Currently, the posts on my blog opening page are visible for, it seems, the past 60 to 90 days. I would like the main page to display the posts for only 15 or, at the most, 30 days. Where might I find the controls to do that?

BTW, I tried the directions found at http://demo.blogharbor.com/blog/_archives/2004/6/3/82528.html
and I'm still seeing posts from early October.

Thanks,

Remember that the "By Days" Paging Type sets your blog to display the most recent X days that had posts, not the posts from the most recent X days.

So if you are using the "By Days" Paging Type, and you set it to 30, you will see the most recent 30 days that had posts, not the most recent 30 days...

This makes sense because you can set the "By Days" Paging Type to a low number like 7, and not have to worry that your Main Page would become blank if you didn't post in the last week...

Make sense?

Thanks, John, for the very fast reply and the explanation. Yes, I now understand.
