{% endfor %}
Run Example »
Definition and Usage
The add
filter adds a specified argument to a
value.
The add
filter tries to convert the values
into numbers and return the sum, but if is not possible to convert the values into numbers, the specified
argument will be added at the end:
Example
Add the phrase "-CHECK" at the end of each fruit:
{% for x in fruits %}
<h1>{{ x|add:"-CHECK" }}</h1>
{% endfor %}

You can also add one list to another:
Example
Add the list vegetables
at the end of the
list fruits
:
{{ fruits|add:vegetables }}
Run Example »
Note: If Django is unable to convert the values into the same data type, it will return an empty string.
