In this tutorial, we will display the count of attached media files like images corresponding to a post type.<\/p>\n

So, we will create a shortcode to display the media count. We need to make a wp query<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can read our article about the WP Query shortcode.<\/a><\/p>\n

Bill Erickson offers us the whole list of arguments we can make in our WP Query (Arguments)<\/a><\/p>\n

Knowing the name parameter of your post type, you will, therefore, set up this shortcode.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

Shortcode to display the count of the attached files - Post Type<\/h2>
add_shortcode( 'addocountattachementsposttype', 'addo_count_attachementsposttype' );\nfunction addo_count_attachementsposttype(){\t\n\tglobal $post;\n    \/\/Get all attachments\n    $attachments = get_posts( array(\n        'post_type' => 'attachment',\n        'posts_per_page' => -1\n    ) );\n\n    $att_count = 0;\n    if ( $attachments ) {\n        foreach ( $attachments as $attachment ) {\n            \/\/ Check for the post type based on inpidual attachment's parent\n            if ( 'crasyphotosgalleries' == get_post_type($attachment->post_parent) ) {\n                $att_count = $att_count + 1;\n            }\n        }\n        echo $att_count;\n    }\n}\n<\/pre><\/div>
\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t
Then, replace crasyphotosgalleries<\/em> with the name of your post type.<\/p>\n
Here in our example (addocountattachmentsposttype) you can change the name of your WordPress shortcode.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
