limit on taxonomies not working

[beckysoll]

Expected behaviour

On an entry, i'd expect to be able to loop through linked taxonomy terms (from an actual taxonomy field, eg. categories) and add a limit like so {{ categories limit="1" }}{{ title }}{{ /categories }}

Actual behaviour

It returns nothing. If i remove the limit and wrap the inside of the categories loop with {{ if first }} that works. I can also do {{ categories:0 }} but then i'm not able to pull in the taxonomy's data, just the actual slug.

Steps to reproduce

1. try to loop through taxonomy terms for an entry and add some limit to the opening tag.

I should add, offset does not work in exactly the same way limit doesn't work.

The issue is that no modifiers work :)

Aaaaah, well that'll do it.

Hmm, seems to work for me, but in maybe an unexpected way...

I have three terms on this post:

{{ tags }}{{ title }}<br>{{ /tags }}

coffee
harry-potter

The limit of 1 works for me, but title isn't available, so it gets that from the post's context:

{{ tags limit="1" }}{{ title }}<br>{{ /tags }}

Test Blog Post

If I echo value instead of title, it works as expected:

{{ tags limit="1" }}{{ value }}<br>{{ /tags }}

coffee

@beckysoll It returns nothing at all for you?
