| 61 | |||
| 62 | The page contains a line like this: | ||

| 64 | {{code}} | ||
| 65 | var ta = new XWiki.widgets.LiveTable("$url", "groupstable", callback); | ||
| 66 | {{/code}} | ||

| 68 | Just replace it with: | ||
| 69 | |||
| 70 | {{code}} | ||
| 71 | var ta = new XWiki.widgets.LiveTable("$url", "groupstable", callback, {limit: 100}); | ||
| 72 | {{/code}} | ||
| 73 | |||
| 74 | where 100 is the number of items displayed per page. |
