get_comment_count [ ]

get_comment_count ( $post_id = 0 )
Parameters:
  • (int) $post_id Optional. Comment amount in post if > 0, else total comments blog wide.
Uses:
  • $wpdb
Returns:
  • (array) The amount of spam, approved, awaiting moderation, and total comments.
Defined at:

The amount of comments in a post or total comments.

A lot like {@link wp_count_comments()}, in that they both return comment stats (albeit with different types). The {@link wp_count_comments()} actual caches, but this function does not.

function get_comment_count( $post_id = 0 ) {
	global $wpdb;

	$post_id = (int) $post_id;

	$where = '';
	if ( $post_id > 0 ) {
		$where = $wpdb->prepare("WHERE comment_post_ID = %d", $post_id);
	}

	$totals = (array) $wpdb->get_results("
		SELECT comment_approved, COUNT( * ) AS total
		FROM {$wpdb->comments}
		{$where}
		GROUP BY comment_approved
	", ARRAY_A);

	$comment_count = array(
		"approved"              => 0,
		"awaiting_moderation"   => 0,
		"spam"                  => 0,
		"total_comments"        => 0
	);

	foreach ( $totals as $row ) {
		switch ( $row['comment_approved'] ) {
			case 'spam':
				$comment_count['spam'] = $row['total'];
				$comment_count["total_comments"] += $row['total'];

				$comment_count['total_comments'] += $row['total'];

				$comment_count['awaiting_moderation'] = $row['total'];
				$comment_count['total_comments'] += $row['total'];

	return $comment_count;
