Also count screened comments
Title:
Also count screened comments
Area:
entries, little things that make sense
Summary:
Besides showing the number of visible comments to an entry, show the total number including screened.
Description:
In sitescheme, the total comment count on an entry in your own journal or a community you administrate shows only the visible (not screened) comments. So if you have an entry with a couple thousand comments but only 26 visible, it's going to show visitors a comment count of 26, and that same count to you also.
It's useful to know how many comments are visible, but would be useful to know how many comments there are total (for example, if you need to make a new entry soon because it's approaching the entry limit).
I propose that when a user who has the ability to view screened comments is viewing an entry, they see something like "26 visible | 1024 total comments". (If someone wants to know the number of screened comments, they can do the math.)
Exact best format for phrasing this totally open to debate.
This suggestion:
Should be implemented as-is.

Should be implemented with changes. (please comment)
1 (2.0%)
Shouldn't be implemented.
