Place a limit on the items returned for repeating group

[olisun]

Hi,

I have a repeating group that returns all posts from my database. How do I place a limit on the number of items returned? For example, I want this repeating group to only show the first 4 posts to display on the index page. I did not see any options under constraints.

Thanks Oliver

Hi,
You can use the filtering in the data source section.

Please see the attached image.

Awesome. Thank you very much!

Repeating Groups have a pagination mode. You could also “Do a Search for… :items through #”.

Sounds like you need some general guidance on Repeating Groups. I have an excellent set of videos on this starting here, in my thread about my awesome plugin List Shifter. (Pro tip: There are zillions of great tips in here that have nothing to do with my plugin and watching me Bubble will – almost by osmosis – make you a better Bubbler.)

Check it out here and following:

List Shifter: Reverse, Rotate, Swap and ITERATE (Loop) Over Bubble Lists | Now Part of Floppy

Not my day department: Decided to do some video documentation for List Shifter (assuming I’ll ever get the new version published properly) and, of course, Bubble starts having issues on the shared cluster. Anyway, I’ll continue this, but here’s some talk about Repeating Groups: Link to the Loom video page itself.
