I’ve got an odd problem. I’ve set max returned objects to 6 in my data source (xano) - You can see it working properly in this screenshot. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/1X/3e0278038d330e7499531e8dde9a0d07e9d4c622.png) I then am using a table element to display this data, and I want to paginate it. However somehow the table element is not honoring the max returned items per page. Here you can see 8 rows being displayed and the pagination widget just going to default. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/1X/9c1cebbe1a9420ff6ed22350b9760e6772aa6bef.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/1X/c03a361cbeaa0c81f964c05eeb9a270e086cb8f3.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/1X/cfe813526ea10169f2ae94fc0e220f483e1f3ce9.png) I have tried quite a few things here, but am wondering if this is possibly a bug? ---

Actually one update on this, I turned off formatting in the Data Sources and it actually looks like pagination is maybe not working at all with Xano results? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/1X/59ff041cf530ae7c1b28fab19c209068c3bec4ff.png) ---

I’m experiencing this problem as well, not sure how to fix it ---

Hi @patopt 👋 Are you trying to set pagination on the backend side or on the frontend side? i.e. would you like Xano to send 6 items at a time to WeWeb or would you like Xano to send all the items to WeWeb and restrict the display to 6 items in WeWeb? ---

Trying to do this on the frontend side with Weweb. ---

Ah! My bad! Just remembered for the pagination you need to bind to the collection name not collection name [‘data’] ![CleanShot 2022-06-27 at 17.33.16@2x](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/1X/89e654df5cdf2821349c34eaf697bbee071fba86.jpeg) Sorry, it’s been a long day! 😅 I’ve included a warning [in the user doc](https://docs.weweb.io/frontend-pagination/) but it’s still not obvious. Need to think of a message to show in-app to avoid the confusion. ---

That looks to have done the trick, thanks!
