# Offset parameter?

 * Hello! I really love this plugin, so thank you. 🙂
 * I was wondering how complicated it would be to incorporate an offset option? 
   offset=”1″ or offset=”-1″ or whatever it might be?
 * Or, is there a way to do this now I don’t realize? I’ve been searching, but am
   not having much luck.
 * I appreciate your help!

 * I have added the `posts_per_page` and `page` parameters that might help in some
   circumstances.

 * Well, that doesn’t really do what I need. I have child pages displaying, but 
   I am showing the first child page at the top, then the next 4 child pages smaller
   underneath in a totally separate section. So my goal is to, as we add child pages,
   for it to offset and show me the latest one at the top and then can offset by-
   1 in the pages below, like you would with posts.
 * Is this possible?

 * Turns out it is possible, but not as straightforward as may be expected as adding
   an offset to WP_Query does odd things to pagination.
 * I have just uploaded a new version of the plugin adding `offset` and `limit` 
   parameters which should hopefully let you do what you describe in your post.
