Alloy question / show entries on landing page

Fuellemann · January 12, 2019, 5:59pm

Hi,

is there a way to e.g. show the most recent 1 or 2 blog entries on my normal landing page and they will auto update whenever I add a new blog entry in my blog page?

Thank you,
Jan

Yes, you can do it easily. However you need to add a general Alloy stack to the page. Make sure it has the folder location/name correct. Then just add a Recent Posts stack and set up as you want. Works really nicely.

Thank you - Alloy is a joy to set up - easy, still powerful and elegant

@mitchellm has it exactly right. There is also a video regarding the Recent Posts stack as well as the Categories List stack on the tutorials page. Both I think you’ll find interesting.

Also, when you want to go to the next level, check out the Conditionals stack video!
