Problem:
How can I filter a view by a ShortCode attribute?

Solution:
1. Create a View
2. Choose a Query Filter of your choice and pass the value to filter by as a ShortCode argument
3. When you insert the View, use the GUI "Query Section" to define what value you want to pass to the View's ShortCode argument.

Problem:
How to return a count of posts for each user in loop (Views)

Solution (include the steps to follow here):

function user_posts_count($atts) 
{
 return count_user_posts($atts["user-id"], $atts["post-type"]);
}
add_shortcode( 'user-post-count', 'user_posts_count' );

Register the ShortCode in Views > Settings > Compatibility > 3rd party ShortCodes and then use it in your View listing Users as this:

[user-post-count user-id="[wpv-user field='ID']" post-type="post"]

Above will return the count of Posts a certain (in Loop) user has created.
Change "post" to your post type slug.
