    Hi Guys

    I’m working on creating a wordpress theme for a site. I am stuck on making the page naviagtion work and also how to restrict the number of posts that can appear on the main page.

    I’d greatly appreciate help in:

    1) How to restrict the number of posts in the main page
    2) How to the page navigation bar (bottom) work

    Thank You.

    Under Settings, click on Reading. Then change the value for “Blog pages show at most” to the preferred number.

    Wow Thank You Brevityness I didn’t know such an option existed !

    I have 5 posts and I want only 4 to show on the main page, so I went and changed that setting you mentioned to 4 > Now I am missing one, which is alright, but the Navigation Buttons at the bottom are NOT WORKING ??

    How do I get them to work ? What code do I need ?

    Thanks.

    is that a plug-in you are using or is that just static html for the buttons? If you need a plug-in that will achieve the same affect try referring to wp-page-numbers. You can style it to your liking and it has great customization features.

    Hi apaulfx

    No it is just static html for buttons !

    Should I use the plugin ? I’m always scared of using plugins ??

    Thanks Brevityness and apaulfx

    I used the plugin and now it is sorted. ??

    I use WP Pagenavi. It’s a very popular page navigation plugin. I recommend you trying that out.
