I'd love to know the answer to this too, along with changing the default web client setting to show content by detail view instead of icon.

I've encountered random bugs when trying to get the items per page to work properly, such as number changes not posting in some browsers even if I press enter or click somewhere else. (Seems more common while looking at search results.)

I'm not sure if this is what you want, but default settings for items per page are stored in web-client-config.xml [1].

I wanted the default browsing view to show 15 items per page. So I had to change the icons value from 9 to 15.
See code below.


         <view-defaults>
            <browse>
               <!– allowable values: list|details|icons –>
               <view>icons</view>
               <page-size>
                  <list>10</list>
                  <details>10</details>
                  <icons>15</icons>
               </page-size>
            </browse>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

After changing the settings a restart is required.

Hope this helped.

[1] In my config where alfresco runs in tomcat (provided by alfresco) the xml file is located in:
<alfresco_home>/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/web-client-config.xml
