Split article listing into two columns in a wiki page (homepage)
Hi Gary (and all the other tiki gods)!
I was trying a code suggestion of yours (found in the themes forum area) to get a two column article listing for a homepage.

Personally, I use the Split plugin for two columns. You could certainly do something like;
{SPLIT()} {ARTICLES(start=>44,max=>1)}{ARTICLES} --- {ARTICLES(start=>2,max=>1)}{ARTICLES} {SPLIT}

I just did a cut/paste of the above on ahomepage. Sure enough, I got two columns, but they both displayed the SAME articles. Like this:

I didn't see the "start" parm documented anywhere, but I was guessing that it was sort of an "offset" or something.
I'd like to have two columns, but show the first 5 (or so) articles on the left of the wiki page, then continue with articles 6 thru (say) 10 on the right column of the split wiki page.
Am I making any sense? Can you or anyone assist with a hint?
(btw/ what is the purpose and syntax of the "start" parameter?)
