Blog post block does not show latest post
-
I have added the ‘blog posts’ block on my homepage, but I noticed that my latest blogs don’t show up there, it seems to be stuck showing older blogs. I tried creating a new page with the ‘blog posts’ bock and i see the same result. I also checked that my blogs are public and my older blogs are not sticky and i have not selected a particular category or tag. Can you please help figure out what might be wrong and tell me a way to get my latest blog shown up using the ‘blob posts’ block.

Hi there,
This is because you have the Post Carousel block on the same page.
You have that block set to display the 24 most recent posts, and if you look carefully, you’ll see that the first post in your blog posts block, Chakka Varatti, is the 25th post on your site.
In other words, the blog post block is displaying the most recent post on your site, excluding those already being shown on that page in another block. This is by design, so the same post doesn’t appear multiple times on the page.
So if you want the blog posts block to show your most recent posts, you need to remove the carousel block. Alternatively, change the carousel block’s settings so it only shows the most recent 3, maximum 5 posts, so the blog posts block can also display more recent posts.
