Why is My Blogger Blog Showing Only One Post on the Homepage? Here is a fix

There comes that time you noticed that your blogger blog is displaying only one post on the homepage, when it is supposed to be showing far more than one.
If you have encountered that, then thank your God for finding your way in here.

There are two main reasons why your blogger blog will display only one or sometimes two posts on the homepage.

The first cause is that you or someone else has tempered with the number of post settings from the setting section of your Blogger dashboard and might have changed it to 1 post.

If that is the case, then just head to the Number of Posts section of your Blogger dashboard that is located at Settings>>Post and Comment and change the number of post from 1 to the desired number that you will want to see on your blog homepage.


The second cause which we are going to be laying emphasis on is caused by Auto-Pagination.

Auto-pagination can easily occur as a result of a very long blog post, the size and number of images used on a particular post and also the method used in inserting those images to your post.

Out of those reasons given above, the most common of all is the image size, which is mostly as a result of the method used in inserting the image.

When you use drag-image-from-web and drop method to insert image to your blog post, sometimes the sizes of those images can be so huge that you will not notice that.


So it is always advisable that whenever you are inserting image to your blog post, you should adopt the right channel, which is making use of the image insert tool also located at the top of the blogger text editor window.

Now as result of that common reason, your blog is now showing only one post on homepage, how do you go about fixing it?

You can actually fix the issue of only one post homepage display in two different ways;

One is either you go to that particular post with the image that you added by drag-and-drop method and remove the image, then re-insert again using the right channel described above.

Secondly you can just head straight and edit the last post you made by inserting a jump-break after the first paragraph.


The jump-break is an editor tool that can also be found at the top side of the Blogger editor window; to use the jump-break, just place your cursor on where you want it to break your post  (in this case, we said immediately after the first paragraph) and click on the jump-break icon.

You don’t need to start inserting the jump break on all your previous posts, just do it on your most recent post which apparently was the post you made before you encountered the only one post on homepage issue.

Visit your blog after you have made that change and updated it and you will then see multiple posts on homepage just the exact way it ought to be.

    1. Hi Gurusline,

      Just as we have stated, there are many reasons that could cause that and we have just checked your blog and noticed that you have only 2 posts displaying on your homepage and we believe that you want to show more.

      Now first of all, we noticed that you are using Firefox to post your article and hence the error (Normal 0 false false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE) that you see on the post snippet of the first post on your homepage.

      To prevent such error, it will be advisable to be using Chrome as your preferred browser since you are on Blogger third party template.

      In some instance, solving that problem can also assist solve the only 2 posts display on homepage.

      However, if you think that you are not guilty of what you have read the tutorial post above, then other way that can work out is this;

      If you use Microsoft word to edit your posts, and thereafter you copy your posts from Word to your blogger edit window directly without clearing formats, it could also result in that 1 or 2 posts showing on your homepage.

      Now, what you should do if you have been doing that is this; in your next post, when you copy from word to blogger edit window, make sure to highlight all the content and use the clear format tool at the top of the blogger edit windows toolbar to clear Microsoft word format - or you can easily achieve that with Ctr+Shift+V while pasting from word to blogger edit window

      By so doing, it could also solve your problem.

      You don't need to go back to all your posts, just do it on a new post that you will publish and your problem could be solved.

      After which, the number of posts that you have set to display on your homepage would be restored.
