Hi,
look news block on site sv-stroi.net
you can see at left side news (tpl-asidenews).

<div class="row news">
  <div class="span4">
	<div class="label label-info">[[+publishedon:strtotime:date=`%d.%m.%Y`]]</div>
	<div><a href="[[~[[+id]]]]" title="[[+pagetitle]]">[[+pagetitle]]</a></div>
		<div>
	  <p>[[+introtext]]</p>
	</div>
  </div>
</div>

How can i change number of news displayed in this block?

This is subelement of tpl news and resource news
[[!getPage@article?
&elementClass=`modSnippet`
&element=`getResources`
&limit=`5`
&parents=`8`
&tpl=`news`
&showHidden=`1`
&includeTVs=`1`
&includeContent=`1`
&pageLimit=`5`
&pageNavVar=`page.nav`
]]
[[!+page.nav]]

The &limit is the property that specifies how many to show, or perhaps the &pageLimit, since the list is wrapped with getPage.

I tried it before.

Pagelimit changed nothing. I read it should changes list numeration like: 1,2,3.....10,11 or 1,2,...5,6...10,11.

Limit also doesn't work, coz it applies for /news. I mean it not for side news, it for tpl news. But on left side tpl aside-news. Settings same but doesn't work for side news.

You can see setting limit and pagelimit 4 now, but on site you can see 5 news at side.

I mean settings work only for sv-stroi.net/news but not for side news. Please, open that link and you will see.

These are two different snippet calls, right?

One for the main body, and one for the side?

Post your code here, the snippet for the side news. &limit should work for both calls individually. Each snippet call is independent of another. &pageLimit is as you have noted, for the paging only. It does not limit the number of articles shown via your getResources call, only the paging.
