How to get more than 10 results in filemanager?

Permalink
I'm trying to have a long list of files to choose from in the filemanager. Normally it gives a list of only 10. I used to have in applications/config/concrete.php:

concrete5 v.8.40
'file_manager' => array(
        'results' => 50
    )


That doesn't work anymore. Have I missed something?

Thanks for Help

Hi blinkdesign

It's an issue introduced with version 8. And the setting in config/concrete.php does not work anymore. Actually discussed on github here:
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/issues/6237...
and more over here
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/issues/5944...

this is tagged for version 8.4.1 if somebody is helping out here. ;-)
I miss this too - for some sites its hard to work with only 10 results.

best regards, Roland

PS. There's a roadmap page thats connected to github.

You can use this hack in the meantime: https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/issues/5944#issuecomment-3907...

@burble I see what you mean now. I think until this is 'fixed' you'd do this via a (tested) hack:

Open 'Advanced Search'
Click 'Customize Results'
Right click on the dropdown 'Number of Results' and hit 'Inspect'
Change the 100 value in the select element to e.g. 1000 and then submit the form.

Thanks for the responses.
Yes, the filemanager needs improvment. Until this is fixed I found another way:
In filemanager save a search preset with desired criteria and choose the available 100 results.
To make sure this search preset appears on top of your initial list, save it as e.g. "000_namesearch_ascending", another "001_names_descending" etc.

When you open filemanager just doubleclick on one of the saved searches an get 100 results a page.
To have your searches appear on top of the list you may have to click the up/down arrow right to the "Name". You can do that in any folder.

True, - it's bumpy, but helps getting a longer list.
