after
The following shows after being used in conjunction with the slicefunction:
{{ $data := slice "one" "two" "three" "four" }}
<ul>
{{ range after 2 $data }}
<li>{{ . }}</li>
{{ end }}
</ul>
The template above is rendered to:
<ul>
<li>three</li>
<li>four</li>
</ul>
Example of after with first: 2nd–4th most recent articles
You can use after in combination with the first function and Hugo’s powerful sorting methods. Let’s assume you have a section page at example.com/articles. You have 10 articles, but you want your template to show only two rows:
- The top row is titled “Featured” and shows only the most recently published article (i.e. by
publishdatein the content files’ front matter). - The second row is titled “Recent Articles” and shows only the 2nd- to 4th-most recently published articles.
