5 posts not showing in category lists of posts.

I just installed Newsmag this morning. I have exactly 5 posts that do not display in each category list. It is odd that there are exactly 5 in each category. I can’t seem to see any rhyme or reason to it. Other than that, things are working smoothly. What could be the problem? Thanks!

Hello macksix,

Please provide your website URL so I can take a closer look. Also, please ensure that each post is part of your category if you want to bring it on your frontend.

Thanks for the message!

The URL is http://defiantamerica.com

If you look at the Economy category, there are only 2 posts showing out of 7.

As you can see, I have filtered the posts on Economy within the Dashboard and it shows all 7.

I also have cache turned off.

Now that my head is not fuzzy, due to lack of sleep learning this theme and visual composer, I see it is filtering the last 5 posts and I have seen those sorts of setting in the theme. I need to find if there is some global filter set.

Are those normally called the Archives? I see that in the browser tab it is called “Economic Archives” so that is maybe why it does not show the 5 latest? Is an Archive supposed to be different than listing the posts in a category?

Hi,

The default sort order on category template is by “latest” and there is no option to change it from theme settings. There is a filter option in frontend so your users can sort them differently – https://www.screencast.com/t/ORAqG8VDshz

Yes, it is normal and you can control title and meta using Yoast Seo plugin – https://yoast.com/wordpress-seo/

Thanks!

The last 5 “latest” post in the category are not being shown. Why?

Every category is this way.

Sorry, that is not what I mean. The last 5 recent posts in any category do not show. Even on test with demo data and setting, the 5 recent posts do not show. Please look at screenshots above. It is clear there are 7 posts in Economy but only the last 2 are shown when I view the Economy category.

Nevermind, I see if there are the top 5 posts showing above, that is where they show. I was not seeing that the top 5 were for that category, I thought is was the top five recent for all categories. My dumb! 😀

Thanks guys!

All better now.
