Can't set number of articles on homepage
5 replies · Started by Tom on February 4, 2023
I am trying to set the number of blog posts on my homepage to 10, which I've done in my wordpress settings. But it still shows dozens of pages on my homepage even after updating, clearing cache etc. My host provider suggested I reach out to you. Not sure what else to try. thanks in advance.
Hi there,
Any chance you can disable all plugins and custom functions except GP Premium and GenerateBlocks to eliminate conflicts from other plugins first?
Make sure to activate the parent theme if you are using a child theme as well.
Let me know 🙂
All plug ins disabled except generatepress and it still won't save the 10 posts for the homepage...my host is sending me back to you for other ideas. Thx
Just to confirm, is the home page set to display the latest posts?

If yes then can you activate a Twenty series WP theme to test?
Let me know :)
Thank you. I installed a WP 2021 theme, then made sure it was set to display latest posts and all plugins disabled. Still no luck.
Ok - my hosting provider figured it out! I had a bunch of "sticky" posts which I was not aware of. Took them off sticky status and all works as it should. Chalking this up to user error (which is often the case:) Thanks for helping me trouble shoot! Much appreciated.
No problem :)
