After NoLimits Plugin is installed new items will appear in the ListMaker

NoLimits plugin for AutoWikiBrowser is a tool for creating lists with more than 25,000 items. It is shipped with AWB starting with version 4.6.0.0. Its predecessor was the short-lived CategoryNoLimits plugin.

Current version is 1.3.4.0.

Manual

Plugins are included into main AWB distribution archive, however they are placed in the \Plugins subdirectory, so if you need to use a particular plugin, copy it to the main AWB directory.

Default AWB's Listmaker is limited to 25,000 items in order to protect the servers from overloading.

The plugin works only with admin, bot and user with the "apihighlimits" right accounts.

Load the plugin or by copying the NoLimitsPlugin.dll found in the Plugins\NoLimitsPlugin subdirectory before starting AWB or from Plugins -> Load... in the AWB's menu.
After loading it new items will be added in the Listmaker. They all have "NL, admins & bots" in their title. (NL stands for "No Limits". Use these instead of the default ones.

Nolimits Plugin gives access to full lists in the following eight cases:

Category
Category (recursive)
Category (recursive, user defined level)
Image file links
User contributions
User contributions (user defined number)
What trancludes page (all NS)
What trancludes page

Rules of use

You should use this plugin with great precaution. If you need this to create lists for a bot you need to request approval for that.

This is done by after installing it to select the items in the Listmaker ending with "(NL, Admin & Bot)" . NL stands for No Limits.
