How to Limit the paginate in cakephp ?

Assume that i have 400 records.
I need to get only 25 records from 50th record to 75th record and need to display 5 recor

Answer 1

You can set conditions for the pagination.

function listRecords()
  {
  $this->paginate = array(
    'conditions' => array('Model.id >=' => 50, 'Model.id <=' => 75),
    'limit' => 5
    );
  $this->paginate('Model');
  );

EDIT:

A solution from here:

$this->paginate = array(
  'limit' => 20,
  'totallimit' => 1000
  );

And then in the Model:

public function paginateCount($conditions = null, $recursive = 0, $extra = array())
  {
  if( isset($extra['totallimit']) ) return $extra['totallimit'];
  }
