Displaying More ‘Recent Posts’ Links in WordPress
Wednesday, March 11th, 2009I desired to increase the number of ‘Recent Posts’ links in my blogs’ sidebars. The default in WordPress 2.7.1 is 15 links but I wanted 100 to appear. To do that, I made the following change:
File to change: $WP_ROOT/wp-inclues/wigits.php
Find the wp_widget_recent_entries() routine in the file given above.
Modify the following code snippet from…
else if ( $number > 15 )
$number = 15;
to
else if ( $number > 100 )
$number = 100;
Don’t forget to upload your modified file and to change the count of links to display in the admin pages of the “Recent Posts” widget for your WordPress site.
