Many thanks Hannah,
I the meanwhile I extended my search on the Internet, and have come to the conclusion that this has more to do with WordPress’ standard behavior rather than the theme’s. There seem to be some pagination solutions which envolve php coding, which I do not want to get lost in.
So, I have changed my design.
Now, I have limited the home page to display only six of my newest items and added a link at the bottom for visitors to click on to go to the complete portfolios page. Actually, this also prevents visitors to have to load all of the items up front even if they are not interested that much. So I consider this problem solved ??
Again, many thanks for the info.
Kind regards,
Arifi
