  Hi there. I’m using the Illustratr theme, and am having difficult displaying more than 10 Portfolio posts on my front page. As soon as I do, it creates another page and adds a ‘Previous’ link to view it.

  I’ve tried increasing the amount of posts per page to 15 under Settings and Writing, but doing that doesn’t seem to affect the Portfolio?

  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Thanks!

  Hi Andrew,

  You can change the number of portfolio items in a separate area:

  Create a Portfolio Website

  I’ve adjusted it to 15 for you, but feel free to change it if needed.

  @dcoleonline,

  Confusingly, even the setting that determines the maximum number of portfolio projects to the display is found via the WP Admin dashboard panel at Settings > Writing > Your Custom Content Types > Portfolio projects, the Writing Settings support page includes nothing at all about the “Custom Content Types” settings for portfolios and testimonials. Also, the Calypso Writing Settings page does not include the setting for the maximum number of projects to display, but does include an unrelated “Posts Per Page” setting.

  Correction:
  “even though the setting…”

  @musicdoc1: Thanks for pointing that out. We’ve added a section to the end of that guide for these.

  There’s actually work being done to bring this to Calypso. :)

  I was so confused as to how you did it! I’ve never gone into the WP admin section before, didn’t know it existed.

  Thanks very much!
