- 1). Log in to your WordPress admin area. Click "General" from the menu bar at the left side of the screen, then click "Reading." This section controls various settings relating to how your visitors read the content of your site.
- 2). Navigate to the "Blog pages show at most" option. In the text box next to it, replace whatever number is currently listed with the number "2" (without quotes). This will show two blog posts in all archive and index pages, assuming there are two or more posts to display. Navigation links will also appear, allowing your visitors to browse through older posts, two at a time. Click "Save Changes" when you're done.
- 3). You can display these posts in full, or just a snippet. By default, full posts are displayed, so if this is what you want, you don't have to take any further action. If you want excerpts, go to each of your posts and access the HTML editing mode. Type "<!--more-->" (without quotes) where you want the excerpt to end. On your blog, a "More..." link will appear, offering the reader the opportunity to read the full post.
- 1). Log into WordPress, then click "Plugins," followed by "Add New."
- 2). Type "cbnet Different Posts Per Page" (without quotes) in the Search box and press "Enter." Find the plugin from the search results list, and then click "Install Now," located just beneath it. When the plugin has installed, click "Activate Plugin."
- 3). Click "DiffPostsPerPage," which appears under the "Settings" menu. When the options screen loads up, you'll be able to customize the pages as you please. Check the box of the page you want to edit, then type "2" (without quotes) in the relevant column. Click "Save All" when done.
