By Default SharePoint groups pages has the paging limit set to 30. So if you have more than 500 groups it will be a nightmare to find the particular group that you are looking for.
There is a very simple way of editing the number of groups that appear in the _layouts/15/groups.aspx page.
- First go to “https://yoursite/_layouts/15/groups.aspx“
- View the page source of the site
- Search “WebQuerySourceHref” in the page
- Copy the Guid for List and View from the WebQuerySourceHref and note it somewhere we will use it later.
- Now past the following URL in the address “http://youtsite/_layouts/viewedit.aspx?List={listguidhere}&View={viewguidhere}“.
- Now it will open the view in an editable form as a normal list view.
- find the item limit at the bottom and increase the limit to any number you prefer.
- Save the view.
- Browse to “https://yoursite/_layouts/15/groups.aspx” now you will see the same numbers of group as stated in the item limit in one page.
- This changes the paging number for displaying the groups in groups.aspx page.
