Question: I am trying to fill my webpage with content based on content stored in a database. However, I would like to skip the first item; I want to start looping from the second item.

How can I achieve this?

```
@foreach($aboutcontent as $about)
<div class="col-md-4 text-center">
   <div class="thumbnail">
     <img id="" class="img-responsive" src="images/{{ $about->aboutimg }}" alt="">
        <div class="caption">
            <h3>{{ $about->aboutname }}</h3>
            <p>{{ $about->aboutinfo }}</p>
        </div>
   </div>
</div>
@endforeach

```

Answer: 
Try This :

```
@foreach($aboutcontent as $key => $about)
@if($key > 0){ 
   <div class="col-md-4 text-center">
       <div class="thumbnail">
         <img id="" class="img-responsive" src="images/{{ $about->aboutimg }}" alt="">
            <div class="caption">
                <h3>{{ $about->aboutname }}</h3>
                <p>{{ $about->aboutinfo }}</p>
            </div>
       </div>
    </div>
@endif;
@endforeach

```
Assuming that the `$aboutcontents` is numeric array just use the good old fashioned `for` loop instead of your new fangled `foreach`

```
// Notice you start at 1 and your first
// elem is 0 so... ta da... skipped
@for ($i = 1; $i < count($aboutcontents); $i++){
    $about = $aboutcontents[$i]; //This is the object

    //now use $about as you would
}

```

*Note: I have not used Larvel or blades but based on the docs this should be doable*
