Any Way to Display More "Latest Articles" on Organization Theme Home Page?

  Our org wants to be able to use the “Latest Articles” section of the Organization theme’s home page as an “Upcoming Events” list. Basically we just want each entry to be a single line; e.g., “🗓 June 3, 2017: 60th Anniversary Celebration.”

  The problem is that the page seems hardwired to display only the 3 latest entries. Inspecting the code, I see that each of the 3 rows is represented by a <div> within the parent <div class=”home-news”>. I realize that I probably can’t solve this problem with custom CSS. Are there any other work-arounds to extend this section out to at least 6 rows?

  Thanks for the assist.

  Hi there,

  I’m afraid the underlying code that controls this can’t be changed with CSS. The only way to change it to more rows would be to modify the theme’s PHP, but we don’t offer access to that on WordPress.com.

  We do have an Upcoming Events widget that you might consider using instead:
