I am looking to change the format that my posts appear on my homepage in the Collective theme. Ideally I would have two posts on the top row and four on the bottom. Thank you!

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

I can’t tell which bit you’re referring to as your blog is currently set to private and it’s not obvious from the theme preview page which sections you are talking about. Could you invite me to view your blog so I could take a look at how you have things set up?

As this is a premium theme you might also want to try asking in the theme forum where the theme author looks to be active (and helpful)!

@foxcompanies, The top section can be made to show only 2 posts with the following CSS. The first and second rule hide the 3rd and 4th posts and the last rule sets the width of the posts to 50%.

To display additional posts on the home page below the top section, like on the demo page, go to Appearance > Customize > Theme and in the “home News Category pulldown select the category you wish to appear below the top section. I would suggest using a different category than what is used for the top section.
```
.row .four:nth-child(3) {
    display: none !important;
}
.row .four:nth-child(4) {
    display: none !important;
}
.row .four {
    width: 50%;
}
```
You can learn more about setting up Collective on the Collective documentation page.
