    Currently in my blog homepage it shows only 8 posts and i want to show 14 posts on the homepage of my blog.

    So i clicked on Settings - Formatting. And changed the number of posts to show to 14. But it still shows only 8 posts. Heres a screen shot of what i did

    It says "at most". make sure you have atleast 14 posts in your blog first of all.

    none of the above answers are correct.. i finally found the answer.. its coz google is trying to reduce the loading time, so if there are posts that are too heavy it will NOT show all the posts.... but if ur posts arent too heavy (no pics and videos or any other fancy stuff) then it will show everything... I did a test with sum tiny posts with no pics and videos and it showed eveything for the same blog but when i publish my old posts that have videos and stuff it shows only 8 posts... heres a link abt that
