Dear all

I need your help ... please, i want a way to get count of pages in a specific template

ex: i need to know how many pages displayed in them the news titles or a gallery of pictures if each page carries 5 items

also i need to know how to specify in which page am i ??

Thanks in advance

Do the same fetch-operation as you did to fetch the news or galleryitems, but use list_count or tree_count instead of list or tree.

If you have the number of items, divide it by 5 and than you can see how many pages there are.

Like this:

{ceil(div($treecount, 5))}

Hope this helps,

Tom
