It outputs values of "start_on" and "stop_before" parameters of exp:weblog:entries (for EE1.x) or exp:channel:entries (for EE2.2+) tag by inputting entry_ids of the first and the last entry in range.

PARAMETERS:

1) entry_id_from - Required. Use to specify entry_id of the first entry in range.

2) entry_id_to - Required. Use to specify entry_id of the last entry in range.

3) parse - Required. Should have the value “inward”.

VARIABLES:

1) start_on - outputs the value of “start_on” parameter of exp:weblog:entries tag.

2) stop_before - outputs the value of “stop_before” parameter of exp:weblog:entries tag.

EXAMPLE OF USAGE:

{exp:from_to entry_id_from="1260" entry_id_to="1250" parse="inward"}
{exp:channel:entries channel="my_channel" category="my_category" start_on="{start_on}" stop_before="{stop_before}" sort="asc" limit="20" dynamic="off"}
