    Use the {{ list_articles }} statement to get the articles you want. You can
    specify the order of the articles. E.g.:
    {{ list_articles order="byPublishDate desc" }}

    If you want to display only a certain article from the list you can use the
    following code:
    {{ list_articles length="5" order="byPublishDate desc" }}
    {{ if $campsite->current_list->index == 5 }}

    {{ /if }}
    {{ /list_articles }}

    You can use the same construction for each of the 5 articles you want to
    display, each with it's own custom display format.
