Question

In the wordpress admin you can set “Blog pages show at most” under Settings>Reading

Is it possible to get the value of that to use in my theme? Could I also alter its default setting from my theme pages without going trough the admin? (set it to 20 for example)

Thanks dor your help guys!

Answer 1

I think you’re interested in get_option( 'posts_per_page' );, which basically tells you what to look for in the wp_options table. You can find details here.

Also, if you want to change this option, you can do it with this.
