Question

I have @articles in my database and I want to query it but filter out the most recent article, then return all of the rest.

my controller is:

@articles = Article.find(:all, :order => "id desc")

and I am running a loop in my view:

<% @articles.each do |article| %>
...
<% end %>

I am imagining the view might be where I should apply some sort of filter, but can’t seem to find any documentation in my search so far.

hopefully an easy one?

thanks for your help!

Use

@articles = Article.find(:all, :order => "id desc", :conditions=>["id !=?", Article.last])
