Navigation Controls

The number of results per page is determined by the Results Per Page setting, which is retained for all searches during the session and, for signed-in users, between sessions. Users can select either a specific page, the < icon to display the previous page, or the > icon to display the next page.

Offset Parameter

You can also modify the offset parameter in the search URL to display results for a specific page. The value of this parameter is the number of the first result that should appear on the page. For example, if you want to display the second page when Results Per Page is set to 50, you would need to add the &offset=50 parameter to the URL. For example:

Limitations on the Number of Results

Unfortunately, it is necessary to protect the system from automated attacks that manipulate the search-result navigation by changing the offset parameter to a very large number. Such attacks create excessive and unnecessary system load, causing stability issues. In order to protect the system from attacks of this sort while still allowing legitimate users to continue browsing search results, the following limitations have been established:

• Guest users can only access the first 250 results in the results list.
• Validated users can only access the first 2000 results in the results list.

When a guest user attempts to navigate to a page in which results beyond 250 would be displayed, they are prompted to sign into Primo VE.

Label Customization

The following labels in the Sign-In prompt can be customized (Discovery > Display Configuration > Labels):

• nde.login.continueSearchPolicy – Sign in to view full results
• nde.login.continueSearchPolicySubtitle – Guest users can view a limited set of results
