Number of pages returned in a search on PF

[cianfa72]

Hello,
I have a simple question. Doing a PF search (simple or advanced) the number of pages returned is up to 17.

Is there some limit/constraint in the PF searching engine ?

Thank you.

I have a simple question. Doing a PF search (simple or advanced) the number of pages returned is up to 17.

The search returns up to 500 results, 30 to a page $\left \lfloor \frac {500}{30} \right \rfloor = 17$.

Is there some limit/constraint in the PF searching engine ?

The messages are stored in a SQL database: the query is clearly LIMITed to 500 rows by choice.

If you want more than 500 results then sort the results by date and then do another query sorted by date with "older than" set to the day before the date of the last message on page 17.
