Hello,

There is a simple function, you need only to pass board id which message coming from.

CMS.MessageBoards.BoardMessageInfoProvider.GetMessagesCount(boardId,true,true)

Thanks for your reply.

I'm new to Kentico, this might be a silly question. Where to find board ID and it seems integer value. How to include this in ASCX transformation (For ex:

count:<%#your_syntax_to_get_approved_message_count%>

Thanks

Hi,

You can find it in Board_Board database table.

Syntax in transformation:

<%# CMS.MessageBoards.BoardMessageInfoProvider.GetMessagesCount(boardId,true,true) %>
