Hi there I am using Integrity and wish to have more than three blog posts (featured images) appear on my home page. Is this possible with some custom code?
Many thanks Steve

Hi,

From your WordPress dashboard, go to Settings > reading and increase the number of blog pages show at most.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Thank you but I should have explained myself better. I am using a shortcode for ‘Recent Posts’ and want to show more than the three that is currently visible – actually I would like to show a block of 6. How might I go about that?

many thanks Steve

Hey Steve,

Thanks for writing in.

As you have already stated, this is not currently possible with the [recent_posts] shortcode, although we are aware that some people would like to see this in future versions of the plugin and we have made note of it to investigate this moving forward. Would you settle for a workaround that isn’t shortcode based (since it’s not possible at this time), but based off the shortcode styling to achieve this? You would need to implement some custom PHP scripts by modifying various templates via a child theme for your site. This would also change the construction of the rest of your page potentially as you cannot add in PHP via the WordPress editor screen.

Recent posts shortcode is limited to 4 posts only. But you could use it multiple times and using offset.

[recent_posts count=”4″ orientation=”horizontal”]
[recent_posts count=”4″ orientation=”horizontal” offset=”4″]

This will show 8 posts, from 1 to 4, then 5 to 8. You can read more about Recent Posts shortcode here : http://theme.co/x/demo/integrity/1/shortcodes/recent-posts/

On Cornerstone you can use two instance of Recent post element then Offset the second with 4 so it would start at fifth newest post.

Hope this helps.

Let us know your thoughts when you have a chance, thanks!
