    Hi, why is there a limit on max posts being shown on the main page? What I mean is, there’s about 500 posts on my blog, but only about 160 is being shown?

      To solve this, you’ll have to add page break just after first image and some text in your posts. Page break or line breaks can be added like the photo shown below.

      http://prntscr.com/lk8c6z

      Just add this after some text and first photo in all the posts so that all your posts gets displayed.

        Also, one other thing is, how do I remove the “Reading” thing on the homepage? Is it possible to remove that?

        1. OddThemes avatar
          OddThemes

          In the Free version you can’t remove that. You’ll have to purchase the template then you can remove that.

          Thanks

            If I purchase the Premium version, how easy would it be to remove the “…Reading” function? Will it be just a few clicks here and there? And by the way, thank you for your responses.

    Oh and one last thing, if I purchase the Premium version, will I be able to mix what I currently have with the new codes? Or will I have to start again and tweak it?

    Hi, can I please ask why the page navigation is suddenly gone? What I remember doing last before that is I used google analytics. Is it possible that it caused it to be gone?

      Hello @aldrinrenzcruz:disqus, our support team can help you identify the problem causing but we only give support to premium version users. If you’re using Free version we’re very sorry, what you can do is take backup of the template and install it again. Thanks.
