Multiple posts on Intergalactic 2 homepage

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’ve been using Intergalactic 2 for almost a year now, and for the life of me, I can’t figure out how to get multiple posts to display on the front page like we see in the demo of the theme. Any idea how to do this? I’m sure it’s simple and I’m just missing it, but it has become a major blind spot for me, and I’d love to have four or five posts visible before encouraging readers to go to my archive or his that Older Posts button. Thanks for your help!

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

  • Hi @billcoffin,

    I think I can see what might be happening here after looking at your site. It seems that your blog pages might be set to display only 1 post at most.

    To adjust this setting, you can go to you wp-admin dashboard.
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/dashboard/

    You can get there by simply appending /wp-admin to your site’s url. So in your case, it would be billcoffin.com/wp-admin

    From there, in the left sidebar head to Settings -> Reading.

    In this section you’ll find the “Blog pages show at most” setting. You can adjust how many posts you want displayed here.

    Hope this helps!

    Hi, Paulo! Thanks so much for your advice. That’s *exactly* what I needed to do. I feel like such a dunce, because I knew it was some simple functionality I was overlooking. But thanks for your feedback. Really appreciate it. :-)

  • You’re welcome, Bill! Yeah, there a quite a few things tucked away in the wp-admin dashboard that may not be so obvious to access at first, but I’m glad you got your problem solved. Happy blogging :)

  • Good news – just wanted to let you know that you no longer have to delve into WP Admin to find this setting, it’s been available in the regular dashboard for a while.

    Go to Settings > Writing. If you look under “Content types” you can adjust the number of posts per page:

  • Oh nice! I had no idea when that got moved there, but I’m glad you mentioned that. Thanks for the tip @kathrynwp Cheers :)
