  Hello my Blog Post Block does not have the same settings as shown on the demonstration page here https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/blog-posts-block/
  Importantly I am not able to define the number of posts shown – can anyone explain why my display is different please?

  Hi @highlandobjects, could you link us to an affected page?

  I noticed your front page has a blog posts block; when I click on it the number of posts option is offered in the block settings. If you’re not seeing that, could you let us know what you’re seeing instead?

  Many thanks, supernova – I couldn’t make it work whatever I did. If you use the default option of autoloading blog posts you can see the tick box, but if you select the blogs to display it just will not go beyond 10 whatever you do so I have simply changed the page to a different format. More labour intensive but I think I prefer the option I have built now, but sad the functionality didn’t work as described

  Hi there, looking at your site there’s an issue with the navigation.

  If I look at your site’s front page highlandobjects.wordpress.com and scroll down a bit, I see a Blog Post block with three posts in it. But if I click Blog in the top nav, I’m taken to your /blog-2/ page where there is only a single post.

  What have you set up in your Customizer>Homepage as your site’s Blog Page?

  If you are referring to a different site, please let us know the address.
