Retrieve Total Result Count with Live-Filter

[mSchwarz698]

Hello,
first of all thank you for this amazing Plugin.
I was looking through the documentation but couldn’t find a way to retrieve the total_result_count. I saw you could use {total_result_count} within the result Infobox, but is there any way to retrieve that information vai a function or so to use when I am using the live search filter in elementor?
I applied the class to the post-widget and I want to display not only the pagination but also how many results are given.

Is this possible? Or do you have any idea how to get that functionality with the live-filter?

Thank you in advance.

Sincerely,

Malte Schwarz

Hi Malte,

I’m afraid this is not possible. This data is passed along only with the regular live search requests, not the elementor query. Even if it was passed, it would be very complicated or near impossible to get it.

Okay, then I’ll try to count them with JS, thanks for the quick and honest reply.

Sincerely,

You are welcome 🙂

Good idea, your solution sounds much simpler than trying to retrieve the count from the xhr request.
