  3. Go to Posts and set Max posts shown on main page to the max number of posts to show in each page. (If posts number is shown as expected, check this article Why Posts Count not Shown as Expected?).

  4. Then enable or disable the Image lightbox to enable or disable the popup images lightbox inside posts (To see it live, visit any demo post and click on any image inside the post. The image should pop up in a box).

  8. Go to Site feed and set Allow blog feed to Short. If you don't upload the images directly into the post or use external images URLs, you must set this setting to Full. You can set it to Until Jump Break too, if you would like but make sure to add the jump break in your post at least after the first image and a decent amount of text that will be used as a snippet if required.
