Course Catalog does not respect settings
-
In LifterLMS > Settings > Courses, the “Courses per page” setting does not work.
If I change this setting, that number of courses displayed in the Dashboard > My Courses reflects the number of courses, but not the Course Catalog. The course catalog only shows 5 courses no matter what number is entered in the LifterLMS > Settings > Courses > Courses per page field.I have also found that in the Dashboard > My Courses, when I have more courses than the “Courses per page” setting, the My Courses pagination does not work.
There are no server-side or caching plugins installed and host server cache is, and always has been, disabled.
Example to reproduce the issue:
Set the “Courses per page” to a number less that the number of courses a user is enrolled into.
Visit the Course Catalog to see if the number of courses displayed per page has changed.
Result: no.
Visit the Dashboard > My Courses partial.
Verify the number of courses displayed in the first view is less than the total number of courses the user is enrolled into.
Select the 2nd. page or the Next button.
Result: these links to not work.It was already proposed to use the [lifterlms_courses] shortcode with atts, but this does not display the courses in the desired order, yet the LifterLMS > Settings > Courses settings does.
The problem with the shortcode is that is uses the post_id making courses be listed in order of creation rather than use the Post Attributes > Order number.LifterLMS Version 3.36.2

I repeat: Your shortcode is useless because it only uses the post_id and not the Oder ID (which can be configured). Not an option.

This is as bare-bones as it gets and clearly demonstrates the LifterLMS course catalog number of courses displayed is not being respected.LifterLMS System Report: Wordpress ------------------------------------------- Home Url: https://www.domain.com/staging Site Url: https://www.domain.com/staging Login Url: https://www.domain.com/staging/wp-login.php Version: 5.2.4 Debug Mode: No Debug Log: No Debug Display: Yes Locale: en_US Multisite: No Page For Posts: Not Set Page On Front: Home (#5) [https://www.domain.com/staging/] Permalink Structure: Show On Front: page Wp Cron: Yes Settings ------------------------------------------- Version: 3.36.2 Db Version: 3.36.2 Course Catalog: Courses (#178) [https://www.domain.com/staging/?page_id=178] Membership Catalog: Membership Catalog (#3842) [https://www.domain.com/staging/?page_id=3842] Student Dashboard: Dashboard (#3844) [https://www.domain.com/staging/?page_id=3844] Checkout Page: Purchase (#3843) [https://www.domain.com/staging/?page_id=3843] Course Catalog Per Page: 24 Course Catalog Sorting: menu_order,ASC Membership Catalog Per Page: 12 Membership Catalog Sorting: menu_order,ASC Site Membership: Not Set Courses Endpoint: my-courses Edit Endpoint: Lost Password Endpoint: Vouchers Endpoint: Autogenerate Username: yes Password Strength Meter: yes Minimum Password Strength: strong Terms Required: no Terms Page: Not Set Checkout Names: required Checkout Address: required Checkout Phone: optional Checkout Email Confirmation: yes Open Registration: no Registration Names: required Registration Address: optional Registration Phone: hidden Registration Voucher: optional Registration Email Confirmation: no Account Names: required Account Address: required Account Phone: optional Account Email Confirmation: yes Confirmation Endpoint: confirm-payment Force Ssl Checkout: no Country: US Currency: USD Currency Position: left Thousand Separator: , Decimal Separator: .

With only LifterLMS, ListerLMS Helper and ListerLMS Labs enabled, the Course Catalog Per Page: 24 setting still only display 5 courses in the course catalog page.
The Student Dashboard located at: https://www.domain.com/staging/?page_id=3844&my-courses is also still showing up to 24 courses.
