Hello,

When you dynamically need to output records from a database inside your Clip-Bucket, by this moment, you may have noticed that Clip-Bucket is powered by Smarty template engine, therefore, you cannot use a while() loop, for example, like you would normally do in native PHP. In this article we will review the use of {section}{/section} to loop through a MySQL records array.

Difficulty level: Medium (if you know how to use loops in PHP, you’ll find it easier)

1. Create the query to retrieve records from your database (in this example I’ll use queries for MySQL, but you can use any database)
