Hello,

How can I define the number of posts to display on the home page, between the First post and featured post?

Thanks,

C.

This is defined through the regular wordpress "Reading" options page in your /wp-admin/ – You can set how many posts are displayed on your index and blog pages. The theme will follow this setting.

Is it possible to keep a certain catagory of posts from displaying in the area between the first post and the featured post?

Hi Public,

This should be possible with a bit of editing, try this:

Open index.php template file for newsplus, and find


  <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

  <?php $count=0; while (have_posts()) : the_post(); if(!($firstpost == $post->ID)) : ?>


add the folowing line below above lines:

<?php if (in_category('30')) continue; ?>

replace the "30″ with whatever category ID number you want to exclude from the posts.

Ah, nice! Thank you. Very helpful.

Is there a way to keep headlines from getting cut-off in that same section between the top post and the featured banner?

And while you're at it, another foolish one…

How can I shrink the font size for the blog title in the header?  I need to fit a title 18 characters long.  Right now it cuts off the last 9 or so characters.  Is it possible to make all 18 fit?

Thanks again for your help.
