views_items_per_page_number

This module alters the "Items per page" (aka "Items per block") setting for Views blocks within the Drupal administration interface. Instead of a dropdown select list with predefined options (e.g., 5, 10, 20, 40), it changes the input type to a number field. This allows site administrators to enter any desired numeric value for the number of items displayed per block, providing greater flexibility beyond the default choices.

FEATURES

Converts the Items per page/Items per block select field to a number input field for Views blocks.
Allows administrators to specify custom numeric values for items per page.
Sets a minimum value of 1 for the number input.

REQUIREMENTS

Drupal 10.x or 11.x

INSTALLATION

Install as you would normally install a contributed Drupal module. Visit: https://www.drupal.org/node/1897420 for further information.

CONFIGURATION

After enabling the module, navigate to the block layout administration page (/admin/structure/block). When configuring a Views-based block, the "Items per block" setting will now appear as a number input field where you can enter a custom value.

TECHNICAL DETAILS

The module implements hook_form_alter() to target the form elements responsible for the "Items per page" setting. It specifically looks for $form['settings']['override']['items_per_page'] and modifies its
#type to 'number' and unsets the #options array. A #min attribute is also added to ensure the input is at least 1.
