Asset Listing Last 5 but not the newest?

Hi,


I want to list asset in a bracket and can't see any option.



For example I have 10 assets in a folder and I use asset listing with sort by date to list the latest assets but don't want to list the newest.


  1. Asset (15 May) <-- Do Not List
  2. Asset (14 May) <-- List
  3. Asset (13 May) <-- List
  4. Asset (12 May) <-- List
  5. Asset (11 May) <-- List
  6. Asset (10 May) <-- List









    Thanks.

There are a number of different ways of doing this but my favorite is to use css. Add a class to whatever container your asset has around it and use the list position keyword for the class name. Then create a css class that hides 1.

    If you know that there is always one item per day, you could use a whats new listing and only list items more than one day old.



    the other way is to add a position format, and add a style="display:none", but this won't hide it from some screen readers

Ok people, here we go.


If you never want to list the first asset, just customize the position format of position 1, and leave the type format blank! Super simple.



Done.

Ah yes, my new favorite way now:)


Not to be confused with "list position settings" on the details screen that used to be the only way to format a position in the list.

Thanks for the tips.


I think I will try Nic's way, once I get out of bed.
