In Rails console, I do: Video.count Returns 4 Video.limit(2) Returns 2 v = Video.limit(2)

In Rails console, I do:

Video.count

Returns 4 

Video.limit(2)

Returns 2

v   = Video.limit(2)
vv = v.page(1).per(20).count

Returns 4

Why is Kaminari displaying 4 / all records when there is a limit being applied? Shouldn’t it return 2 instead?

    If you have 100 videos in the db and you want to paginate only the first 50 records, lets say 25 per page – as an idea you may limit the number of pages in the view.

    # videos_controller.rb
def index
  @videos = Video.page(params[:page]).per(25)
end

# index.html.erb
<%= paginate @videos, :num_pages => 2 %>

# index.html.erb using Kaminari 0.14 or higher
<%= paginate @videos, :total_pages => 2 %>

    In recent versions of Kaminari (>= 0.14), :num_pages has been renamed to :total_pages. For more information, please refer to https://github.com/errbit/errbit/pull/282 and https://github.com/amatsuda/kaminari/issues/284.
