Change maximum size of selctet pages

[Zerremonde]

Hey mate, its me again.
my problem is, i wanted to create a pdf book with round about 180 pages but the selection stopped at 90 with kicking me out of the wiki and sending a cach failure, after clearing cach i could login again but the selection was gone.

Is there a possibility to change the size of selectet pages from 90 to 200?

regards

The selection is stored in cookies. Cookies are part of the headers of the webpage loaded by your browser. However this headers has a limited size. This means in your case that around about 90 pages the maximum size is reached. (i didn't know it could mess up stuff..)

This is a currently known restriction of cookies. One of the future improvements would be using a alternative local storage system for keeping the selection. But that is a long term project..

Maybe you can save your 180 pages in two or three separated selections, and export them as 3 separated pdf-files which you can hopefully merge with an external program?

Ok I will save it in 8 sections and write down a bash script for merging them.

Thanks for the Information!

@Zerremonde : What do you do with links within the PDfs? I also have exported 3 PDFs and merged them afterwards, but then a link e.g. from PDF 1 to PDF 3 doesnt' work.
Have you maybe found a solution for that?
Thanks in advance!

Hmmm, That is updating of internal links in documents is a relatively new feature. It checks only for pages that are added to the generated PDF.
The restricting on the number of pages per export is still there due to the use of cookies.
A way that does not use cookies is by using exporting of a namespace (see wiki page for the url options). Of course that is only possible if you have ordered your pages per namespace.

Thank you very much for your message...I am not sure how to apply your suggestion, to be honest...and additionally, I think it maybe won't work as I have many namespaces that link to each other...
