Thread: Show job count in category sidebar

Show job count in category sidebar

I know that it's possible to show the total number of jobs in the sidebar using a text widget, exec php and this code:

<?php
$count_pages = wp_count_posts('job_listing');
echo $count_pages->publish;
?> Jobs

However, I'd like to be able to show the number of jobs in each of the sub-categories, when a visitor expands the Job Category area in the sidebar.

I'd like it to display something like:

Job Parent (80)
- Sub cat 1 (10)
- Sub cat 2 (15)
- Sub cat 3 (5)
- Sub cat 4 (50)

Can someone please help me out here?

Thanks,

Matt
