How to retrieve all items in category not only the paginated

Hello all,

I have a custom category view with google map and hotel items ( www.wydawnictwofaraway.pl/noclegi ).
Pagination in this category is set to #5 items. Let's say I have a 6 items in this category. What I want to achieve is, I want to render all 6 items on the map, regardless pagination, but when I iterate through I get access only to #5 items (which is understandable).

How to get the data of all items returned to category view regardles to pagination?

Thanks

Hello

$this->items contains items of current page

you could set paging to a very high number,

but ALL is problematic you will run out of memory, not mention that it will be slow,

how many items will your category have maximum ?

I expect the category to have a couple hundred items.

I want to keep the pagination on the category view, but I would like to be able to render on the Google map all the items (in this case hotels) returned to the category, not only the limited number defined by pagination.

Is there any way to access the query reults or the query clause itself, similar to: so I could query the database without limit clause to get all the items?

Hello

currently only by setting all items to be retrieved by 1st page, which is slow because besides retrieving the value, the HTML of fields of 200 items will be created
