Reading Options — Posts Per Page

    It seems that the number you set under the Reading Options for the maximum number of posts to show per page causes a bug. Try viewing all of the entries you made in 2004 in one single page. Are you able to view all of them? Not me. I’m shown the last 35 entries made in 2004; 35 is the number I set under the Reading Options.

    I already tried switching to one of the themes that come with WordPress 1.5, to make sure my customized index file wasn’t the culprit. The problem was still there.

    Oh, you must set your options within a plug-in editor. Edit the php file itself. Change the following values to suit your needs:

    $posts_per[‘home’] = 4;
    $posts_per[‘day’] = 10;
    $posts_per[‘month’] = 10;
    $posts_per[‘search’] = 10;
    $posts_per[‘year’] = 999;
    $posts_per[‘author’] = 999;
    $posts_per[‘category’] = 999;

    This one does the same and has a nice admin page:

    (works with 2.0, too)

    is there a way i can show one page on the front but the succeeding pages (/page/2/, /3/, etc.) with multiple posts? i looked at the if-else site but it was a simple posts_per_page=1, which just shows the same latest posts on the next pages. the offset does not seem to work either. i have custom posts per page installed—does it do exactly the same job as custom query string?
