Hi everyone,

I have a blog working with a partial view macro (taken from the standard template if I remember correctly), and I would like to see the latest 3 entries on the homepage, but I don't know, how to do this...

This is the code for the blog page:

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage<ContentModels.Blog>
@using ContentModels = Umbraco.Web.PublishedContentModels;
@{
    Layout = "master_de.cshtml";
}

<section class="section align-left">
    <div class="container">
            @Umbraco.RenderMacro("latestBlogposts",
                         new
                         {
                             numberOfPosts = Html.Raw(Umbraco.Field("noofposts").ToString()),
                             startNodeId = Model.Content.Id
                         })
    </div>
</section>

The macro code is:

@using ContentModels = Umbraco.Web.PublishedContentModels;
@using Umbraco.Web;
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage
@{ 
    var startNodeId = Model.MacroParameters["startNodeId"] != null ? Model.MacroParameters["startNodeId"] : Model.Content.Id;
    var numberOfPosts = 100;
    if (Model.MacroParameters["numberOfPosts"] != null)
    {
        int.TryParse((string)Model.MacroParameters["numberOfPosts"], out numberOfPosts);
    }
 }
@if (startNodeId != null)
{
    @* Get the starting page *@
    var startNode = Umbraco.TypedContent(startNodeId);
    var blogposts = startNode.Children.OrderByDescending(x => x.CreateDate).Take(numberOfPosts);

    if (blogposts.Any())
    {
        foreach (ContentModels.Blogpost post in blogposts)
        {
        <section class="section align-center" style="padding: 40px 0 10px;">
            <div class="container">
                <div class="col-sm-6 align-center img-column">
                    @if(post.BlogImage != null){

                        <a href="@post.Url"><img src="@post.BlogImage.Url" /></a>
                    }
                </div>

                <div class="col-sm-6 align-left">
                    <article style="max-width: 480px;">
                        <h5>@post.PageTitle</h5>
                        <small class="blogpost-date">@post.UpdateDate.ToShortDateString()</small>                       
                        <p>@post.Excerpt</p>
                        <a href="@post.Url" class="btn btn-outline-clr" style="margin: 30px 0 0">Read more</a>
                    </article>
                </div>
            </div>
        </section>
        }
    }
}

I would be happy, if anyone could help me with that...
