Description

Current version: 6.1.1
Bug occurs even when all plugins deactivated, and default theme applied.

From the block editor, on the right panel, when I select 'Author' - the dropdown list only shows the first 50 authors. The expected result would be 100+

I can type the authors name, who is not featured on the dropdown, and it will search and find that author. But ideally their name would be on the dropdown.

Hi and thanks for the report!

This ideally would be in the Gutenberg repository instead of Trac, if you or someone else would like to open an issue there.

The number had been 100, but it was reduced to 50 as part of the refactoring on GB33695.

  • Milestone Awaiting Review deleted
  • Resolution set to wontfix
  • Status changed from new to closed

For now I am going to close this as it was changed to this number on purpose by the editor team. This doesn't mean an enhancement can't be worked on though. If you would still like to advocate for that please report it via the GitHub repository as recommended.
