I guess there’s another method but this one works fine for me just fine. You can say ‘Why the hell one would need something like that?’ but just try to Google for the subject of this post and you’ll see it doesn’t seem to be so useless. Here it is:


<?php
	$numposts = $wpdb->get_var( "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status = 'publish'" );
	echo $numposts;
?>
