 * I have set on my page to show the recentposts.
 * I have this:
 *     ```
       <h3>New Articles</h3>
       <ul  class="recent-posts">
       <?php query_posts('showposts=10'); ?>
       <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
       <li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
       <?php endwhile; ?>
       </ul class="recent-posts">
       ```
   
 * If i change (‘showposts=10’) with (‘showposts=20’) it really shows 20 posts 😀
   but some of them repeats 2-3 times.
 * How can i make it show last 20 or 30 posts without to repeat them 2-3 times?
 * Or “maybe” does they show 2-3 times because i have them posted 2-3 times same
   articles… (I’ll check and come back with an answer) 🙂
 * Thank You !

 * Problems Solved.
    Somehow i had 3 articles posted by 3 times. I’ve hardly deleted
   them and now the Recent Posts are working well.
 * Still wayting an answer to Troubleshooting to see why it took me 30 minutes to
   delete few articles.
 * Thank you !
