  I have tried to list all posts on the sidebar, but when I set the number above 50, it automatically resets to 50 and displays only that number of posts. Is there any way to over-ride this and display all posts. Thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  There is no means of increasing the number of posts displayed by the Recent Posts widget beyond 50 which is already generous to the point of being excessive.

  Staff provided this reason for reducing the number of titles that appear in the Recent Posts widget:

  There were some fatal errors and timeouts in cases where a blog loaded an extremely large number of posts in the Recent Posts widget or Posts per page setting (in Reading Settings). https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/problems-with-widget-recent-posts?replies=16#post-1032040
