hi,
working with MT 3.2 (yes i know it's old... sigh) somehow our list of recent posts in the sidebar is not working properly... we only want to show the 6-10 most recent posts in the sidebar and with the following code it now for some reason is showing the 6-10th and then 5 other/older ones... any idea why and how to fix so it only shows the 6-10th most recent? thanks!
<div class="module-archives module">
<h2 class="module-header">Recent Posts</h2>
<div class="module-content">
<ul class="module-list">
<MTEntries lastn="10" offset="5">
<li class="module-list-item"><a href="<$MTEntryPermalink$>"><$MTEntryTitle$></a></li>
Reported on Movable Type 3.x
for some reason i can't seem to paste in the code even with the special form, but i believe this is the key part...
MTEntries lastn="10" offset="5"
actually on review, it seems to be showing post titles 6-15 rather than simply 6-10... any ideas why it's adding 5 extra titles would be appreciated, thanks
It should be doing 6-15 based on what you have described there. You have given it an offset of 5, and told it to span 10 database records with lastn="10". Set lastn to 5 if you only want 5 records.
thanks so much!
