Cannot have more than 16 slices

[jonasklingborg]

Hi,

I'm running EPiServer 8.5 with Find 9.5 and PowerSlice 2.1.3.0.

If I have more than 16 slices/filters it is not possible to add the gadget. I get a javascript popup saying "Error: could not add component". (If the gadget is already added, it is not a problem having more slices, so I didn't notice the problem while developing the slices, only when I moved to my test environment.)

I have tested several combinations of slices, so I don't think it is a problem with a particular slice. Just when I go from 16 to 17.

When dojo tries to add the component, the payload JSON for the component becomes increasingly large with more slices. At some point ASP.NET refuses to handle any more, at that is why you are getting an error when having more than 16 slices.

You can set the maximum allowed JSON size by using the aspnet:MaxJsonDeserializerMembers key in the appSettings (default value is 1000):

<appSettings>
    <add key="aspnet:MaxJsonDeserializerMembers" value="10000" />
</appSettings>
