Red Cars in Inventory: [count color=red] Would return the number of cars, as well as a link to yoursite.com/?color=red (which may rewrite depending on your permalink structure) Usage Insert a shortcode in your post in the form of [count {taxonomy}={value}]. You can add as many or as fiew taxonomies as you would like. You can also use the post_type argument to specify a post type (page, post, car, etc.) List Usage You can count all terms within a taxonomy, e.g., [list-counts taxonomy=”tags”] or across all taxonomies [list-counts].
