Description
We are using list combine, filter and pagination. Everything seems to work fine, except for the pagination. We have set the pagination on the list that will incorporate the second list. Both list contain 5 items, so the combined list should consist of a total of 10 items. It now only shows 5 items, even though we have set the pagination to 10. We are using V2 attributes.

Expected Behavior
Paginate all items in both lists.
Actual Behavior
Only shows 5 items, even though the pagination is set to 10 a page. When pagination is turned off, it shows all 10 items, as it should.

Hey @studiopiraat!
Spotted something in your HTML that’s likely the root cause here. Your pagination element in the DOM is a bare <div class="pagination"></div> — no native Webflow Next/Previous buttons inside it. For fs-list-load="pagination" to work, Webflow needs to generate those controls first, and right now they’re missing.
Here’s how to fix that:
- In Webflow Designer, select your primary CMS Collection List (the one with
fs-list-combine="cases" and fs-list-load="pagination")
- Open the Settings panel on the right
- Enable Paginate Items and set your items per page to 10
- Enable Show Page Count as well — this helps the List Load attribute detect pagination faster
- Webflow will then generate the Next and Previous buttons inside the pagination element automatically
- Publish and test
That’s the first thing to get right — the missing pagination controls are a prerequisite for fs-list-load="pagination" to function at all.
Once that’s done, here’s the honest situation: the interaction between List Combine and List Load pagination isn’t explicitly covered in the docs, and we’ve seen this combination come up as a known challenge without a definitive recorded solution. It’s possible everything works once native pagination is properly set up — but it’s also possible pagination will only count the primary list’s 5 native items rather than the combined 10. 
After enabling pagination, check whether it shows 2 pages (5 items each) or 1 page with all 10. That’ll tell us whether the combine + pagination interaction is behaving correctly.
If things are still off after that, we’ll loop in the team to dig deeper on whether there’s a known workaround for this setup. 
Hi @Support-Finn ,
Thank you for your response! It actually is the Webflow pagination and I have only changed the styling of the pagination buttons inside of it.
Could you help us out what might be the problem with the DOM not reading it as the native webflow pagination?
Thanks in advance!
