<p>This plugin allows you to dynamically return the number of posts in a particular category, tag, or custom taxonomy. Inserting <code>[cat_count value="category-slug"]</code> in a post or page, or <code><?php do_shortcode('cat_count slug="category-slug" '); ?></code> anywhere in WordPress’ code will return the number of posts in that particular category.</p>
<p>Useful for creating dynamic table of contents pages, keeping track of post stats, general bragging, or any place where keeping a running tally might be desirable.</p>

<p>This plugin for bbpress shows any combination of the total topics, replies and total count under the avatar or within the post content on each topic/reply view in bbpress, and allows you to label these as you wish eg “Topics Created : 253″ or “Topics – 253″</p>
<p>You can choose to link the number counts to each user’s profile page (topics, replies, and engagements) or just display the number counts without links.</p>
<p>Additionally 3 shortcodes are included that allow display of the counts of the logged in user<br />
[display-topic-count]<br />
[display-reply-count]<br />
[display-total-count]<br />
[display-top-users]</p>
<p>which can be used on pages</p>
<p>see the settings shortcodes tab for details</p>
<p>Works with bbpress 2.5 onwards</p>


bbP topic count

It's a very simply but important plugin for bbPress forums. :)
Thank you!

Simply and it's working

Very happy. It works perfectly and easily. I like the options for being able to display it however you want, and the thousand separator option. 

I think it would be a great idea if you included the "posts count" or "post count" in your plugin description. Would be easier for bbpress users to find. Right now it only has the words "topic count" and I don't think that's the verbiage many users (like myself) would naturally type in.

Great work!

I am so happy to discover this plugin. The plugin author is kind enough to help me to create a reputation system using this plugin. Its working absolutely fine.

Thanks alot.

Awesome Plugin

For bbPress - adds any combination of topics, replies and totals under the authors avatar in topics and replies
