Increase the items limit of Nested Collection Lists (currently max 5 only!!!)

The Nested collection list function is super useful, but it is currently limited to 5 items.


It is actually fine and reasonable to have a limit, but not 5 only...

Webflow team, can you increase it to 20 or more?

    Agreed. I just created a whole calendar system to utilize nested collections only to find out that there's a 5-item limit AND NO SORTING of nested items??? I guess I didn't think to look at restrictions because I couldn't imagine there would be any.

    I really really want to be able to use this for mult-image galleries on static pages. Please please please increase the limit to 25!

    5 items are far too few and useless for most applications!!

    Just painful. Spending too much time on the frankly pathetic 'Logic' (which should be renamed to 'Form Only Logic') and not addressing restricting platform capabilities like this.

    Wasn't the big infrastructure update last year meant to allow for things like this to be solved or at least increased?

    Yeah I would love to see an increase in the nesting ability in general. I've taken over maintenance of a site where we have to join multiple collections just like any old relational database and we hit the limit right away.

    We have to create display variations of the joined collections and right now the client is being forced to decide on looking for temporary workarounds or rebuilding the site elsewhere, which would be a shame.

    I know there are some technical challenges with the custom data queries that would be required to do this kind of thing (caching and keeping the performance fast), but this really does need a solution asap since more and more Webflow users are looking to scale up the complexity of their sites, being that they're pretty happy with the service in general.

    🤞🏼

    Oh PLEASE update this!! I'm trying to build a site for a client with CMS houses plotted onto a map, all great but they can only have x5 houses - I need 30! So frustrating :(

    This is an urgent request. It's almost not worth using Webflow without at least 10 items. Considering moving to a different platform.

    Unfortunately I am one of the many who have run into this limitation after spending weeks on design, only to have to now consider drastically changing the product and workflow for myself and my client. Please increase this limit. It would be massively helpful.

    F**K me this is so frustrating and unnecessary. And the most frustrating part is that easily fixable wishes like these are ignored by the team. Please Webflow, fix this or at least respond!

    Webflow please increase the limit. Please! This is very important feature and very useful. Please increase the limit. Other solutions are available but there are many steps to perform to achieve the results that I don't want to do.

    Any updates here? This is honestly one of the worst limitations from a product I have ever experienced. 5?! Really?

    Absolutely ridiculous to have that limitation.

    At least make it an even number! I mostly pull images to display in a grid as I'm sure you know the 12 column grid and, well, 12 is not dividable by 5. Not even close.
