Android Build a Blog Reader Android App Getting Data from the Web Parsing Data Returned in JSON Format

AS Logged only 10 posts instead of 20. Could it be because there are 10 on page 1 and others are on page 2? //with code

So when I try to log the posts with

Log.v(TAG, "Post " + i + ": " + title);

Android Studio only loggs the first 10 posts (from 0 to 9). I noticed that in the blog page there are exactly those 10 posts on page 1. So I am guessing Android Studio can't go to page 2. I made sure that my NUMBER_OF_POSTS varialbe is 20.

Here's my code:

Variables:

public static final int NUMBER_OF_POSTS = 20;
public static final String TAG = MainListActivity.class.getSimpleName();

If statement inside "onCreate" function: 

if (isNetworkAvailable()) {
  GetBlogPostsTask getBlogPostsTask = new GetBlogPostsTask();
  getBlogPostsTask.execute();
}
else {
  Toast.makeText(this, "Network is unavailable!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}

I've paste my "GetBlogPostsTask" in pastebig, since it's quite big and I don't want to make the post huge. Here's the link - http://pastebin.com/5t6mZJX3

I know this is a really late reply, but in case this helps anyone else, you need to update this code based on the Teacher's Notes that link to this post in the Forum: https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/parsing-data-returned-in-json-jsonexception-unterminated-string-at-character-5792

On a related note, this course will be retired as soon as I finish up my next course which is due in about a month.

Thank you for your reply Ben :) But I am afraid I left this course behind since I struggled with another error to which I couldn't quite find the asnwer.

(On a related note) - Any reveals on what the course will be about? Another app or?
