How to set the maximum number of files/items in a folder?

Jump to solution

On CE 5.1f, when browsing the Repository via the website, then,

 - the maximum number of subfolders displayed in the tree navigator on the left is limited to 500   

 - the maximum number of subfolders displayed in the list view on the right, even if divided over multiple pages, seems to be 1000

How can these maxima be configured?

..in the older days this was also a problem with acls and Solr. 

In my 5.2 Installation I saw a "<maximum-folder-count>1000</maximum-folder-count>" and "<maximum-folder-count>500</maximum-folder-count>" in share-config-custom.xml (tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension) that seems to affect the tree view

Hi all,

I tried changing the <maximum-folder-count> to 2000 but the items that is displayed inside the folder is still limited to 998, I also increased the value for <timeout> tag but still no effect. What particularly changes did you made to solve this? I am using Alfresco v5.1. Thanks.

This only affects the maximum count of Folders in the treeview on the left sidebar of share. Is this the place where you have the problem?

Hi Martin Ehe,

I have resolved this issue by adding

<control-param name="maxSearchResults">2000</control-param>

in my custom model in share-config-custom.xml
