Querying a large per_page number of posts

[pycal]

I'm noticing that when I set my per_page param to a number exceeding 100, I will still only be able to retrieve 100 objects (in my case I am expecting around 200).

Sidenote: I've noticed that the per_page param isn't working as described in the docs - I can set per_page > MAX_POSTS_PER_PAGE.

Quoting the doc:

"The maximum number of posts to return. The value must range from 1 to MAX_POSTS_PER_PAGE."

So I've found a solution for my particular problem.

Something like this will only ever return a max of 100 objects (despite my MAX_POSTS_PER_PAGE being set to 500):

/wp_api/v1/posts?per_page=500&post_type=glossary

However this will return all objects in the post_type I am querying:

/wp_api/v1/posts?per_page=-1&post_type=glossary

When you are defining MAX_POSTS_PER_PAGE, are you defining it with the appropriate namespace?

It should be \Voce\Thermal\v1\MAX_POSTS_PER_PAGE

I was not able to replicate the issue you stated of being able to query with and return more results than what is set for MAX_POSTS_PER_PAGE. I could specify 200 but since the default for MAX_POSTS_PER_PAGE is 100, that is the max. Once I changed the value for \Voce\Thermal\v1\MAX_POSTS_PER_PAGE I am being returned the correct result set.

I'm still not able to replicate issue here and without any response from the user, I am closing this issue.
