Category Post Count in Menu??

Any ideas?

Surely someone can help me out?!!? please?

I’m looking for the same thing. Any one got any ideas? Please let me know if you’ve found a solution too Erve.

Glad I’m not the only one darrensa…!

Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find a solution. I came close with a few .php function “hack” solutions, but everything I tried to get the function’s call code into the custom menu failed. I’m sure that someone with good .php knowledge could get it right, but it would mean some serious fiddling in the editor.

The only help I’ve had from any forums has been to tell me that it’s not possible without completely coding my own custom menu from scratch. I don’t think this is true, I’m sure it can be done, but I don’t really have the know-how to do it myself.

It is really frustrating that the categories widget can do it at the tick of a box, but the categories menu options can’t! I’ve tried finding out what code the categories widget uses to achieve it, but can’t for the life of me work it out. And even then, I’m not sure how I would get the .php call code into the custom menu……

Sorry I couldn’t be of more help! If you manage to find a solution, please do let me know!
