How do I combine results from two queries on the same model?

Question

I need to return exactly ten records for use in a view. I have a highly restrictive query I\'d like to use, but I want a less restrictive query in place to fill in the results i

Answer 1

I think you can do all of this in one query:

 Article.published.order('listed ASC, created_at DESC').limit(10)

I may have the sort order wrong on the listed column, but in essence this should work. You'll get any listed items first, sorted by created_at DESC, then non-listed items.
