The announcement module offers several settings that allow you to customize the way it behaves and shows announcements. The settings available are as follows:
Show Announcements - Designates whether or not to show announcements on the main page.
Show Past Announcements - Designates whether or not to show the Past Announcements block on the main page.
Number of announcements shown on home page - This is just as it sounds. If you are showing announcements on your main page, this setting will limit the number of announcements that will be shown at a given time.
Number of past announcements shown - If you are showing the Past Announcements block on the main page, this setting will limit the number of past announcements to show in that block.
