On my channel entry page I’m trying to show the next 4 entries after the current one. And if the entries end, it loops around to the beginning again.

I thought I was close with the Nearby Entries add on (http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/nearby-entries) but it doesn’t loop around to the beginning.

Then I thought I was close with Advanced Prev Next add on (http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/advanced-prev-next-entry) but it doesn’t show more than 1 coming up.

It seems like it’s a simple enough query that I shouldn’t need an addon. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hi David,

You can use offset and limit parameter of channel entry.

like:

{exp:channel:entries channel="channel_name" offset="2" limit="4"}
{title}
{/exp:channel:entries}

I hope, it would help you.

Thanks,

Thanks for the reply! That looks like a promising route, except I don’t know how many I should offset by with a given entry,

Yes, that would be a trick.

Could you please share a little about your template tag. how you are populating the channel data.

For your hint, we can use first {count} from first channel loop within another channel as offset parameter.

Thanks,
