Hi,
I’m looking to use both the Big Slide and the Article List to display the latest articles. However – I want to show the latest 4 articles in the Big Slide and then articles 5+ in the Article List. Any way to do this? Presently it just duplicates the latest articles twice.
Thanks.
I was able to get this to work by setting the Big Slide to display Featured Stories and then have the the Article List not display the Featured Stories. This is a kludge and temporary solution though, as I’d rather not manage Featured Stories every time I post.
Hope that someone has a better solution.
Hello,
You can offset posts from article list, edit the template you use ex. for Homepage – with article list edit page-homepage-loop.php file and add this query_posts('offset=5'); like here: http://screencast.com/t/4JhbpnY2 and from the article list the post will omit first 5 posts
Thanks
Worked like a charm. Thx Marius!
Alas, I spoke too soon. After I went in and customized the Newspaper theme (via wp-admin/customize.php) the problem has re-appeared.
I’ve gone back into the page-homepage-loop.php file and query_posts('offset=4'); is still there.
Is there any way that customizing the theme could have broken this fix?
Hello,
make the modification again and make sure to save and to not overwrite the file. The theme does not change any files ever. All the settings are stored in the database.
Hope this helps
