Hi @pawanahluwalia

I created 700 pages in my local test environment and was able to see them all paginated under “View All”.

Are you seeing something different?

Alternatively, do you know which part of nav-menu.php you’d like to change and maybe I can help you work out how to do it with a filter?

Are the pages that you expect to see published? Only published pages are shown in this selector.

If modifying wp-admin/includes/nav-menu.php doesn’t fix the problem then I don’t think a filter will help.

Looking at line 536, it seems that using nav_menu_items_{$post_type_name}_recent should do the trick. It’s a little tricky but essentially you could re-run the WP_Query inside that filter. Note that I haven’t tested this code.

add_filter(
	'nav_menu_items_page_recent',
	function( $most_recent, $args, $box, $recent_args ) {
		$recent_args = array_merge(
			$recent_args,
			array(
				'posts_per_page' => 50, // Changing the number of posts
			)
		);
		$get_posts = new WP_Query;
		$most_recent = $get_posts->query( $recent_args );
		return $most_recent;
	},
	10,
	4
);

Unfortunately there’s no filter we can use to increase the number of results in ‘Search’.

If you’d like you could open a ticket here to add a filter for this. It sounds like a reasonable enhancement request to me. (Bonus points if you add a patch which implements the new filter 🙂 )

You maybe could look at using at a WP_Query filter or a wp_ajax_{$action} filter but it would be pretty gnarly and probably more work to maintain than just patching core.
