If you’re using the WordPress platform to host your blog, you may have already noticed that the default setting for the blog page is to display only 10 posts at a time. While this may be convenient for some, it can be a bit of a hassle if you’re trying to display more than 10 posts on the blog page. Fortunately, it’s easy to adjust this setting so that you can display more posts.

The first step is to log into your WordPress dashboard. From there, click on “Settings” and then “Reading.” On this page, you should see a section labeled “Blog Pages Show at Most.” This is where you can adjust the number of posts that are displayed on the blog page. By default, it will be set to 10, but you can easily change this to any number you want.

Once you’ve adjusted the number of posts you want to display, click “Save Changes” and you should see the new setting take effect immediately. Now, when visitors view your blog page, they’ll be able to see more than the default 10 posts.

It’s worth noting that if you’re displaying more than 10 posts on the blog page, you may need to adjust your theme’s “Pagination” setting as well. This setting allows you to specify how many posts are shown on each page. For example, if you’re displaying 15 posts and the pagination is set to 10, the blog page will be split into two pages, each with 10 posts.

By following these steps, you should be able to easily adjust the number of posts that are displayed on the blog page of your WordPress website. This will allow you to display more than 10 posts at a time, giving your visitors more content to explore.
