    Hello,

    I am a little confused why I am only seeing 5 posts in the admin menu. I have created a custom post type called “balls” and I’ve placed 6 posts in it. But it only shows 5, and then it overflows to page 2.

    I’ve clicked ‘screen options’ and set the amount to display to 20 (that’s the default), but it still cuts off at 5 posts.

    What can I do to solve this?

    Hi.
    Looks like you have other plugins what change count of posts.
    Types plugin have not any functions what allow to change count of post in admin panel.
    So, this is or WP settings, or some external plugin.

    I’m marking this as resolved, as this is most likely not an issue with Types. If you can reproduce this with just Types and no other plugins, please let us know.

    Sorry, I forgot about this topic.

    I only just today got around to finding the fix – turns out that the Elegant Themes theme I was using for WordPress had a bit of code in it that altered the query in such a way that only custom post types were affected in this way. So it’s not a problem of this plugin, it’s Elegant Themes that’s messing up, I think.

    I believe the code was intended to limit the amount of posts displayed on the webpage, but instead altered the maximum amount of posts shown on custom post types created via Types.

    In the Elegant Themes ‘Theme options’ screen there is an option called “Number of Posts displayed on Archive pages” that can be set. An unfortunate side-effect is that it forces the dashboard to only show that amount of posts – but ONLY on the custom post types, the normal posts and pages are fine.

    Simple solution: set that number and the dashboard will follow.
