a few posts on a page
-
how do i have multiple pages on all my pages on my site? I dont want to have all my posts one page. People would be scrolling down forever. How do i just have a few posts on a page?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

that is an interesting question. How many posts is “standard” per page,if there is a standard. I have my setting on 8 posts per page after notching it down because it seemed too long
-
I think the default is 10, but you can set it to whatever suits you. If you write short twitter-like posts, then 10 should be OK, but if you write long posts, then definitely less, maybe 3-5.
Personally, there’s nothing I dislike more than having to scroll endlessly on a webpage.

Staff recommends five or so, actually. I cut mine down for that reason. Don’t pay attention to too many people, but they look at the stats and know what people will read and what they won’t.

thank you, I think I’ll cut mine down to five as well. I had it in the back of my mind for awhile. Some of my posts are long and use multiple photos.

You can also truncate how much of a post is shown on the main page by using Read More:

Don’t go hogwild with it, though. Some readers (like me) hate it and prefer to read the whole post on the main blog page.
