Is there a way to control the maximum articles a module can have? Modules like Smartsection, Article and News for instance. In Smartsection the more articles you have the slower on the server (talking about 3000+ articles) I would like to hack a file by putting maximum on articles is 300 for example so in the database I will only have 300 articles. At the moment I have to go in the database and delte the hundreds of files that are outdated.

With the news Module, you can setting a expiration date for your articles.

You can also the tab purge for delete this.
