How to set number of articles per page on the Blog module? I came across a 6.15 drupal site that I had to modify one simple thing:
put instead of 3 articles per page , 5 
on the front page the blog resume is shown, and it seem that the blog module doesn't have any setting to do that..
It isn't made with views, nor is it a block.. I don't even know how they get to the front page (probably by being promoted..)

here a snapshot of what I see on the front page...


how can I set the number of articles?
I can't find it anywhere...
I was thinking of defining a view or something and renounce of this built-in functionality...
Looking at blog_page_last and node_page_default, I see that both use the persistent variable called "default_nodes_main" (which defaults to 10) for the number of nodes per page. That variable can be set on the form at /admin/content/node-settings, under "Number of posts on main page".

The above means that both the /node and /blog pages use the same value. If you want different values for both pages, you probably need to rebuild one (or both) of them as a view.

I hope that answers your question.
