The parameter

limit=“5”

limits the number of entries on a page, using the following

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="{special_weblog}" limit="5"}

in the template.

Changing 5 to 3 means to modify the associated template which is easy for a developper, but may be not easy/secure for a user/customer.

A pretty solution should be to use a User Defined Global Variable, something as

{nb_entries}

.

I tried using

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="{special_weblog}” limit=”{nb_entries}”}

but did not succeed.

Something wrong ? Is there a way ?

Have a look at these docs - what you’re trying won’t work, and it’s clearly stated there.  You could do this using path.php global variables but that is arguably even less friendly to an end-user, requiring FTP, etc.
