              1. Remember one thing you have to keep the post count same in your blog settings and pagination widget.

                There is a limit of 1mb from blogger side, only 1mb of images or text you can show in home page and you are exceeding that limit and that is the reason rest of the post is going on next page, there is not any solution, but you can try page break after 1st paragraph in every post, may be this will help.

              1. Remember one thing you have to keep the post count same in your blog settings and pagination widget.

                There is a limit of 1mb from blogger side, only 1mb of images or text you can show in home page and you are exceeding that limit and that is the reason rest of the post is going on next page, there is not any solution, but you can try page break after 1st paragraph in every post, may be this will help.

            59. hello, I bought the Publister Blogger Template and it looks great, thank you. I have a problem with some images not appearing for some blog posts. The images appear as a grey camera. However, it is inconsistent (i.e., the same post has an image in the main page listing but not in the /grid-small, /post-list or other areas). Am I doing something wrong? blog: www.TheLuminescent.org

              1)Ιf it is possible, by clicking on head image it leads to the home page (now it is do nothing).
              2)Ιf it is possible on mobile, on the Main menu the Link List work's by pressing and on the word (the name of link), not only by cliking on the small arrow on the right.
              3)How can l place the title of the main post above the image and not to the right as it is now?

              I use blogger as an amateur since google hosted it and you definitely have the best templates I have seen. Thank you!
