Hello, Holger,

Last year I had asked in THIS post about changing the delimiter (thousands separator) from a "." (dot) to a "," (comma), and you replied with the code for me to change in order to accomplish that.  Thank you again, it worked great.

With your new v25, we can set the separator ourselves now, thank you.

I am inquiring at this time what file/code I would need to modify, in order to change the delimiter (thousands separator) for the counter.php file, from a dot to a comma.

Thank you in advance, and thank you for v25.

Tschüss,
John

Hi John,

We probably should have included the counter in that 😉
Open counter.php in an editor and find lines 134-141.

search for:


Code (php):

number_format ( $module1 , 0 , "," , "." )

replace with:


Code (php):

number_format ( $module1 , 0 , "," , "," )

In the next update, we could also link this to the Admin Center.

Option 2

search line 127

Code (php):

include ( 'config/config.php' ); // include path to logfile

add new line 128

Code (php):

if ( isset ( $delimiters ) && ( $delimiters == 1 ) ) { $delimiter = ","; } else { $delimiter = "."; }

edit lines 135 – 142

Code (php):

number_format ( $moduleX , 0 , "," , "," )

replace with:

Code (php):

number_format ( $moduleX , 0 , "," , $delimiter )

The counter is set according to the settings in the Admin Center.

Hello again, Holger, that worked perfectly, thank you.  Although at first I used a hard-coded comma (,), I changed all my sites to instead use $delimiter.

If anyone else wishes to change their own Counters to use commas, in addition to Holger's option 2 above, you can change the Page Impressions value on your ticker to also use commas, with this code change in that same counter.php file:

search for:

Code (php):

{ $pageimpression = number_format ( file_row_size_big ( $logfile ) , 0 , "," , "." ); }

replace with:

Code (php):

{ $pageimpression = number_format ( file_row_size_big ( $logfile ) , 0 , "," , $delimiter ); }

Thanks again, Holger, and have a great day.

Regards,
John
