show amount of results for exposed filter

Question

I have a couple of exposed filters to filter the content in my view. Most of them are taxonomy terms, now i would like to show how many nodes are tagged with that term behind the taxonomy term.

example:

London (5)
Paris (3)
Madrid (2)
...

Any idea how i can do this?

Answer 1

Here is some sample code to do this:

function hook_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
    switch($form_id) {
        case 'views_exposed_form':

            $allowed_categories = db_query("SELECT 1 as tid, "Term Name (2)" as `name`")->fetchAllKeyed();
            $allowed_categories = array_reverse($allowed_categories, TRUE);
            $allowed_categories['All'] = '- Any -';
            $allowed_categories = array_reverse($allowed_categories, TRUE);

            $form['field_category_tid']['#options'] = $allowed_categories;

            break;
    }
}

Just change the query to return 2 columns - the tid and the name with a count.

Answer 2

i created a module with a hook_form_alter().

In that function i created a query that counted the nodes attached to a certain taxonomy term and added this number at the end of every term.

Answer 3

function hook_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
  switch($form_id){
    case 'views_exposed_form':
      if ($form_state['view']->name == 'viewname') {
    //must add some bool so this doesn't get into infinite loop
    if(!isset($form_state['view']->gg)){
      $form_state['view']->gg = TRUE;
      $form_state['view']->execute();
    }

    $form['results_count'] = array(
      '#markup' => t('!count results match your criteria', array('!count' => '<b>'.$form_state['view']->total_rows.'</b>')),
      '#weight' => -99,
    );
      }

      break;
  }
}

Couple of links (may be useful)

1. Module Taxonomy Menu, that has count option.
2. Question about these things, but without trusted answer.

Answer 5

This is an example from my real site. field_marka_prochnosti is a field of a node represented by a taxonomy vocabulary. I used phpMyAdmin to learn the name of a table and the name of the field of that table to make a query. bricksale_omega is the name of my theme.

function bricksale_omega_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
switch($form_id){
case 'views_exposed_form':

  foreach ($form['field_marka_prochnosti_tid']['#options'] as $tid => &$value) {
    $query = db_select('field_data_field_marka_prochnosti', 'f')
            ->condition('f.field_marka_prochnosti_tid', $tid);
    $query->addExpression('COUNT(*)');
    $count = $query->execute()->fetchField();
    $value = $value . ' (' . $count . ')';
  }

  break;
  }
}
