One change that has occurred on my blog page in the past couple months is the reduction of posts per page from seven to one. When I originally set up my blog page layout I thought that it would be nice to access seven days of posts at one time. However, when I began doing my music posts and adding playlists to each of those posts, I discovered that all playlists on that page were playing simultaneously, resulting in a cacophony of musical mish mash. I immediately went to the one post per view format to eliminate multiple playing playlists.
Personally, I enjoy being able to scroll down the page to look at the most recent previous posts. On the other hand, its not that big of a deal for me to click on the "older posts" option or to click onto archived titles if they appear on the sidebar.
Do you prefer more than one post per page view? Or do you like having just one post on a page? How many posts does one see when they go to your blog? Do you ever take the time to look at the older posts if they are not on the same page? How frequently will you look at archived posts?
Next week on Blog Boggled I will be looking at the topic of music playing on blogs.
After reading Dezmond's comment, as well as some of the others, I changed my posts per page back to my original preferred 7 per view. I will probably have to back through and fix some of my earlier posts that have automatic playlists and turn those off, and in the future avoid auto playlists. Thanks for all of the input so far. The beauty with this blog is that I can continue to modify it if need be.
This Is Me--2024 A to Z Theme
My A to Z Themes in the past have covered a range of topics and for 2025 the theme is a random assemblage of things that are on my mind--or that just pop into my mind. Whatever! Let's just say I'll be "Tossing It Out" for your entertainment or however it is you perceive these things.
