Is there a way to determine if there are 0 results returned by a custom ranking script? I noticed that, if there are no results found, that the template_header and template_footer are displayed but the template_row isn't even processed. Since that is the case, I figure the best solution would be to add an if clause at the bottom of my header_template to display a notice, if there are no results returned. The trouble is, I cant seem to find a template variable that returns a count of items returned by the ranking script. Anybody have a solution?

You can use assign= as a parameter in your ranking. This will put the output of the ranking call into a variable, so you can check that there is output there, and then display it or a "no results" message accordingly.


Code
{jr_ranking mode="song" category="Instrumental" assign="results"}
{if isset($results) && strlen($results) > 1}
{$results}
{else}
There are no songs in the Instrumental category
{/if}
