Print news link only when news is present and published

fretzl

Scenario:
A menu with a "News" link to news.php.
This link is wrapped in some HTML.
What I'd like is: to not print the HTML/News-link if there is are no news-tems or only unpublished news-items.

Any tips ?

If using the official menus, no way without modifiying. If a custom (static) menu try `getNumNews()`. It uses the class method getArticles/getCombiNews internally so it should not return unpublished items unless - as alway - loggedin with the appropiate rights.

Thanks. I'll give it a try.

Works great!
`if(getNumNews(true) > 0) {....}`

`if (getNumNews() > 0) {...}`
