Limiting Posts on Home Page in Hemingway Rewritten

    I have setup Hemingway Rewritten as a new theme on my blog, but it currently shows about 7 posts on the home page. I was looking through the .php and .css but wasnt able to find anywhere to limit the amount of posts showing- I have so many images in the posts that it causes all my mobile devices to crash so I’d like to limit it to showing a post or two. At the same time, I’m not sure if its tied to the recent posts widget, which I would like to show about 12 posts. I also tried altering the Settings > Reading menu to drop down the amount of posts shown at a given time but that had no effect.

    I was considering trying to create a page which in turn only exists to show the latest two posts, then having it go to that ‘static’ page instead of defaulting to showing the latest posts through the themes options.

    What do you guys think? I’d prefer to just set it as a value somewhere in the code.

    Thanks!

    Just an idea. If you set the max displayed posts at two at Settings > Reading, but you have 5 sticky posts, then you’ll have seven posts displayed on the front page.

    I think I found a work around using the custom post limit plugin- its about 3 years old but seems to be working just fine! I guess it’ll do it until I actually suck it up and learn .php

    This is the WordPress.COM support forum. There is no FTP access to WordPress.COM blogs and we bloggers cannot install any plugins. That’s possible on WordPress.ORG software installs only.

    Know that we are unable to provide support for any sites that are not hosted here at WordPress.COM, and our support docs do not apply to WordPress.ORG software installs.

    WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support forums.

    If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the Theme support forums there.
