Hello,

is it possible to get the end of a variable with the truncate function?
I.e.:

$var = "0100111";
{$var|truncate:4} {*Get the last 4*}

This should lead to the result: 0111 and not to 0100.

I know I can't use the truncate in the form it is above, but is there any way to do so?

Thank you so much in advance.

Antoine

if you don't need the funky split-at-word-boundary-features of truncate you can do:
{$var|substr:-4}

(you can use any php-function as a modifier, which can be very useful)
