Variables in [pass list]?

    I would like to write something like:

    [pass 2016~2021]
...
[/pass]

    in a programmatic way.

    For example, for the first term (2016, in my example), I’d like to define a variable, while for the second therm (2021, in my example), I’d like to use the today CSS shortcode.

    Example:

    [set startingyear]2016[/set]
[set endingyear][today format=Y][/set]

[pass list=startingyear~endingyear]
...
[/pass]

    Unfortunately, this approach doesn’t seem to work. Any idea on how to fix it, or how to find an alternative way?

    Thanks!

    Does this do it:

    [set x]2016[/set]
[set y][today format=Y][/set]

[pass vars]
  [-pass list={X}~{Y}]
  {-Item}
  [/-pass]
[/pass]

    It will show:

    2016
2017
2018
2019
2020
2021

    Thanks to @polarracing for heads up here.

    I can’t thank you enough. The dash in front of Item was the glaring omission.
