Minion Increase Max Results Serch/Collections

Topic summary

A user seeks to increase the maximum number of items displayed per page in the Minion theme:

Search Results:

  • Currently limited to 18 items per page
  • Wants to increase to 54 items

Collection Pages:

  • Currently shows 50 items per page
  • Wants to increase to 54 items

A community member suggests editing the search.json file to modify the product limit for search results, and applying similar changes to collection pages. They recommend monitoring page load times after increasing these limits.

However, the original poster reports that 50 appears to be the maximum allowed - attempts to increase beyond this limit are blocked when trying to edit the fields.

Another user confirms this is likely a Shopify platform limitation rather than a theme restriction.

Status: Unresolved - the desired increase to 54 items appears blocked by Shopify’s built-in constraints.

I also need to increase the maximum number of items on a collection page from 50 to 54.

This has been here for a while, but I thought I would offer a possible solution. For search if you edit the search.json file you can change the product limit option. You should be able to do the same with the collections page. I would just look at what the increased limits do to your load time.

Good Luck

Hey, thanks for trying to help. 50 is the max; it won’t let me increase it further. That is what it says when I try to edit the fields.

Hi

That’s interesting. It must be a shopify limit.

Good Luck
