Increase the number of posts shown on the home page

Sometimes, you might have enormous posts, and only want to show two or three on the home page.
Other times, you might have posts which are just videos, so you want to show a bigger number. Or maybe you need to increase the number so that the filter on your home page shows a decent number or results.

'Show at most' Setting

The Show at most setting is found under Settings => Posts and Comments => Show at most.

Change the Show at Most setting to show a different number of posts on the home page



Warning:
Changing this setting to a large number will slow down the load time for your blog! Blogger is pretty good at caching the results of a rendered page, but it still takes ten times as long if it has to load 50 posts versus loading 5. Change with caution!

Happy Blogging

Rotate my Blogger images

Image
Blogger-uploaded images can be rotated by modifying the url to include '-r90' (or 180, or 270). Take, for example, the image below. URL: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWVgBklYsvkxN7xwRlHuU8XWHdJTW7kpjJcEzMo2lD65tV4vwXuwHnPa3eiXZqUfpkdAYJMaTaPXO9RiEl1XY_tEfHWBEmBmnppNqP6_SovKyOe8gLd9-09TimKKdDZpIuMrjiPvg5hrOI/ s200 /IMG_2358.JPG If we switch the s200 to s200-r90 , we get the following image instead.

Remove the header image for posts in Emporio

The new Emporio template features a large, blurred-out copy of the featured image for a post as the header image. Some like this feature, some don't - here's how to remove it if you're not a fan! Head to Theme => Edit HTML Search for ' data:view.isSingleItem ' The code that you see should look something like this:  <b:if cond='data:view.isSingleItem'> <b:if cond='data:widgets.Blog.first.posts.first.featuredImage'> <b:include data='{ image: data:widgets.Blog.first.posts.first.featuredImage, selector: &quot;.bg-photo&quot; }' name='responsiveImageStyle'/> <div class='bg-photo-container'> <div class='bg-photo'/> </div> </b:if> </b:if> Delete the XML including the <b:if> tag code. Happy Emporio'ing!

Add snippets to the Emporio theme

Image
A lot of people love the image-focused look of the newer Emporio template. This article explains how to tweak your template's XML to add a short snippet to the Emporio posts - unfortunately, there's no easy way to add in snippets for Emporio, without customizing the markup. But, if you're feeling brave, head to: Theme -> Edit HTML -> Jump to Widget -> Blog 1 If you search for 'snippet-container', you'll come across: <div class='snippet-container r-snippet-container'> <div class='r-snippetized'> <data:post.title /> </div> <b:if cond='data:post.title != ""'> <div class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden'></div> </b:if> </div> Notice that it's just got the title. You could change it to add something like: <div class='snippet-container r-snippet-container'> <div class='r-snippetized'> <data:post.
