2.1. I’ll see what I can do.. stay tuned..

Hi,
Great plug-in! However, I’m using the “poststats” function and it’s returning the number of all my posts AND my pages.
Your plug-in stats: 57 posts, 0 pages
WordPress dashboard: 50 posts
I have 1 post that’s marked private and 1 page marked private, for a total of 51 posts and 8 pages.
Any clue why this may be happening?
Thanks in advance!
J.M. Snyder
