This might help you. http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/stats/...

Thank you, but we were looking really for how many pages are created per day, and this one does not seem to provide that. Do you know of anything else that could provide this?

I dont think so, but there are addons added to the marketplace frequently.

"Pages added today" would be an easy symbol to add to Magic Data. There are already symbols that do some other stats and meta-data enquiries.

Magic Data deliberately does not evaluate within the dashboard, so you would need to create your admin display on a front-end page protected by permissions.

JohntheFish,
Thank you for your response. Do you have documentation on how to do what you are suggesting?

If the pages you are interested in are all beneath a specific page, there are already symbols LIST_RECENT_PAGES and LIST_RECENT_PAGES_OF_TYPE, so you may be able to achieve what you want in a magic data expression with no custom symbols at all. It would take the results of one of the above, filter by time >= 00:01 am, and count what is left.

Magic Data symbols can also be used to merge or nest lists, so a similar approach could be used for pages that are more spread out.

If not, one of the above symbols would make a good starting point for an appropriate custom symbol.

There are the docs pages associated with each Magic Data family addon on this site, starting from:
http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/magic-data/...
and following links.

More specific, there are further support pages on my own site. In particular:

Hi JohntheFish,
I would like to use LIST_RECENT_PAGES or LIST_RECENT_PAGES_OF_TYPE, like you have suggested, but I do not see these listed in the Magic Data Symbols when I access Magic Data Symbols through the Dashboard. Should they be listed here?
Thanks.

Ok, I realized I had to update the add-on. Now that I have the most recent version, I see the LIST_RECENT_PAGES symbol. Now I'm trying to see if I can get this to work :)

Hi JohntheFish or anyone who could help....
I've tried several combinations, but I'm not getting an accurate result. I'm unclear if I need to create a Rule Set, and then evaluate, or use the Token symbol evaluation tester first? I've tried both. What would the correct syntax be to get the number of pages created today? Would the following be correct as a rule set?

SET 1 LIST_RECENT_PAGES 100 COUNT_LIST

then choose "Home" and check box "children"?

I assume that this means list up to 100 recent pages. Not sure what 'SET 1' does. How would I incorporate the time filter?

Thank you in advance for your help.

i believe you may need to SET 1 CONTEXT Page...

SET will set the following parameter, 1 in this case in CONTEXT of either User or Page depending on the chosen parameter...
