Collection:Previous Tag

If you're on a single entry page and want to show previous entries in order (publish date, alphabetical, or manual), this is the tag you're looking for.

Date Order

This tag relies on the native publish date field for date ordering.

Example

This will show the next 2 posts in a blog collection. It'll scope the entries loop into the posts tag pair. If there are no more entries, the no results text will be shown.

{{ collection:previous in="blog" as="posts" limit="2" sort="date:asc" }}
 
{{ if no_results }}
No more posts to read!
{{ /if }}
 
{{ posts }}
<div class="post">
<a href="{{ url }}">{{ title }}</a>
</div>
{{ /posts }}
 
{{ /collection:previous }}
Hot Tip!

This functions the same way as the collection:next tag but in the opposite direction.
