1st post other css

I’m not sure how to ask this question, but I want to give the 1st/top post an other css code/id/class. I can change it when I added a new post, but I do’nt want that. Any sugestions?

Regards.

Display two lists. First a list of one, then a list of 4 (or whatever).
http://textpattern.net/wiki/index.php?title=Txp:article_/ – check pageby and offset.

You can then either use a different form-name in the article-tag, or you can wrap the first list with another element and use that for styling.

Re: 1st post other css

I do this on one of my sites.

My main page has this code:

<code>
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:article form=“currentarticle” limit=“1” />
<br />
<txp:article offset=“1” form=“excerpt-data” limit=“4” sortby=“Posted” sortdir=“desc” excerpted=“y” />
</txp:if_article_list>
</code>

<br />The key here is the currentarticle form:

<code>
<div id=“currart”>
<h2><txp:title /></h2>
<txp:body />
<div class=“articledata”>
<span class=“posted”><txp:posted /></span><br />
<txp:permlink>Full Article</txp:permlink>
<txp:if_comments_allowed> | <txp:comments_invite /></txp:if_comments_allowed>
</div>
</div>
</code>

<br />In my stylesheet I set the CSS specification for currart to the styling I want the first article on the page to have. You can see this in use at <a href=“http://www.ve1cbf.ca” title=“VE1CBF The Yak Shack”>The Yak Shack</a>.

You can also do this with just one form, with txp:if_first_article.
