days on frontpage
is there a chance to differ between "days on frontpage" and the number of days on the following pages? for example: "1 day on frontpage", "5 days from 2nd page on".

afaik, on the following pages you should see the stories of one day only. it's (almost) like clicking on a day in the calendar. so i don't think there's a need for a special setting of how many days will be displayed there, isn't it?

with a frontcover (fe "1 day") and the following pages (fe "5 days on one page"), then "there's a need for a special setting of how many days will be displayed there"

is not a book, if you didn't know ;-)

As far as I now, on the following pages you should see the stories of exactly as many days as there are on the front page.
Supatyp's anaolgy is bad, because if a weblog was a book, there were no stories on the cover. However, you actually might want to have only one day on your front page and five days on the following pages.
I wonder if such a feature could be implemented in a smarter way, since having two parameters for "days per page" seems to violate the "zero, one, infinity" rule somewhat.
supatyp
why are there "pages"?

why are there "cars"?
Mutant didn't exactly elaborate much, but is totally right. In a book, you'd have an equal amount of space on each page and would never ever think about how many days to fit on one page. As I said, your feature request is clever, but your book analogy is not.

A Book is also readable from the back side.
No power user reads internet like a book.
But here is my readable solution for this!
Mr. Supatyp, read your site under topics. There you will find more story days on one page and everything around the same theme. Nich schlecht.

why everybody is discussing the sense or nosense of supatyps question!! It doesn't matter!
He wants to style his blog in this way! And why not?!!
So please answer his question. It's mine too!
(Resp., I tried to put a permanent text between the first day and the following days on the frontpage.)

It makes sense to discuss the sense or nonsense of the question, since it's a little misleading: The following pages in question actually are on the frontpage, it's just a different view thereof. That's why the parameter in the blog preferences is called "days on frontpage".
I thought the question itself was already answered by my comment above: as there only is this one parameter, you can't have a different setting for the pages after the first currently. I'd propose looking for an answer to the question: what's the smartest way to implement such a feature?
