    hello
    I have 6 posts (max) showing on each page…
    Would like to change it to 7.

    Usually go to settings for reading and it is a matter of changing the number choice, then saving update.

    I have a prob with FORBIDDEN when i attempt… (recently upgraded to 286 and this prob happens since)… will find ressolve for this in time, but for now would like to:

    Alter the number by file-select via my ftp software access to server…
    Q:… Which file needs to be changed?

    thanks for any thoughts

  • Stephenn, I would guess that setting is stored in your database, maybe in the options table.

    It’s in the WP-options table in the posts_per_page column. Change that from 6 to 7.

    Use portable PHPmyAdmin to change the value.

    Upgrade to 2.9 first though it might do something to let you on the settings page in the backend.

    ok thanks… database it is…

    I have upgraded to the 2.9… (what a great idea the auto update is)!
    unfortunately it did not ressolve the access prob… worth effort, appreciate thinking.

    I have tweeked the number in the db… and the deed is done (and shows up in the admin settings-for-reading, as if I’d done it there… Sorted!

    Thanks very much for pointers.
    I have another support thread on the go to try and resolve, why i get the FORBIDDEN page when i try it through usual admin interface… hopefully will resolve, that too.

    Cheers very
    Stephenn
