Description

Displays the count video content sets starting at start for the current or a given (set of) section(s). It uses the show_videos template to display this information.

Examples

Paging

This function has built in paging. You just need to set start to be the start of output and it will go to 'count'. On the next call it has to be start+count and the go backward it would be start-count. Out default list_videos template takes care of the math for you, but you need to add the start value to the function call like this:

{carma_list_videos count=20 section=1 start=$smarty.request.start }

$smarty.request.start will always contain the page's start value.
