i'm using kirby cms , need find out how many posts have.

my posts gotten with

$posts = $pages->find('posts')->children(); 

which echos object 10 items (links posts).

it not array using count() returns 1.

i have no experience library. try this, might work:

$count = $pages->find('posts')->children()->count();
