Increasing The Number Of Posts To Download

By default, MarsEdit downloads the 30 most recent posts from your blog. This number was chosen to minimize strain on your blog server, and to reduce the amount of time it takes to refresh your blog.

To increase the number of posts to a higher value:

  1. Select the blog you want to configure from the Blogs list in the main window.
  2. Click the gear button below the list, and select Edit Settings.
  3. Click the System tab.
  4. Change the number in the text field labeled most recent posts on refresh.

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, be careful with this setting. The larger the number, the larger the load placed on your blog system. MarsEdit is not intended as backup software for blogs. To backup your blog, see the documentation for your blog system.
