Changing the the number of posts that are displayed in Divi blogs

Sometimes the blog module post number shown on a page needs to be different to the default number in Divi.

This post assumes you already have a blog added to your website.

There are many ways to customise the Divi blog module. By default, the Divi blog module shows 20 posts. The module is also set to show three columns. This blog will cover how to change the post number from 20.

 

Reasons to change the blog module post number.

  • As columns are in rows of three, multiples of three posts are often more aesthetically pleasing as they create a complete row. Usually, 6 or 9 are visible with the option to see the older posts below.
  • The blog posts may be a teaser row on a Home page, requiring only one row of posts.
  • Here the client uses the blog posts rather than a shop to show a catalogue of products. It is an excellent option if products are never for sale online. The opposite may also be a reason to edit the blog post module number, as in this example.
