I will use this information to decide if a new nav item wil be showed or not.

I try this three alternatives. But none of them works.

function count_user_posts_by_type( $userid, $post_type = 'post' ) {
    global $wpdb;

    $where = get_posts_by_author_sql( $post_type, true, $userid );

    $count = $wpdb->get_var( "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->posts $where" );

    return apply_filters( 'get_usernumposts', $count, $userid );
}

$post_count = count_user_posts_by_type( 1, "movie" );

$post_count = count_user_posts_by_type( array(1), "movie", true );

$post_count = count_user_posts( 1 , "movie"  );

This codes works only with post.
