Stats: Top posts results for sites with more than 500 posts #48129

Open leogermani opened 3 years ago

This issue is a follow up of 6194-gh-jpop-issues

As of D53962-code the number of posts returned by the top-posts API endpoint is limited to 500.

Since there is no pagination or any message explaining that the results are limited, the user might have the wrong impression that the information shown is all the information that exists.

This could be fixed by adding pagination or a better explanation of the scope of the list.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Find a site with more than 500 posts and with a good number of visits (example in the jpop issue)
  2. Visit https://wordpress.com/stats/day/posts/{$SITE}

What I expected

User feedback explaining that results are limited to top 500 or pagination

What happened instead

No user feedback on the scope of the list
