    On a section page, I am using list_articles to show the most recent articles in a given section. As each article is listed, I would like to include how many comments have been made to that article. I was wondering if I was just missing some parameter, or will I need to write code to pull in the comment number?

    Thanks in advance for any insight.

    From the manual:
    http://en.flossmanuals.net/CampSite/TemplateObjects

    "Comments related properties/functions:

    - comments_enabled: true if comments were enabled for the article
    publication, article type and the current article
    - comments_locked: true if comments were locked (meaning they can be
    listed but no new comments can be posted)
    - comment_count: returns the number of the comments posted to the article
    and approved"

    $campsite->article->comment_count
