Explain the problem as you see it
When creating a live search. I often want to know how many nodes are returned by a search, but can't see this information.
Why is this a problem for you?
- I want to know how many returned results there are in a live search
- I want an easy way to check that a live search has "got them all"
- I want to know how different search parameters are affecting the number of returned results
Suggest a solution
At the foot of a search, display the number of live search results. This could be combined with the pagination controls

Also, itâs really valuable to see which search nodes have results within them, and which donât. I have live searches setup in lots of supertags, like âtopicâ for example. Do I have 0 or 22 fleeting notes about @Tana? Itâs useful to know. If there are 0, then I wonât bother expanding it. The same for ANY topic/live search.
Other examples:
Book Tracking - it would be nice to see how many books I've read this year without having to manually count
Tasks this week - a count give a quick overview of whether the week is busy or not
Inventory - Saving a list of anything in Tana, it would be useful to have a count of items
