Search results restricted to 20

2008-09-15T09:34:30Z

I've recently upgraded to MT4.21 from MT4.12 and have noticed that my search pages are only showing a max of 20 results. I haven't changed the templates (not using pagination or anything) - this is happening on several different installations I manage. e.g. http://www.planetbods.org/blog/search.php?search=Google

My search isn't hugely complex - the code looks like this.

Do I need to change anything?

Besides my HTML that is.

I have noticed if I put &limit=20 in the query string, everything mysteriously works (having adapted the code on a test site to include the pagniate stuff) - however without that I'm restricted to purely 20.

limit of greater than 20 also doesn't work.

I have the same problem. Have you found a solution yet?

The only solution I have is to ensure the &limit=20 is always present - so on your search box code, include

and that should solve it.

I'm thinking this has something to do with the problem (we're using an old version of the search script, maybe?) but I don't know where we'd get the new search script or why MT wouldn't have upgraded it...
