Page numbering, two-columned footer

Hi goldcrest,

thanks for using Tuto WordPress theme.

I would like to edit number of posts shown on the main page before page numbering activates. It currently shows 6 latest posts, is that editable?

Sure, this option is available in WordPress by default. You can set the number of posts per page in your WordPress dashboard under Settings => Reading => Blog pages show at most.

Also, how can I change footer style – I want to have a two-column footer instead of three-columned like it’s by default.

That isn’t possible out of the box. But if you are familiar with coding, you could for example create a custom child theme and then customize the theme as you like.

You could either customize the file footer.php or modify the columns in the footer accordingly with CSS customizations.

For general information about the theme configuration, please have a look at the instructions in the theme documentation.

Thanks for your answer, I have some experience in coding and I have a solid understanding of how things work, but I’m still learning. I’ve managed to complete both tasks.

If anyone else needs it, footer design can be changed in footer.php:

<div class="mh-col-1-2 mh-widget-col-1 mh-footer-area mh-footer-1">

Class mh-col-1-2 is two-columned design whilst the default assigned class mh-col-1-3 is three-columned. Likewise, you can change it to four-columned by having all footer divs as class mh-col-1-4.

I guess there’s no harm in asking a few more questions in this thread, for starters, can you make post thumbnails always the same size when shown on main page?

…you can change it to four-columned by having all footer divs as class mh-col-1-4.

That’s not correct. You can’t add a fourth widget area in the footer by just changing HTML markup. The fourth widget area doesn’t exist and would need to be registered in WordPress first.

can you make post thumbnails always the same size when shown on main page?

What do you mean with this exactly? When you check the theme demo, you’ll notice that there are different sections on the main page and the post thumbnails have different size, which is supposed to be like that due to the different layout of each section.

If you mean that your images are not consistent in size, then you would need to regenerate your thumbnails.

My mistake there, got ahead of myself before trying it out.

Thumbnails are fine now, completely forgot to regenerate them after applying Tuto. I think that’s all for now, will update this thread if I need anything else.

Great support for now, thanks!
