Increasing The Number Of Posts To Download

By default, MarsEdit downloads the 10 most recent posts from your weblog. This number was chosen to minimize strain on your weblog server, and to reduce the amount of time it takes to refresh your weblog.

To increase the number of posts to a higher value:

  1. Open the Settings dialog for your weblog.
  2. Click the System tab.
  3. Change the number in the text field labeled Number of posts to download

Some systems restrict the number of posts to download, in which case the number you type here may be ignored.

Note: Unless you are confident that your system can handle larger numbers, a value between 10 and 30 is highly recommended. The larger the number, the larger the load placed on your weblog system. MarsEdit is not intended as backup software for weblogs. To backup your weblog, see the documentation for your weblog system.
