After designing around the default six, I began losing the last element.

I followed the instructions for editing the child theme functions file recommended on other posts. Forcing the rewrite of featured content seems to have helped but I then have to manually:
– deactivate all plug-ins,
– toggle the customizer from grid to slider (with plug-ins off),

I can get the 6th element to reappear on the local copy (Reactivating plus-ins or not doesn’t seem to matter.)

I noticed that even after syncing DBs and transferring the entire parent and child theme folders I couldn’t get it working on the testing server. Caches cleared, checked multiple browsers.

Repeating the above steps got it working on the remote BUT — as feared — changing out which posts are featured reverts it to broken. This would require someone at the admin level to manually repeat these steps every time they wanted to change the home page features.

As a side tangent, but possibly important, it appears some part of the header is being blocked in the process as well: my page/post CSS is now broken (main-content area shifted up, too wide etc.) but I haven’t gotten beyond the other issue to dig into that yet.

This has been going on for 2 weeks now… running out of ideas.

I just want to increase the max posts for each page/tab to about 20. Newbie to this and I am just working on this as a volunteer project for youth baseball.

Very close to what I want it to do, just want to eliminate the duplication.

“Max posts” defaults to 5000. Older posts will be deleted if this threshold is broken.

Which posts are deleted? Any posts on the main tags blog? Or only posts that have been copied from other blogs using the plugin?

Appreciate any clarification.

I am on shard hostgator hosting and wondering if I need to upgrade to dedicated server for such capacity. Will it help to use wp super chache?

I have created 5 successful WordPress sites but never anything this large. Does anyone have an suggestions?

This is my issue. My index page is a grid of ten post thumbnails, i.e., 2 rows of 5. On the homepage, I have a feature post and then 9 regular posts, for a total of ten posts. For this to work, in the reading panel I have to set “blog pages to show at most” to 9 because, apparently, the feature post (which is in its own loop) doesn’t count toward the max posts.

Which is fine until I click the next_posts link. Now the feature post goes away (which is what it should do) and I’m left with only 9 posts and a broken grid (a row of 5 and 4, instead of two rows of 5).

Is there a way to alter the max posts according to whether you’re paginated or not?

Thanks.

I’m currently trying to figure out how to fix up my home page.

What I want to do is show only 1 post per category (the newest post). The catch is that I have more than 10 categories and I only want to show 10 posts. I know it’s possible, but probably difficult.

In other words, I only want 10 topics showing on my homepage, 1 post from each topic, without specifying any specific category. Kind of like:

Homepage on Monday-
Newest post from Category 10
Newest post from Category 3
Newest post from Category 6

Homepage on Tuesday-
Newest post from Category 21
Newest post from Category 12
Newest post from Category 1

Can anyone help me out with this?

Many thanks in advance for any who try,

Any help is greatly appreciated.

1. I have the following statement:
‘tag_slug__and’=>array($foo),
How do i change this to search for more than just $foo, say i want to search for $foo and $xyz ??

2. I am rewinding my posts, how can i set it to do the following: Display 5 posts max, 5 posts min. On top of this i want it to search for my tags as above and then display random posts for the other if it cannot find any posts? Atm i have this:

<?php rewind_posts();
query_posts(array(
‘cat’=>’1’,
‘tag_slug__and’=>array($foo),
) );?>

Now i just need to 1) Set it to display 5 posts
2) Display random posts where it cannot find posts with the tags
