I've recently set forum to display "recent articles" in a centerblock, but I want to change the number of articles from 10 to 6.

Anyone know how I do this? Thanks! Tom

There's a variable for this in the forum's functions.inc file somewhere (search for "centerblock").

bye, Dirk

Dirk, thanks for the quick reply--and I looked for and found "centerblock" in [geeklog]/plugins/forum/functions.inc--but changing the value of "post_limit", documented as "How many posts do you want displayed" in function plugin_centerblock_forum did not change what's displayed on my web site. I even bounced apache.

Maybe I'm just being stupid here, but I don't see any other variable I should be changing.

Any suggestions or ideas much appreciated...even if (as I think will happen) it's just pointing out something obvious to me that I've missed...thanks!

Sounds like the variable I had in mind. And I just confirmed that it does indeed work (at least here on the site) ...

bye, Dirk
