I have entries from a weblog paginated, 5 per page. I have a divider image in my template that goes in between each blog entry. Link to page The problem is, the divider shows up on the last post of the page, creating an unnecessary divider. Is there anyway with an if conditional or some other method to NOT show the divider if the entry is the last entry on the page.

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="staff" sort="asc" limit="5" paginate="bottom"}
  
  <div class="staff-member">
    <h3 class="clear"><a href="http://{path=about/staff/{url_title}}">{title}</a> - {position}</h3>
    {staff-photo} {staff-member-bio}
        
        <!-- blog entry divider -->
        <div class="hr"><hr ></div>

  <!-- close staff-member -->
  </div>
  
  {paginate} {pagination_links}{/paginate}
 {/exp:weblog:entries}

Try it with

{if total_results Q= count}
        <!-- blog entry divider -->
        <div class="hr"><hr ></div>
{/if}

Think that should do the trick.

Robin, I tried your code and received the following error on the page:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/wbcweb/public_html/system/core/core.functions.php(637) : eval()'d code on line 26

EE 1.6.3 / Build: 20080421

I think maybe Robin slipped on the keyboard earlier maybe? 😉

The code should be :

{if total_results == count}
<!-- blog entry divider -->
<div class="hr"><hr ></div>
{/if}

Hopefully that should do it for you.

Best wishes,

Hi Mark, thanks for your response. Close, but no cigar…

That code puts the divider on the last post only. I want the divider on every post but the last. I threw in an if:else which solved that issue. Thanks to both of you for the help!

The first if statement is empty, is that kosher? It seems to be working exactly the way I want it to.

{if total_results == count}
  {if:else}
  <!-- blog entry divider --><div class="hr"><hr ></div>
{/if}

Oops sorry!

Didn’t read the post correctly.

Should be this code then :

{if total_results != count}
<!-- blog entry divider -->
<div class="hr"><hr ></div>
{/if}

😊

Best wishes,

Mark

Thanks again Mark.

I always forget about global variables, they are helpful.

{if total_results != count}
<!-- blog entry divider -->
{divider}
{/if}

Yep you can do that too 😉

Glad you are all set now.

Best wishes,

Mark

Heh- for some reason I had a Q instead of an equal sign in the example code.  😉  Yea- that wouldn’t work.

Glad Mark got you squared- I’m closing this on out.
