How to make every Blogger post appear on a separate page

One Post per Page?

One Blogger option that confuses some people is how to set up their blog so that only one post shows up on each "page" or screen, and there is a complete break between the posts.

This is fairly easy to do, you just need to understand a little about the types of screens that Blogger uses to display your posts, and how they can be manipulated and used - or importantly not used.

Most people refer to the screens that their blog as "pages".   However I try not to use that word, because the Pages feature in Blogger is quite different.  See "The Difference between pages and posts" for more about this.


How to show one post at a time on the main screen:

  • Choose the Options drop down from the main menu, 
  • Choose the Settings > Posts and Comments panel from the left sidebar.  
  • Enter one (1) into the Show at most field
  • Click Save Settings in the top right hand corner of the screen.


(Yes, these commands talk about "page", but they mean "the main screen".)
