Latest Articles Feed – limit the number of posts showing

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 19

Hi,
We are using the default Newspaper demo page as our home page and have been able to customize everything except the latest articles feed that is at the bottom of the home page. It shows 11 articles – we want it to be just six. Any attempts I have made to reduce this to 6 only affect the # of posts that display on pages 2, 3 etc which you click on the page scroll at the bottom of the feed.

Here is what we have attempted to to do address this:

1. When editing the home page at the bottom – edit post loop settings / filters to limit post number to 6. This affects the loop pages but not the home page feed.
2. Tried to change settings using the td composer on the front end, but cannot access the feed.

We did not see where to change this in the theme panel.

Please let us know how to fix this. you can see the issue here: https://staging1.mycentralfloridafamily.com/

Open the page in the editor and scroll down until you see Homepage Latest Articles option. Expand it, click on Post loop settings, and scroll until you see Limit Post Number and change the number to what you want from there.

Hi This has been set to 6. It is not working which is why I filed the ticket.

Hi,

Either way should work, in the composer – https://www.screencast.com/t/8qPkHfPXSN
Or in the backend of the respective page – https://www.screencast.com/t/xY2JwmZHL

If the setting is saving properly and the page does not change, could be a caching issue. If those fields are empty the value from WordPress settings will be picked

Hi I have all those settings set to 6 and the cache has been cleared. Have you seen this before?

Can’t say I have, most unusual. The general setting also affects category loops, there it seems to have worked as it displays 6 posts

So this is happening only in the homepage it seems. What if you try to create a test page and select the latest template, does it work there?
