Answer 1

//Quickfix:
//assuming your posts table is called posts and that in your blogetccomments table //you have a post_id column pointing to the original post. Try something like
$posts = DB::table('posts')
->leftJoin('blogetccomments', 'posts.id', '=', 'blogetccomments.post_id')
->selectRaw('posts.*, count(blogetccomments.post_id) as commentcount')
->groupBy('posts.id')
->get();
In your blade template, Access the comments count for each post, as follows..
#foreach($posts as $post)
...
{{$post->title}}...
{{$post->commentcount}}
...
#endforeach

You can use withCount() to get count of comments for a specific post :
$posts = $posts->withCount('comments')
->orderBy("posted_at", "desc")
->paginate(config("blogetc.per_page", 10));
Above would require you to have comments relation on your Post Model :
Post Model :
public function comments()
{
return $this->hasMany(BlogEtcComment::class);
}
BlogEtcComment Model :
public function post()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Post::class);
}
And then in blade :
#foreach($posts as $post)
<p>Post : $post->id</p>
<p>Comments : $post->comments_count</p>
#endforeach
