Hi all,

I’m wondering if anybody knows of a nice way to offset entries in a channel entry loop.

I have a bunch of client logos that with the help of JS rotate, there’s actually a 3x4 grid of icons, all displaying the same logos in the same order but starting from different points.

So if the actual sequence is:-

A - B - C - D - E - F - G

The second box on the grid would display it as

B - C - D - E - F - G - A

... and the third…

C - D - E - F - G - A - B

...etc.

Does anybody know of the best route to do this?

Hi, Andrew -

Would the offset= parameter help with this?

Hi Lisa,

I did wonder - however it appears that offset skips anything that comes before the offset. In this instance I’d need it to loop back to those that have been offsetted at the end.

Cheers.

Although, thinking about it… I could offset by 1 and then do another channel loop limited by the amount I’ve offset by.

For example

{exp:channel:entries channel="ch_test" offset="3"}{title}{/exp:channel:entries}
{exp:channel:entries channel="ch_test" limit="3"}{title}{/exp:channel:entries}

Hi, Andrew -

Yes, I was assuming there would be 3 channel entries tags, one with no offset, one with 1 offset, one with 2 offset.

Make more sense now?
