Headlines start at 6 Can't Post

Hi,

On my news page i have 5 articles with summary, all the rest of the articles must be shown online as headline...

Is it possible to give an start for the headlines?

(see http://www.buitenhuis.nl/cgi/cms/publish/cat_index_9.shtml for my problem) The headlines also includes the earlier shown articles...

Hi there.

Thanks for posting!

What you can do there is actually use the search engine to pull in the most recent headlines starting from number 6. Bascically you would just need to make a new search results template that matches the feel of your exiting headlines file and then setup a special include statement and you are done. Does that sound like it’s going to work?

Let me know what you thing and I can go into more detail on how to set this up. I look forward to hearing from you :).

Ok, i understand how to get the headlines starts with the sixth article...

But how do i get the first 5 articles different (with summary and picture)?

Code
http://www.buitenhuis.nl/cgi/zoeken/exec/search.cgi?perpage=5&start=6&template=search/frontpage_list.html

this is the proper code to call using SSI from your frontpage (assuming you have a template with your desired format located in the search folder, called frontpage_list.html

Hi,

Thanks for posting! Smile

I've taken a look over what you were hoping to set up and it looks like Marssin's suggestion should work for you. Thanks Marssin! :)

One other thing I'll mention is that you'll also want to include &search=1 to your search query so the link would look like this:

http://www.buitenhuis.nl/cgi/zoeken/exec/search.cgi?perpage=5&start=6&template=search/frontpage_list.html&search=1

I hope this helps and if you have any other questions or comments, just let me know! Smile
