Media Library ‘load more’ not showing all images

    I just uploaded about 3000 images via FTP from a previous backup of my site. They are in monthly folders going back to 2014. I then used ‘Media Sync’ plugin to sync them into the Media Library. The images are there and I can see them in each individual month from the dropdown menu. But when it shows ‘all dates’ I can only load about 800 of the 3000 before it just won’t load them any more. Anybody experience this?

    I believe there is some upper limit on how much content one can load into a single page. How may “Load More” buttons did it take to get to 800? Almost 4x that to get everything would not be a good way to interact with the media library. Even if you could, finding a specific image in all of that is somewhat unlikely. From a practical standpoint you should utilize filters or search to find the images you are looking for.

    If you use the general media library screen (not the editor’s library modal), you can choose a paginated list view instead of a grid view. All images will appear somewhere on the various pages, but it’s still an impractical way to find a specific image.
