Twenty Fourteen – displaying only 20 posts

    I’m helping a very non-tech performing arts nonprofit migrate from an old, hard-coded theme to a Twenty Fourteen Child theme. The primary changes in the child theme are colors and the addition of an additional menu in the footer. However, they are using a Static Front Page and a Posts Page for displaying posts in the categories of Performers and News.

    I have changed the Settings > Reading > Blog pages show at most to 75 posts, however, the Posts Page displays only 20 and there doesn’t appear to be any pagination to the rests of the posts. The very non-tech savvy nonprofit staff want all of the performers to appear on the Performers posts to appear on the Posts Page.

    I’ve looked at the content.php template & the category.php template, and can’t see what is preventing all 32 posts from displaying. The URL to the development site example is:
    [link moderated because of conflict with WordPress trademark policy]

    Can/would anyone tell me what I need to modify to display all of the Performers posts on the Posts Page?

    I’d appreciate the assistance. And if I can solve this issue, I believe I can get them moved to their Live Site and be done.

    Again, any suggestions or answers would be greatly appreciated.

    You currently seem to have 3 categories attached to those posts but are all 32 posts attached to one common category?

    If you have at this link: [link moderated because of conflict with WordPress trademark policy] – you get a different set of posts as you do on this link: [link moderated because of conflict with WordPress trademark policy]

    And yet a different set on this link: [link moderated because of conflict with WordPress trademark policy]

    I believe if you were to attach all of the 32 posts to one common category and then link to that you would have the results you desire. Unless you are using a plugin to control the output?

    I teach, through the local college, non-technical small businesses and nonprofits. The domain was set up way back in 2007 or 2008 and can’t be changed because too many former students still use it for their “sandboxes.” It is set to discourage search engines and isn’t a publicly promoted site. If it makes you feel any better, I probably will not be teaching any more WordPress classes after this academic year. You can commercialize it and kill with greed to your hearts content. Helping solve the problem would have been a much better use of your time and generated much better WordPress user experience and loyalty.

    @zulfikar Nore: Thank you so much for your help. There was indeed a plugin conflict. Deactivating the ReOrder Posts Within Categories plugin seems to do the trick. Will look further at the plugin to see if there’s anyway these folks can use it for another of their desires while displaying all of their performers and lineups. Alas, they are of an age that can’t grasp anything except a “printed page” design, but can’t afford a “webmaster.”

    Again, my thanks Mr. Nore.
