  Hi.

  Why is only my most recent post displaying on my home page (johnrichardkenny.com)? In Settings, Reading, it says there should be up to 10 posts displaying at a time.

  Regards

  John

  Hi John,

  It looks like you only have two posts published on your blog. However, I do see that you have quite a few pages.

  Please keep in mind that pages will not be published on your home page, or posts page. For more information on the differences between posts and pages, please see:

  Pages vs. Posts

  Hi evarlese,

  Thanks for your reply. The pages I set up are meant to function like those of a normal website. The question I asked relates to the two posts I posted. Only one of them displays on the homepage. When I look at the relevant section in the dashboard, it says there should be a maximum of 10 posts displayed on the homepage, but there’s only one of the two posts there.

  Best, John

  Hi this is actually a feature of the theme you chose. It’s more of a magazine-style theme, so it only displays the very latest as if it were a featured item.

  Hi macmanx,

  Aha! Now it makes sense. Many thanks for letting me know. I’ll try out other themes then.

  Best, John
