AJAX Scroller: limiting number of news
« on: 06 May 2009, 19:44 »
Hi,

I want to limit the number of news that show up on AJAX Scroller, maybe to last five, for instance. How can I do that?

Thanks,

CM

Hello,

It can't be limited right now but it's a good idea for the next version (I don't know why I haven't added this setting).

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

While you are at it: apart from 0 to mean static content (uncategorized), on the include categories field, you could also have, for instance, negative numbers to indicate categories to exclude, and something else (00?) to exclude static content. I have some 40 categories, I only wanted to exclude the static content, so I had to write out each category's ID, which is a little absurd.

Keep up the good work!

Hi,
If I set "Max number of items" as 3 or 5, it doesn´t work (blank scroll). It just works with 0.
I´m using J! 1.5.10 and legacy mode.
Best regards,

Which kind of listing? Articles, RSS or Twitter?

Articles.
I can use only 0 on that field.

Just tested again and it works just fine with or without legacy mode.
Send a mail with your URL and admin password and I will look at your issue.

Thanks. It was a little bug. Fixed in v1.2.1.
