Is there a way to find the exact number of categories without manually counting them?
Thanks.

Andy's Ultra Global plug-in.
If you already have it installed you can get the category count with:

Alternatively you can use a separate global:
Title:
Global:
my $cat_db = $DB->table ('Category');
my $count = $cat_db->total;
return $count;
}
Call it with:
Title:
Code:
total_catsGlobal:
Code:
sub { # show total number of categories (without commas - 123456) my $cat_db = $DB->table ('Category');
my $count = $cat_db->total;
return $count;
}
Call it with:
Code:
<%total_cats%>
