If you set the “Number of items to offset” to 0, you should see all the latest posts.

The fix made it into WordPress, but hasn’t made it in the Gutenberg plugin yet. The Gutenberg plugin is not required for running Atomic Blocks. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Atomic Blocks - Gutenberg Blocks Collection] post grid category not working in WP 5.5](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-grid-category-not-working-in-wp-5-5/) * Plugin Author [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-grid-category-not-working-in-wp-5-5/#post-13328869) * Howdy, folks. I just tested the 5.5.1 release candidate posted [here](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/08/27/wordpress-5-5-1-rc1/) and it fixes the issue. If all goes well with the RC, we should see 5.5.1 released on Tuesday. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Atomic Blocks - Gutenberg Blocks Collection] post grid category not working in WP 5.5](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-grid-category-not-working-in-wp-5-5/) * Plugin Author [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-grid-category-not-working-in-wp-5-5/#post-13269545) * Hi all, * This looks like a bug introduced in WP 5.5, where they removed a function we rely on to save the category. The bug is captured in the Gutenberg repo here: [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/24516](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/24516) * We’re looking into alternatives while we wait. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Atomic Blocks - Gutenberg Blocks Collection] No filter for excerpt_more](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-filter-for-excerpt_more/) * Plugin Author [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-filter-for-excerpt_more/#post-13257003) * [@wputler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wputler/) thanks for the suggestion. I’ll add this to the list and see if we can get this in sometime soon. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Atomic Blocks - Gutenberg Blocks Collection] post grid category not working in WP 5.5](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-grid-category-not-working-in-wp-5-5/) * Plugin Author [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-grid-category-not-working-in-wp-5-5/#post-13250564) * [@kathycac](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kathycac/) [@adamswords](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adamswords/) we’re looking into this now. We’ll update you as soon as we know more. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Atomic Blocks] Changing the URL of the home page link](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-the-url-of-the-home-page-link/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [5 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-the-url-of-the-home-page-link/#post-12956433) * The theme calls a function named `atomic_blocks_title_logo()` to display the logo, which then uses the WordPress function called `the_custom_logo()` to display the logo. That WP function automatically links to the site’s homepage. * A couple ways you can handle this. * 1) Redefine the `atomic_blocks_title_logo()` function in your child theme’s functions. php. The Atomic Blocks theme checks to see if that function exists before defining it, which means you can override it in your child theme. * 2) The WordPress core function called `the_custom_logo()` passes the HTML of the logo and link through a filter right before displaying it. That filter is named `get_custom_logo`. * Either method should work. The first is probably easier, especially since you’ve already edited that function directly and understand the changes you need to make. You could port over your customizations to the redefined function in your child theme’s functions.php file. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Atomic Blocks - Gutenberg Blocks Collection] Post & Grid shows posts from other categories](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-grid-shows-posts-from-other-categories/) * Plugin Author [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [6 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-grid-shows-posts-from-other-categories/#post-12815485) * Hi [@fredwbaker](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fredwbaker/), I’m not able to reproduce this error. * Does this still happen if you temporarily deactivate all other plugins except Atomic Blocks and switch to the Twenty Twenty theme? * Also can you show me a screenshot of the Post and Page Grid Settings that you have in the sidebar? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Atomic Blocks - Gutenberg Blocks Collection] Uninitialized string offset : 0 ….atomic-blocks newsletter-function.php](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/uninitialized-string-offset-0-atomic-blocks-newsletter-function-php/) * Plugin Author [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [6 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/uninitialized-string-offset-0-atomic-blocks-newsletter-function-php/#post-12797506) * [@tonj83](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tonj83/) Hi, do you have a MailChimp account with mailing lists? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Atomic Blocks - Gutenberg Blocks Collection] AB Advanced Columns – Does not convert to regular block](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ab-advanced-columns-does-not-convert-to-regular-block/) * Plugin Author [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [6 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ab-advanced-columns-does-not-convert-to-regular-block/#post-12778822) * [@madisonlynn35](https://wordpress.org/support/users/madisonlynn35/) thanks for sharing the video.
