In this tutorial, we will create a few lines of code that will allow you to display the number of images attached to a Post ID with the help of a WordPress query.<\/p>\n

First, in our query, we will need the $attachments<\/strong> variable which contains get_children<\/a> of all images linked to Post or Post Type. And then we create a new $count<\/strong> variable that will count the images.<\/p>\n

With a foreach, we will display Post ID’s number of images as long as the query will find Post Ids.<\/p>\n

Here’s the code to use with your Post or Post Type query.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

global $post;\n$attachments = get_children ( \n   array( \n   'post_parent'      => $post->post_parent, \n   'post_status'      => 'inherit', \n   'post_type'        => 'attachment', \n   'post_mime_type'   => 'image', \n   'order'            => 'ASC', \n   'orderby'          => 'menu_order ID' ) \n);\n \n$count = count( $attachments );\n$specific = array();\n$i = 1;\n \nforeach ( $attachments as $attachment ) {\n    $specific[$attachment->ID] = $i;\n    ++$i;\n}<\/pre><\/div>\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t
We display the results of the loop the number of images attached to the selected Post ID:<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
