Can't limit number of posts
I'd like to limit number of posts scraped, for example scrape 5 posts, but when I set maxPostCount to 5 - I get more posts scraped.
Is this expected behaviour and if yes - is there other way for me to specifically limit posts number?

maxItems is set to 1000 in your input

Do you want to scrape just 5 posts and all comments from them?

Yes, just 5 posts and comments from them

I am working on a fix

Additional info: maxPostCount works as expected when using this as a startUrl: https://www.reddit.com/search/?q=pension+consolidation

Sorry for the delay. It should be working now.
