  Hello i need some help from theme developer, i have a posts loop command here it is :

  <?php 
  
        if(have_posts()) :
        	while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
  
        	<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
        	<p><?php the_content();?></p>
        	<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
  
        	<?php
        	 endwhile;
        	else:
        		echo '<p>Sorry, nothing found here</p>';
  
        	     endif;
           ?>

  i have sum total of 10 posts , now my front page displays 10 out of 10 posts , but i just want it to display only 5 out of 10 posts, the latest 5 that i posted, also i want to display them horizontally as well as vertically in boxes so that it just fits in the page nicely. Thanks!

  Hi @micropixelz,

  Please redirect your question to the WordPress.org Support Forums for support with theme development. I recommend starting here:
  Developing with WordPress Forum
  https://wordpress.org/support/forum/wp-advanced/

  You’ll need a WordPress.org account to post in the forums, so be sure to register for one here if you don’t have one already:
  https://login.wordpress.org/register

  Right now you’re in the WordPress.com Support Forums, which provides support for WordPress.com hosted sites only. The differences between between the two can often be confusing, so I also recommend reading more about that here when you get a chance:
