Hi,
I want that only a certain number of pages to be displayed eg only 8 pages <12345678>
for me it is 20 pages <1234567891011121314151617181920>
how can I do that. Many thanks in advance

The only way I know of to control that is to take how many articles you display on a page (see http://code.google.com/p/n-13news/wiki/Integration ) and how many pages you want to display, then archive any articles that would cause you to go over the number.

So if you want 10 articles per page, on your page you would put

<?php
$cppage = '10';
include 'news/index.php';
?>

and if you want 8 pages, then archive all articles over 80 using your Admin page.
