Page limit in Archive Explorer?

Hi All,

 

We have a 10 page limit on folders in Archive Explorer and users are prompt to use Search to find the other items. I'd like to know where is this set?, can it be changed?, if so, what would be the implications of changing this?

 

Thanks in advanced,

Cheers,

Phil

  • Thanks Michel,

     

    Didn't have an entry for MaxVolSetsItems so I added MaxVolSetsItems=2000 and it didn't make a difference.

     

    Thanks again,

  • In Webapp.ini

     

    ShowAllMaxResults = 2000

    FederatedSearchMaxItems = 2000

     

    Restart IIS.

     

    If results are not as expected rember to use the 'refresh' feature by right-clicking the message pane in AE

  • Hi,

     

    the page limit is 10 and ou can't change that.  What you can change is the total number of results which means more results per page (but still 10 pages)

     

    The logic behind the limit is that obviously a large search result consumes resources and we wouldn't want 'lazy' users just doing searches with few terms and then going through results.  So by default we presume any more than 1000 results (10 pages with 100 results) is enough for most people and at that point really they should probably be adding additional search terms to return less results.

  • Thanks for all the feedback,

     

    "The Dodo", how would I change the number of results per page? Currently getting 100 items per page so that makes 1000. Would it be one of the webapp.ini settings already mentioned?, if so do you know which one?

     

    Thanks again,

    Cheers,

  • Hi All,

     

    Added FederatedSearchMaxItems = 2000 to webapp.ini and I know get 13 pages (that's all I've got) in Archive Explorer. I'm guessing this would now stop at 20 pages.

     

    Thanks again for all the help.

    Cheers,
