  <p>I don't want it like this:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 1</li>

  <li><strong>Promoted News</strong> - Entry 2</li>
  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 3</li>
  <li><strong>Promoted News</strong> - Entry 3</li>
  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 4</li>
  <li><strong>Promoted News</strong> - Entry 4</li>
  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 5</li>
  <li><strong>Promoted News</strong> - Entry 5</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>But like this:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 1</li>
  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 2</li>

  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 3</li>
  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 4</li>
  <li><strong>Promoted News</strong> - Entry 2</li>
  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 5</li>
  <li><strong>News</strong> - Entry 6</li>
  <li><strong>Promoted News</strong> - Entry 3</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I thought about doing it using a conditional and incrementing a variable, but I don't think this would work with pagination so I need to merge them in to one array.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to do this? My heads mashed thinking about doing this...</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>

Title: Merge Entries but only after X amount of entries
ThreadText: # Merge Entries but only after X amount of entries
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2016-03-03)
  
  I'm trying to get entries from two sections and merge them together which is pretty straight forward using the merge filter.
  
  For example, my sections are:
  
  * News
  * Promoted News
  
  But, my main issue is I only want Entry 1 from **Promoted News** to appear after 2 entries in **News** and so on (In a 2 entry increment)
  
  I don't want it like this:
  
  * **News** - Entry 1
  * **Promoted News** - Entry 1
  * **News** - Entry 2
  * **Promoted News** - Entry 2
  * **News** - Entry 3
  * **Promoted News** - Entry 3
  * **News** - Entry 4
  * **Promoted News** - Entry 4
  * **News** - Entry 5
  * **Promoted News** - Entry 5
  
  But like this:
  
  * **News** - Entry 1
  * **News** - Entry 2
  * **Promoted News** - Entry 1
  * **News** - Entry 3
  * **News** - Entry 4
  * **Promoted News** - Entry 2
  * **News** - Entry 5
  * **News** - Entry 6
  * **Promoted News** - Entry 3
  
  I thought about doing it using a conditional and incrementing a variable, but I don't think this would work with pagination so I need to merge them in to one array.
  
  Is it possible to do this? My heads mashed thinking about doing this...
  
  Thanks!

  Seems like a rather specific edge case, so I'd be surprised if there's something built in (nothing comes to mind). However, you could write a custom twig filter fairly easily to do this.
