How can I display more than 50 blogs on my articles page?

Technical Q&A

Topic summary

Main issue: In Shopify Admin, the Articles > Organization “Blog” dropdown only lists up to 50 blogs, preventing selection from the full set. Screenshots clarify this is a backend (admin UI) limitation, not a storefront display problem.

Initial guidance focused on the storefront: using Liquid’s paginate tag to increase visible articles per page: {% paginate blog.articles by [limit] %} … {% endpaginate %}. Liquid (Shopify’s templating language) defaults to 50 items.

Latest update: Reference notes that paginate supports up to 1000 items per page, but this is not officially supported and may impact server load. An alternative is using an app to fetch and display articles via the Storefront GraphQL API (GraphQL = API query language), enabling custom pagination on the storefront.

Key distinction: All proposed solutions address frontend rendering. They do not change the Admin “Blog” dropdown limit.

Outcome/Status:

  • No confirmed workaround to increase the Admin dropdown beyond 50.
  • Frontend options exist (Liquid paginate, or GraphQL via an app).
  • Discussion remains unresolved for the backend; confirmation from Shopify/support on the Admin limit is still needed.

Hello!

Actually, I’m facing an issue and that is that this blog selection option https://prnt.sc/1o0z3j1 in the shopify articles page is not showing more than 50 blogs.

I will really appreciate if someone can let me know the work around to show more than the above limit. There are so many blogs I have created, but it is only showing 50.

Thanks!

@neilbannet Hi,

The default pagination count is 50 if you don’t specify the limit.

You’ve to customize the Blog template directly to add the limit like following.

{% paginate blog.articles by [your-limit-count] %}

{% endpaginate %}

Hope this solves your issue

Thanks!

Hi Dan!

Thanks much for the reply!

Actually, the issue is at the backend i.e., https://prnt.sc/1o0z3j1 /admin/articles/…

Go to any one of the article and you will see a blog option under “Organization”. That blog option is not showing all the blogs ( no more than 50 ) that I have created.

So in simple words, all the blogs in this page “/admin/blogs” are not showing in the “Blog” dropdown/option in the article page. Hope it makes sense.

The above solution is for the frontend. Sorry if I am wrong.

Kind regards

The default template in Liquid themes uses the paginate object :bird:

paginate has a limit of 50 items per page. However, from a server load perspective, it’s not officially supported, but you can increase page_size to up to 1000 to display more items.

If that’s not feasible, you will need to use an app to fetch and display articles with pagination via GraphQL
