Description and Message
hi,

I want to create a block on the right side, which will show the topic and then the amount of topics. Everything that I managed to do is this, but does not work.

index.php

Code: Select all

$forum_id = 4;
    $sql = 'SELECT COUNT(topic_id) AS topic_count
        FROM ' . TOPICS_TABLE . '
        WHERE forum_id = 4';
 $result = $db->sql_query($sql);
$topic_count= (int) $db->sql_fetchfield('topic_count');
$db->sql_freeresult($result); 

Code: Select all

$template->assign_vars(array(
    'TOPIC_COUNT'    => $topic_count,
)); 
block on the right side

Code: Select all

{TOPIC_COUNT}
