Hi!
I created a simple view to display articles on my homepage. Here's the code:
def homepage(request):
news = models.Section.objects.get(section = 'News')
articles = models.Article.objects.exclude(section = news.id
).order_by("-pub_date")
list_of_news = models.Article.objects.filter(section = news.id
).order_by("-pub_date")
return render_to_response('home.html', {'news' : list_of_news[:4],
'articles' : articles[:6]
}
Now I want to make first news item a little bit bigger, and to place it in a
different form.
I am processing the list in a template this way:
{% for item in news %}
<div id="latest_article">
<a href="{{ item.get_absolute_url }}"><img src="{% thumbnail
item.main_image 150x150 crop,upscale %}" /></a>
<a href="{{ item.get_absolute_url }}"><h1>{{ item.title }}</h1></a>
<div id="latest_description">
{{ item.short_description|truncatewords:60}}
</div>
</div>
<hr id="heading" />
{% endfor %}
Is there a way to check in the loop if it's a first item. And if so to
process it in a different way? Or do I have pass first article to template
separately?
Thanks,
Oleg
