getPosts method returns only 5 posts

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hey,

'getPosts' method returns only 5 posts even if I pass 100 in args.

Please advise.

Thanks.

Sorry for my very late answer.
Can you tell me what the value of your args variable exactly is?

Was just having a look at wpws-soap.php, get_posts method of WordPress expects 
an array and as per the WSDL for wpws, args for wp_WebService::getPosts method 
is a string. So I guess irrespective of whatever is sent in args, get_posts is 
returning results for default values of args where numberposts is set to 5 as 
per http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/get_posts

How are you supposed to pass an array when it is asking for a string?

I have modified the code to unserialize a serialized array and that works great 
but is that the best way? If it is I am more than happy to submit my code 
changes.

Hi can you please provide the code changes?. I am not so familiar with PHP and 
I am using this functionality with .Net and I too have the same problem
PostArray ps = client.getPosts("");

Since the argument expected is a string I am not sure how to pass an array

Could you please provide me with a sample array you want to pass?

Please also try passing the condensed string in the form "key1=val1&key2=val2".
E.g. "numberposts=10&category=5"

Hi,

My apologies for taking long to respond..... but the "key1=val1&key2=val2" 
worked well thanks for the support. I now need to work on adding  method to get 
distinct categories.

If you make any progress you're free to send me a patch so I can add the 
functionality to WPWS.

Please for God sake! at least write a two line documentation! I am searching 
for 3 hours how to pass arguments e.g. postsnumbers!

The web service itself is fine, but when it comes with no documentation, 
then... :(

I'm sorry, but I'm currently working on my PhD. For that reason I don't find 
time to work on the plugin.
If you feel like it needs improvement, I invite you to join the project.
