Description

Apparent bug of undocumented feature within the ARTICLESplugin, such that the "start" parameter does not seem to function.

In the example below, This was coded into the body of a wiki page. I was trying to have two ARTICLES columns, but show the first 5 (or so) articles on the left of the wiki page, then continue with articles 6 thru (say) 10 on the right column of the split wiki page.

Gary (chibaguy) suggested the code below (including the "start" parameter), but it appears that I get identical lists of articles, rather than one column listing articles 1 thru 5, and another parallel one listing articles 6 thru 10 (as expected). "Start" doesn't appear to be documented, but Gary chibaguy suggested it's use to me.

example code to reproduce problem
Copy to clipboard
{SPLIT()} {ARTICLES(start=1,max=5)}{ARTICLES} --- {ARTICLES(start=6,max=10)}{ARTICLES} {SPLIT}


Please see http://tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?forumId=4&comments_parentId=35859&thread_sort_mode=commentDate_asc#comments

Gary suggested that I submit this as a bug, so this is it. It would be awesome to be able to do a two column split of articles via the inline plug, but not when the lists are identical.

Thanks to you for looking into this!!! -sd 😊
