[support] configure the number of blog posts

[Huisi Wang]

Thank you all.

I downloaded the views module, and installed it. I created a views,
made it provide a block. In 'blocks', made this block show in
'content'. But I cannot see the block on the front page of blog. The
front page of blog, I made a URL alias, and wrote a template file. In
the template file, I just print the content by 'print $content'. Is it
the problem? And I will be searching the documents for the views.

Thanks,

Huisi
