Logo size and number of blog posts on home page

Hey,
Both of these requests would require some code changes. I like the idea though and will work to make these possible options in upcoming theme versions.

As for right now I can try and walk you through the changes needed but it will require that you can access the site via ftp and paste in some code or i can manually do it for you if you email me your ftp and site information. You just won’t want to upgrade till the version with these features is released.

Thanks.

Hi, I was wondering if you could advise me on increasing the amount of blog posts (latest posts) on the front page?
I’ll be able to update the coding via ftp

Ideally I’m looking to have 6+.

Thanks!

I have a suggestion for this element, it would be brilliant if you could set the ‘Latest Posts’ section to display a specific category.

Working on the update right now. should have it out in the next two days.

Thanks for the suggestion I will be adding it in.

New version has an option for the logo to be centered and gives you the ability to have up to 8 posts on the home page recent posts section. You can download here:

Hi Kadence Themes,

I love the front page, but I’m wondering if there’s a way for the full blog post to show, instead of a preview?

I want some text on the front page, but I can’t see any other easy way to have it outside a blog post (and don’t want to limit myself to a static page).

Thanks!

Hey wrylilt,
This is currently not an option. I may consider something like this for the future. For the present my apologies.

Where can we adjust the number of posts on the homepage through the code (not the slider)? I’d like to show more than 8 posts.

Im not sure if it actually got answered, but I need to know how to change the logo size. Im assuming it can be adjusted from in the css? https://www.nil8gaming.com is the site. As you can see, my logo is HUGE. Please help? Thanks!

Just scanning through, it looks like you may be able to modify the following (I like using Jetpack’s Custom CSS feature):

.col-md-12, .span12, .woocommerce form .form-row-wide, .woocommerce-page form .form-row-wide {
width: 100%;
}

And since this thread was brought up again, I just want to mention that I was able to modify the number of posts on the home page by tweaking line 7 of wp-content/themes/virtue/templates/home/blog-home.php to swap the variable with a number constant (in my case 12). Just keep in mind that the slider in the theme options will no longer work for changing the number once you do it (perhaps someone else can find how to modify the slider max value directly, but this is the first solution I came upon and it works for my purposes), and you’ll have to retweak it after every theme update. Looked like this:

<?php global $virtue; if(isset($virtue[‘home_post_count’])) { $blogcount = ’12’;} else { $blogcount = ’12’; }

Thanks for the quick reply! Im new to wordpress and this is killing me!
So, I can just add that into the custom css box in appearance > theme editor?
Also 2 other things, while Ive got you here and I know Im going to get yelled at for posting off topic, but…

1) My theme didnt come with a revolution slider plugin. Anyone know why it wouldnt?

2) In the virtue theme preview, it shows the blog posts in nice looking boxes. I cant for the life of me figure out how to get mine from landscape to those boxes! I thought the theme would come looking like that and I could just edit it.

Again your help is incredibly helpful! This is an amazing theme and I just want to be able to unlock everything I can do with it! Thanks!

It’s been awhile since I set mine up. Try making a second post and see if that squishes the first one, since it’s a two column design. Seems I may have gone to Appearance>Customize and then done some things there. BTW, you have a blank slide in your slider, which is why the slider disappears and the content moves around every so often. Wish I could be more helpful on those last questions ??

Hey chad and sylvestercomputerguy,
I’m happy to help but your going to need to post your own thread, hijacking a thread 9 months old, which has already been resolved makes no sense.

Sorry, I have a bad habit of just trying to help out when someone asks, regardless of how/where they asked. That being said, chad’s hijacking of this thread did prompt me to add to its relevance, as I figured out the answer to my earlier question to you about putting more than 8 posts on the front page, which remained unanswered:
