Latest Articles On Homepage vs Next/Previous Pages

I am using the Homepage + Article List and I want to only display about 4 Latest Articles on the homepage. It provides that option. Now when clicking the ‘Next’ button on the bottom of Latest Article on homepage, it only displays 4 on the next page. How do I go about having about 9 posts on the ‘Next’ page?

hi,
what you want is possible only if you modify the source code.
if you do not know how, my advice is to hire a programmer for this task

Thanks for you message.
