How can I display more than 10 posts on the portfolio landing page?

Hi

How can I display more than 10 posts on the portfolio page?

My code is 

<?php

/*
  Template Name: Full Riders Grid Template
*/

?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

<!-- Jumbotron -->
<div class="jumbotron">
  <div class="container">
    <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
  </div>
</div>

<div class="container">

  <!-- Content -->
  <section>
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-12">

      <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

        <?php the_content(); ?>

      <?php endwhile; else: ?>

        <div class="pageheader">
          <h1>Oh no!</h1>
        </div>

        <p>No content is appearing for this page</p>

      <?php endif; ?>

    </div>

  </div>

  <div class="row">

    <?php 
      $args = array(
        'post_type' => 'fullrider'
      );
      $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );

    ?>

    <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>

    <div class="col-sm-3 fullrider-piece">

      <?php 
        $thumbnail_id = get_post_thumbnail_id(); 
        $thumbnail_url = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $thumbnail_id, 'thumbnail-size', true ); 
      ?>

      <p>
        <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
          <img src="<?php echo $thumbnail_url[0]; ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>">
          </a>
      </p>
      <h3><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>

    </div>

    <?php $fullrider_count = $the_query->current_post + 1; ?>
    <?php if ( $fullrider_count % 4 == 0 ): ?>

    </div>
    <div class="row">

    <?php endif; ?>

    <?php endwhile; endif; ?>

  </div>

  </section>
  <!--/ Content -->

</div>
<!--/ Container -->        

<?php get_footer(); ?>

And the page can be found at http://www.team-mash.co.uk/full-riders/

Thanks David

You can do this using the WP_Query function which can be found here . the code would look something like this 

$args = array(
    'post_type' => 'post',
    'post_per_page' => 10
);
$query = new WP_Query( $args );

Hi Kelvin

Thanks for the reply. I've tried the code above but I still see only 10 posts.

I should maybe point out that I'm using the Custom Posts Types and Advanced Custom Fields plugins.

My code is

<?php 
      $args = array(
        'post_type' => 'fullrider',
        'post_per_page' => 10
      );
      $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );

?>

I also changed the 10 to 20 to see if that had an effect but I still only see 10.

Thanks David

yeah l am familiar with those plugins. what are you using the ACF for? what account is it getting. you made the arguments now what you have to do is run a loop after the loop has been runned if you have more than 10 that should work. ohh and take the post_per_page out pf the argument.
