I love the new Summary Block. And I would like to use it to let a visitor browse through excerpts of my blogposts before they dive into the posts themselves - especially the carousel option is extremely suitable for that.
Bummer: when you try to implement this feature the number of blogposts that you can show is limited to 30.
Would anyone now if the 30-items-limit is overridable with some piece of code that could be injected somewhere?
I know that if you use blog excerpts in the regular way, the number of posts to be displayed is unlimited. But the way in which you can display them is not. And with the new Summary Block you have so many nice options for customisation...
I also understand that I could implement different Summary Blocks, one after the other, each set up to cover a different time period of a blog.
But it would be so much better to a have one nice, clean carousel (for instance) to cover all the posts. And since the Summary Block is especially set up to deal with blogs (among others), one would expect to have an 'unlimited option' in the first place, no :-)...?
Anyway: I don't know anything about code except how to copy and paste it, so if somebody would have a solution: a step by step guide for implementing it would be extremely welcome :-) :-)...
I'd love to have this option but not for a blog but for products' listing- summary block gives a lot of useful options (like grid/list layout) and limitation to 30 pcs is killing me:(
There are two workarounds for this issue. The first is far from ideal but can work in certain circumstances. You can break down your gallery/blog/events into different categories/tags and then add mul
Agreed - this is a huge limitation for a platform advertised as a blogging tool. Without being able to increase the amount (and hopefully at the same time toggle a pagination addition) is like trying
