Display Multiple posts on Github pages using poole

I am trying to set up my blog on Github pages using Jekyll, as per the following template. https://github.com/poole/poole

The problem is, it displays only one post on the page, whereas I want it to display multiple posts on a single page, with the title and some part of the content. Has anyone dealt with this issue before? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

You just need to learn how jekyll works with liquid to do whatever you want. I would suggest you watch some videos on youtube and check out the docs on jekyllrb.com. This may help too: github.com/mdo/jekyll-snippets - Ron
Thank you for the link. I did figure it out eventually by reading through Jekyll documentation. - Akshay Khot

After going through the Jekyll documentation, I did figure it out. I will post what I did so that it helps anyone trying to do the same.

  1. In config.yml, change the value of paginate from 1 to 5(or whatever number of posts you want to display)
  2. In index.html, change {{ post.content }} to {{ post.excerpt }}. By default it displays the first paragraph. You can learn about excerpts and how to set a different separator here. http://jekyllrb.com/docs/posts/
