# Shortcode “Max” Limit

 * Hello!
 * I use the Feedzy shortcode loaded into a “Text” widget to power the “Related”
   sidebar on my site’s subpages.
 * On the [“How to use shortcode” Feedzy page](https://docs.themeisle.com/article/1130-how-to-use-feedzy-with-a-shortcode),
   it shows that the “Max” parameter in a shortcode can range between 1-30.
 * On one of my subpages — [CTE Programs: High School](https://www.leanderisd.org/cteprograms_highschool/)—
   I use the shortcode below, with the max parameter set to 30, but it only shows
   10 items, when there should be 19 items in this feed:
 * [feedzy-rss feeds=”[https://www.leanderisd.org/feed/?tag=related-highschoolcteprograms&#8221](https://www.leanderisd.org/feed/?tag=related-highschoolcteprograms&#8221);
   summary=”no” thumb=”no” sort=”title_asc” meta=”no” feed_title=”no” max=”30″ target
   =”_self”]
 * When I change the max parameter to a number less than 10, such as 5, it does 
   limit the feed accordingly. I just can’t get it to show a number greater than
   10.
 * Is there a different limit unique to it being in the Widget area?
 * Thanks,
    Daniel

 * Hi [@lisdwebmaster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lisdwebmaster/),
 * I’ve checked your feed – [https://www.leanderisd.org/feed/?tag=related-highschoolcteprograms#8221](https://www.leanderisd.org/feed/?tag=related-highschoolcteprograms#8221)
   and I can confirm that it contains only 10 <item> elements.
 * Could you please provide more details where you see 19 items in this feed?
 * Thanks!

 * Hello, Vytis.
 * Thanks for pointing that. In my head, I knew there were 19 items with that tag,
   but I didn’t think to check that my site would be limiting the number of items
   that appear in the RSS feed itself. Bad assumption on my part!
 * I’ve adjusted the Settings / Reading / Syndication Feeds Show the Most Recent
   field to allow for more than 10 items to appear in the RSS feed, and now all 
   19 items appear in the RSS.
 * This, in turn, allow for all 19 items to appear in the Feedzy widget.
 * Appreciate your help!
