This should be more obvious in the docs. As a link or also copy code tutorial as I couldn’t find how to do tailor blog template and what the tags were called. This helped a lot.

Hi, great work. Is there a way to replace the blog.paginate(2) with something like blog.count(2) so the for statement will return the last 2 posts created from the database? Thank you.

Hi! Thank you :)
What about the LandingPages on the next episode?

[javerleo]

Very promising tool. However, I can't find a comprehensive documentation about field types. For instance, how to define a date/time field?
