How to limit the number of products on home page in Magento

To limit the number of products displayed on the homepage in Magento, you can modify the home page’s widget settings or edit the associated CMS block. If you’re using the “Catalog Products List” widget, navigate to Content > Pages, edit the “Home Page,” and adjust the widget settings to specify the “Number of Products to Display.” Alternatively, if products are being fetched dynamically via code, modify the corresponding .

html file, typically located in your theme’s template directory (app/design/frontend/YourTheme/Magento_Catalog/templates/product/list.phtml).

Use the ->setPageSize() method in the product collection query to define the limit.

This approach ensures a controlled number of products appear while maintaining site performance and user experience.
