    I want to remove the navigation links at the bottom of the homepage because how i am doing this site there is no need for it. I only want the first 6-7 posts available from the homepage then i have all the posts on another page. Have it set up for all other posts to go onto another page just want to remove the navigation links from the main front page.

    I am using the Hueman theme.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    Thanks
    Josh

  • Hi Josh. Try adding the following css to a child theme style.css file or a plugin like Simple Custom CSS or Custom CSS.

    .pagination.group {
      display: none;
    }

    Used custom css and it worked like a charm, thanks alot

    is there anyway to exclude other pages on the site? That way it only applies to my home page but not others.

    This should set it on just the home page:

    .home .pagination.group {
      display: none;
    }

    worked thanks

    one more thing i have a page called Articles where all the posts go, the most recent 7 show on home page and all are accessible on other page, do you know how it will show 10 on page then have pagination to access the next 10 and so on.

    Take a look at Settings > Reading and set “Blog pages show at most” to 10.

    it was already set at 6, that only works for the home page…i am using categories to page plugin to get all the articles over to that page, that was the only way i could figure out easily.

    i have a page called Articles where all the posts go

    I’m not sure what you’re trying to accomplish here. Is this a page that is supposed to list all your posts? Can you post a link to your site? Thanks.

    Its for a non-profit magazine i want the front page to have the most recent articles, and articles page to have them all, but i would like 10 per page and have pagination links at the bottom

    I am using categories to page plug-in to get all the posts with category “stories” to go to articles page.

    sorry if i sound noobish, i am an IT person that is learning how to build the site with wordpress, that way its easier for them to manage after site is finished. this is the first time i have attempted to build a website.

    that is the website age im building

    No apologies needed. I was also there at one point. WP seemed a bit overwhelming at first but having an IT background at least gave me a conceptual understanding of what was supposed to happen. It was just a matter of becoming familiar with the “WP way”. There are many tutorials online that can help and working in the “dev” environment trying different options and configurations is one of the best ways to become familiar with the tools.

    So, to your question. I don’t think you need a plugin to accomplish what you’re trying to do. If your articles (posts) have a category of “stories”, WP will automatically build a page based on that category. When you create your menu you would add that category as a menu item. You could leave the menu item named “Stories” or name it something else. When the user clicks on “Stories”, WP builds the page with articles that have that category. The home page will still show x number of the most recent articles (based on the Settings > Reading option) and the theme will show the pagination at the bottom of the pages.

    I am trying to get all the posts labeled “stories” to show up in the Articles page on the right hand side bar, instead of using menu for it on the top. that way the user only has to look at the right side for the pages, and left side for the other stuff. Im not going to make any posts to go into the other pages, all the posts will have the same category and i want them to go into the Articles page, i dont want places all over that people have to click, just the right and left sides to navigate. my boss wants it simple and intuitive. I like how things were set up when i made a “stories” menu and i clicked on it, but i dont see any options to put everything of that category onto a certain page, that is why i used a plug-in. The plug in was not working exactly how i wanted it, just want a brief portion of the article and the main picture not the whole article shown. I sent a message to the developer and posted on the forum for that plug in about how to fix that but i have not heard anything.

    so if you know a way to get all of a certain category into that page and it looks like it does as a Menu item, that is what i am trying to figure out how to do that.

    that picture on the header is not what is going to stay there, i was just messing with different picture and file size to know how large to make a header picture to put there later.

    i guess this might be easier

    i can use menus for everything, and get rid of the right side bar completely. Then just make posts for about virkelig, contributors and staff, and the shop.

    is there a way to exclude posts from being on the front page, so if they add stuff to those categories they dont show up on the front page?

    You can still use the sidebar with the Custom Menu widget. Or, if the articles are going to be grouped by category, you could use the Categories widget. You can mix-and-match pages and categories on a menu. I don’t think you’d want to create posts for “About” or the other items. Those would go on static pages, whereas the category page is built dynamically when the user makes the menu selection.

    If you’re using a child theme you can create a function that will filter the posts on the home page. If you don’t want new posts to show up on the front page you could filter them by date to show the oldest posts first. Or you could add a specific category, like “homepage” to those posts that you want displayed, then filter the front page posts to include only that category. Lots of different filtering options as discussed on the WP_Query() Codex page.

    I dont have a child theme, i tried reading up on them to create one and got overwhelmed dont know any coding. I have a networking and pc hardware background. Networking for education and pc support working experience

    Creating a child theme with Hueman is pretty easy:
    1. In Theme Options click the Help tab in the upper righthand corner.
    2. One of the options in the list is to download a sample child theme. This downloads the theme zip file to your local computer.
    3. Install the new theme in your Admin panel by selecting Add New > Upload Theme > Choose File, then select the zip file you downloaded.
    4. Activate the child theme.
    You’ll now have a pre-configured child theme with a style.css file and functions.php file to which you can add customizations.

    If you go to the page now, i have menus and no sidebar…it looks ok IMO and i also like how it looks on a mobile device, my boss also likes how it looks on a mobile and he has not seen it on a computer yet
