collections.After
Syntax
collections.After INDEX COLLECTION ⟼ any
Alias
after
The following shows after
being used in conjunction with the slice
function:
{{ $data := slice "one" "two" "three" "four" }}
{{ range after 2 $data }}
{{ . }}
{{ end }}
→ ["three", "four"]
Example of after
with first
: 2nd–4th most recent articles
You can use after
in combination with the first
function and Hugo’s powerful sorting methods. Let’s assume you have a list page at example.com/articles
. You have 10 articles, but you want your templating for the list/section page to show only two rows:
- The top row is titled “Featured” and shows only the most recently published article (i.e. by
publishdate
in the content files’ front matter). - The second row is titled “Recent Articles” and shows only the 2nd- to 4th-most recently published articles.
