Results per page

Set a fixed number of results per page, with optional controls only when essential.

Display a manageable number of items per page without overwhelming users.

When to use

Set 25 items as your default and do not provide a control to adjust this.

Only include results per page controls when they are essential for user flows.

How to use

When you must include the control, offer 25, 50, or 100 items as options.

Position the control alongside your pagination controls to group like access for at-hand findability.
