Could not pull content from connection due to error

[jmstew3]

Describe the bug
On a site where I have 119 pages available to Pull Content from, I am receiving a "Could not pull content from connection due to error", triggered after I use "Screen Options" to change the Pagination > "Post Per Page" value to more than 100.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Go to 'Distributor'
2. Click on 'Pull Content'
3. Make sure you 'Pull Content from' a source that has more than 101 pages
4. Click on 'Screen Options'
5. Under 'Pagination', change the 'Posts per page' value to a number greater than 100 (example: 101)
6. Click 'Apply'
7. See error

Expected behavior
I expected to be able to see all of the pages available to 'Pull Content from' on one screen, eliminating the need for pagination (i.e. 1 of 2)

Screenshots

• Screenshot of the error when a value greater than 100 is keyed into the 'Posts per page' section of 'Screen Options':

• Screenshot of pagination working properly when a value of 100 or less is keyed in:

Additional context
First time I have experienced this issue. I have been pulling from more than 100 pages for quite some time now (~6 months), and did not notice the issue until today. The only thing I can think is that somehow there is an issue with Chrome and my new MacBook Pro with M1 silicon. Either that, or this is a bug with Distributor's most recent plugin update.

@dkotter perhaps this is related to the changes in #811?

[dkotter]

@jmstew3 Thanks for the report. This is a direct result of the changes made in #811. We had a maximum limit set on the per_page argument to 100. WordPress itself enforces this behind the scenes for any REST endpoint that utilizes the per_page argument.

I've created a PR that addresses this by removing that limit and renaming that argument to get around the enforcing coming from WordPress core. This should address the issue you're seeing.

Awesome work. Thanks!
