Search Limits

The name pattern search form, blazon pattern search form, and complex search form each allow you to set a limit on the number of returned items. On these forms, if you do not specify a limit, your results will be limited to 500 items.

If your search is limited, you will see a message at the bottom of your results listing similar to the below:

There were n other items for which details are not available, due to the limit feature.

In this case, the item you were looking for may be one of the ones that was cut from the listing. There are several things you might do next:

• You can specify a higher limit by filling in the box next to the words "Limit to a maximum of ___ items" and re-running the search.
• You can make your search more specific and re-run it. For instance, if you are doing a name pattern search, you might try specifying more letters of the name so that there are fewer matching items.
