User Macro for counting Child Pages with Label

[Brian Taylor]

I have a macro that use to work that owed allow to select a page and a label and return the number of child pages under that page.  but getting the following 

Under Active Project Status Reports there are $pageCount pages with the label status-report

Instead of the number being returned I get the variable $pageCount

not sure why the this happening - any help appreciated 

## @param ParentPage:title=Page|type=confluence-content|required=true|desc=Select a page for which to count the children 
## @param Label:title=label|type=string|required=true|desc=Specify a label to count #set($pageCount = 0) 
#set ( $colonIndex = $paramParentPage.indexOf(":") ) 
#if ( $colonIndex == -1 ) 
 #set ( $parentSpaceKey = $space.key ) 
 #set ( $parentPageName = $paramParentPage ) 
#else 
 #set ( $parentSpaceKey = $paramParentPage.substring(0, $colonIndex) ) 
 #set ( $parentPageNameIndex = $colonIndex + 1 ) 
 #set ( $parentPageName = $paramParentPage.substring($parentPageNameIndex) ) 
#end 
#set ( $parentPage = $pageManager.getPage($parentSpaceKey, $parentPageName) ) 
#foreach( $child in $parentPage.descendents ) 
 #foreach( $childlabel in $child.labels ) 
 #if($childlabel.name == $paramLabel ) 
 #set($pageCount = $pageCount +1) 
 #end 
 #end 
#end 
<p>Under $parentPageName there are $pageCount pages with the label $paramLabel</p>

If I understand your comment, you are only seeing the variable name being displayed. That would suggest that the following statement is never found to be true:

 #if($childlabel.name == $paramLabel ) 

I would suggest using a different method to get a list of child pages, so instead of:

#foreach( $child in $parentPage.descendents )

I would try:

#foreach( $child in $parentPage.getChildren() )
