Selecta – change post # displayed?

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’m not sure if this is possible and I couldn’t even figure out the terminology needed to search the forum for a similar thread. Basically, I’m using Selecta for a portfolio. I want to limit the number of “latest posts” displayed on my home page to 1 but every time I do that, it also changes the number of posts that pull up when trying to view posts by category. I want people to be able to click on a category and see every post with that category (at the moment, I think the top amount is 5) WITHOUT having 5 show on my home page

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

    Whether or not full posts are displayed on Categories Pages and Archives pages is theme dependent ie. it’s coded into the template and we cannot edit templates or themes. http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/editing-themes/

    In the majority of themes, posts on the category or the archive pages show up just as they do on the main posts page in the blog and the number displayed is also the same. (See this page > Settings > Reading and note how many posts you choose there sets it for all). But in some themes only the beginnings of posts are shown, and in a few themes you only get titles or thumbnails. See here for a theme list of themes that may display the way you want > Category/archive pages: full posts or not http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/03/25/full-posts-in-archive-pages/

    Ok, that’s what I was afraid of, thank you! I’m working on hosting my page elsewhere so that I can get in and edit the theme itself but the designer of the theme did a poor job of packaging it for installing outside of WordPress.com unfortunately so I may have to hunt for a different theme. Thank you!
