Comment approval count block
Last modified: July 10, 2007 - 11:50
Displays a count of the comments waiting to be approved to the super-admin user, as well as a link to the comment approval queue.
<?php
global $user;
if ($user->uid == 1) {
$sql = 'SELECT c.nid, c.cid, c.timestamp, c.status, c.name, c.homepage FROM {comments} c WHERE c.status = 1';
$result = db_query($sql);
$num_comments = db_num_rows($result);
return "<div align='center'>
<p>There are <strong>$num_comments</strong> comment(s) waiting to be
<a href='/admin/comment/list/approval'>approved</a></p></div>";
}
?>quicker way might be this:
<?php
$comment_count = db_result(db_query("SELECT count(*) FROM comments WHERE status=1"));
?>In Drupal 5.x the link for the approval queue should be <a href='/admin/comment/list/approval'>approved</a>.
Limiting by role:
This will allow you to limit access to the block by role in 4.7 rather than just limiting it to user 1.
<?php
global $user;
$output = '';
$approved_roles = array('admin', 'role2', 'role3');
if (is_array($user->roles)) {
if (count(array_intersect($user->roles, $approved_roles)) > 0) {
$sql = 'SELECT c.nid, c.cid, c.timestamp, c.status, c.name, c.homepage FROM {comments} c WHERE c.status = 1';
$result = db_query($sql);
$num_comments = db_num_rows($result);
$output .= "<div align='center'>
<p>There are <strong>$num_comments</strong> comment(s) waiting to be
<a href='/admin/comment/list/approval'>approved</a></p></div>";
'content goes here';
}
}
return $output;
?>In Drupal 5.x you can simply select role access when creating the block in the block configuration.
