I want to display the total child post count on the parent page.

I have a custom post type named 'Activities' and I have one more custom post type named 'Reviews'
The Reviews post type is a child of Activities.

I want to display the child post count on each parent page.

For example:

Parent: versteckter Link

Child 1: versteckter Link
Child 2: versteckter Link
Child 3: versteckter Link

The parent has 3 child posts.

On the parent page, I want to display the count i.e. 3.

Kindly help.

Dear Prasad,

You can create a view to list child "review" posts:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/querying-and-displaying-child-posts/

And display only the shortcode [wpv-found-count]:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views-shortcodes/

Then put above view into the single parent "Activities" post for displaying the child post count

Hi Luo,

I followed the steps you gave.

After I add the view on the parent page layout, the count is displayed thrice. Please check the link: versteckter Link

I want the count to be displayed only once.

Kindly help.

You just need to put the shortcode [wpv-found-count] outsider the <wpv-loop>, for example:

[wpv-layout-start]
	[wpv-items-found][wpv-found-count]<!-- Put it here -->
	<!-- wpv-loop-start -->
		<wpv-loop>
		</wpv-loop>
	<!-- wpv-loop-end -->
	[/wpv-items-found]
	[wpv-no-items-found]
		<strong>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]No items found[/wpml-string]</strong>
	[/wpv-no-items-found]
[wpv-layout-end]

Then it will be able to display only once.
