  Hi,
  All of my posts are not showing up in my Bloglovin feed. I have more posts then it is extending to, and I’m not sure if I need to changed something in my RSS feed, or why my older posts aren’t transferring? The link is https://www.bloglovin.com/blogs/wayfarerkate-13718985.
  Also, some of the pictures are showing up blurry- although I’ve changed the resolution size. Is there any way to fix this?

  Hi Kaitlyn,

  All of my posts are not showing up in my Bloglovin feed. I have more posts then it is extending to, and I’m not sure if I need to changed something in my RSS feed, or why my older posts aren’t transferring?

  I’m wondering if this might be a limitation on the Bloglovin’ side. Currently, if you checkout the last post in your feed, you’ll notice that we’re sending all of your posts:

  http://wayfarerkate.com/feed/

  Here’s a screenshot of that last item “Yi Ping Lantern Festival”:

  Meanwhile, Bloglovin’ is stopping at “Ethical Elephant Camps”. Your Reading Settings are also set correctly to show 50 posts:

  I couldn’t find anything on the Bloglovin’ support documents to indicate that they stop at a certain number. Could you possibly check with them to see if they know why they aren’t showing more of your posts?

  Also, some of the pictures are showing up blurry- although I’ve changed the resolution size. Is there any way to fix this?

  My main suggestion would be to upload the photos in larger sizes. For example, the featured on this post is roughly 800×300:

  https://wayfarerkate.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=521&action=edit

  Maintaining the dimensions there and shrinking it to an appropriate size is tough. Uploading a larger photo may help. For example, your post here has a featured of around 800×400, and that didn’t turn out quite so blurry:

  Alright, thanks so much for your help. I will change the sizing on those photos and check with blogloving to see why my posts are not showing up.

  It also isn’t refreshing when I make changes- so I’m assuming maybe it has something to do on their end? Thanks for your help!

  You’re referring to when you updated a blog post (edit it after publishing)? That should cause the post within your feed to update. It would require them to “refresh” the feed though. Refreshing the page doesn’t show the update?

  I’m interested to hear what they have to say about the feed item number! If it’s something we can fix, please let me know.

  Yes. I changed the pictures on multiple posts to combat the blurriness. I also recently changed the RSS feed to 50 pictures, but that has not shown up either. The entire feed is just not refreshing. I will let you know if when I hear back. Thanks!

  It may take a little bit for the pictures to update. I’m guessing that doesn’t force a new update to your RSS feed like a new post would. If you could let me know what they say regarding the 50 items, I would appreciate it!
