Request: Uncap the number of categories you can filter

Jump to: navigation, search

Our wiki uses this extension quite a bit to generate reports. One thing our authors have noticed is that when you add too many notcategories it stops working. (Gives the error "Error: Too many categories!") Is there a way to increase this number? And what are the reasons for this limitation?

Sorry. I found the settings, but before I alter it, what are the reasons for the current limits?

The query gets more inefficient the more categories you have (In general). If someone tried to do the intersection of 200 categories, and all those categories were really big and mostly distinct, it could make your servers melt.

Ok, thanks! I'll give our authors the heads up.
