# Infinite Scroll offset by one?

 * I’ve seen some other offset threads here, but mine seems simple by comparison:
   Using the click functionality, I’m looking for IS to provide six posts at a time,
   but the home page has one big feature as well, so the next post is the 8th, not
   the 7th.
 * I haven’t found a solution that asks Infinite Scroll to make that first 1-post
   jump… is there one?
 * Thanks,
    -Jeff

 * Cool visual.
 * What are you using for the query for the home page? How are you displaying posts
   2-7? IS generally repeats the same query.
 * In the meantime, I’ll try out a couple of ideas.
 * Cheers!

 * Ahhh! I was kind of ‘clever’ and the feature happens outside of a while loop,
   then 2-7 are generated within a while loop without a new query.
 * I’ll try recoding it with a new query between the feature and loop and report
   back.
 * ps: thanks!

 * I’ve been trying for a while, and resetting the query after the first article
   with an offset works for the page, but IS still picks up at article 7, not 8.
 * I can increase the ‘max posts per page’ setting to 7, so it starts at the right
   post (8), but then it of course displays 7 more, and puts the page layout askew.
   🙂
 * I even tried a new query AFTER the posts to try to hand-feed IS the right starting
   point and post count, but no dice. 🙂
 * I’ll give it a rest for now, but thanks for your help.
