I thought I would share something that we stumbled on recently: there is a max_items limit set somewhere EPrints (I'm not sure where?) that will result in the following error message for browse views that exceed it:
"The number of items (2001) for this view has exceeded system limits (2000). The system administrator either needs to increase "max_items" or apply additional filters to this view."
Google search of this error message reveals that are a few EPrints repositories that stumble on this limit in their browse views.
For us, it was the browse by doctype > theses, as we have more than 2000 theses. We solved this issue by further sub-dividing by year the browse view that was attempting to display more than max_items:
id=> "doctype",
allow_null => 1,
hideempty => 1,
menus=>[
{
fields=>["type"],
allow_null => 1,
hideempty => 1,
},
{
fields => [ "date;res=year" ],
reverse_order => 1,
allow_null => 1,
hideempty => 1,
new_column_at => [10,10],
}
],
order=>"-date"
