Hi all!

What would be the simplest way of getting “the rest of the items”? I.e. I’m looping thru my pages with a limit, but as a last link in in the list id like to display a “…and X more posts” link. How would i do that?

{{ range first 3 .Pages }}
    <a href="{{ .URL }}">{{ .Title }}</a>,
{{end}}
<a href"">...and X more pages</a>

Try this

Worked like a charm!

If you know the total number:

{{ range last 4 .Pages }}
    <a href="{{ .URL }}">{{ .Title }}</a>,
{{end}}
<a href"">...and X more pages</a>

I ended up doing like this:

{{ range first 3 .Pages }}
		<a href="{{ .URL }}">{{ .Title }}</a>,
		{{end}}

		{{ $rest := .Pages | symdiff (first 3 .Pages) }}

		{{ if $rest }}
		och <a href="{{ .URL }}">{{len $rest}} sidor till</a>
		{{end}}

just realized a little problem, on the last round in the range i dont want to output the "," sign. Is there something like a loop variable i Go so that I can detect if the range loop is on the last iteration?
