Quick Start Issue - Digital Ocean

I've just stumbled across Locomotive and it looks really good so thought I'd give it a go. Starting with the quick start guide it all went well until I got down to number 5. Deploy the site.

Access secont element in contents array

It is possible to access contents.posts.first and .last. How do I access arbitrary elements? I know I can do .all[i], but this fetches all documents from the database and is thus inefficient. In locomotivecms_steam-1.1.1/lib/locomotive/steam/liquid/drops/content_entry_collection.rb a slice(index, length) function is defined which should do exactly what I want. However it is protected and cannot be accessed over the liquid API. What do?

Using booleans in metafields

I set up a metafield with a boolean value and used it to control display of a portion of a page inside the tag {% if %}. I set it up in my config file using true or false for the default values, and the page displays in Wagon as I would expect based on the value I set. But when I push the site to the engine, the value I set using the back office makes no difference in the display of the page. The portion of the page I'm trying to control displays regardless of the value. I'm wondering if I have a fundamental misunderstanding of something.

Search/Filter function on content entries

Hi, the old locomotive hosting admin pages had a function to search for entries. I can't seem to find it in the locomotive works portal. We have about 700 events on the site, and it's borderline unusable without it.
