$smwgQMaxInlineLimit is a configuration parameter that sets the maximal number of rows ever printed by a single embedded query on a single page or a query on special page "Ask"Provides an interface that assists users with creating and executing semantic queries, even if a value for the limit parameter was specified explicitly. The configuration parameter was introduced in Semantic MediaWiki 1.0Released on 31 December 2007 and compatible with MW 1.9.x - 1.12.x..

Note that the limit set with this configuration parameter does not apply to result format "Count"Returns just the number of results, instead of the results themselves..

Note that embedded queries and queries on special page "Ask"Provides an interface that assists users with creating and executing semantic queries will always use "250" as a default value for the limit parameter.

Until Semantic MediaWiki 2.5.3Released on 8 July 2017 and compatible with MW 1.23.0 - 1.29.x.1 there was a bug which resulted in embedded queries to fall back to the limit "500" if the limit set for it surpassed the limit which was set with this configuration parameter.2

Default setting

$smwgQMaxInlineLimit = 500;

This means that a maximum of "500" results will be displayed even if one specifies a higher value for the limit parameter of queries.
