Excluded section from RSS, but rssLimit is still dependent on it

support
1

Using {{ if ne .Section "mysection" }} I excluded a section from the RSS, but they’re still being counted (iterated over), and logically so. Now, what I want to know, is how can I get it to stop counting posts from that certain section?

It would be helpful if we could see your code.

See https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/requesting-help/9132.

Let us see your code

Include a link to the source code repository of your project, because we really need the context of seeing your templates and partials to be able to help you. It is trivial to do a quick git clone on your repo, then run hugo server in your project, to help you out. On the other hand, recreating your code from screenshots, or sort of guessing at it, is not.

If you can’t share your repository for whatever reason, consider creating a dummy repo that you can share, which reproduces the problem you’re experiencing.

This is my modified RSS template.
