Hi,

I've totally new to wordpress and blogging in general and i only have limited skills in editing html and php code.

I've setup a blog here, http://www.adquick.co.uk/blog/ and i have tried to edit the theme to make it look like my website, and although everything looks fine, when i try to post a 2nd message, it automatically replaces the first post, so that theres only every 1 post on the blog page.

Please could someone let me know what i should check to make this work.

I know for sure that the other themes work fine so it must be something that i've edited to make it not work.

Logged in as admin, go to Options -> Reading. What do you have set for "Show at most:" (top option)?

thanks for the reply.

i've got it as 10. i put the default theme back and it was fine, when i did a 2nd post both posts showed up, so maybe its something i have done to the index.php file, but i'm not sure.

I'd agree - if it works in default, but not in your own customized theme then you probably want to check your theme's The_Loop and make sure you didn't break something.

hi, i've spent the last few hours trying to get my head round this, but i just can't. Could you have a look at the code below which is my index.php file, and see if i should make any changes to it, i know it looks a bit messy compared to how most people have their index.php files, but the layout worked perfect, i just can't get it to show all my blog posts.

HandySolo gave you a link. The answer is there.

Hint1: <?php if (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> is not right.
