Hi

The following block does not work anymore after version update

            {{#each index in (repeat 6)}}
              <button class="btn btn-default js-change-question {{currentQuestionClass index}}" data-index="{{index}}">{{inc index}}</button>
              <i class="fa cursor-pointer js-change-question {{questionIconClass index}}" data-index="{{index}}" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="{{inc index}}"></i>
            {{/each}}

I have the following versions:
blaze@2.5.0
blaze-html-templates@1.2.1
blaze-tools@1.1.2

how can I fix ?

Thanks

Hi, are you sure you just updated Meteor?

What is this repeat in the first line?

What is the error that you are getting?

Hi,

Are you sure you just updated Meteor?
Yes, I am.
$ meteor --version
Meteor 2.3.4

What is this repeat in the first line?
It is a Blaze syntax that is not supported anymore, it is supposed to be a loop from 0 to 6.

What is the error that you are getting?
The each loop is not working on the template.

I’m confused, I never used this repeat syntax (was it really a Blaze syntax?) and if you know it’s not working that is not the problem in the first place?

I assume he has (or had) a (template or global) helper repeat that no longer works, for whatever reason. The syntax is Blaze, as long as that helper exists.

I just confirmed, as long as that helper exists, the code in question works with the latest Meteor & Blaze.

My guess is @jpfernandezl has accidentally removed the helper or just copy-pasted code but omitted the helper.
