Posts on home page

  • I was just wondering if anyone knew how many posts are kept on the home page at one time. Right now I think mine is holding all 17 of my posts, and I was wondering if there was anyway to edit that, or if it is just always going to hold all my posts. I would rather it hold 10 or something and then after that they are only in my categories.
    Thanks for your time

  • -> Dashboard -> Options -> Reading and scroll down

    Blog Pages
    Show at most:____posts (insert your number)
    click “update options” to save
    P.S. Rule of thumb is seven but the length of your sidebar also comes into play as well.

  • Thank you so much. Just another quick question, when i do that, does that limit the number of posts that show up in my category pages. Like if i choose 10, will that make it so only 10 posts show up in my categories??
    Thanks again

  • No. Categories do not display until a post assigned to the category is entered. Thereafter every category to which a post has been assigned displays. And all categories are displayed in alphabetical order with their sub-categories alphabetically ordered beneath them
    Category widgets can be configured to display the number of posts as well as to display the hierarchy of sub-categories by alphabetical order under each category. And this will help with the set up and configuring of widgets.
