change the posts_per_page argument in WP Query

Hi,

I was wondering if it’s possible to alter the WP query arguments of the search filter.
You see I add the search filter arguments to the general arguments;

$args['search_filter_id'] = 71;

Which works perfectly. But these arguments have ‘posts_per_page => 9’. This display correctly.
See:
http://wbr.ikon.be/te-huur/
I also have a tab with a Google map that I would like to display all the results (not just 9 as is now the case; click the ‘Kaart’ tab on: http://wbr.ikon.be/te-huur/

So for that I would need to alter the arguments of $args['search_filter_id'] = 71; by changing posts per page to => -1. I was wondering if this is somehow possible?
Setting the regular argument to 'posts_per_page' => -1 doesn’t work because $args['search_filter_id'] = 71; overrides it.

Thanks in advance!

Again I forgot ‘follow-up via email’ so I’m checking it here.

I guess you would need to use is_page() to detect which page you are on and make two forms for filtering, identical except for the number of posts.

Thanks for the quick reply.
But that would mean two different search forms. (one with posts_per_page = 9 and one with -1).
But the search is done on the homepage and the results displayed on the ‘te-huur’ page. I just need those same results for two different ‘tabs’ so the same results with ‘9’ and ‘-1’, but for that i need to alter the search form argument that sets it to ‘9’. If that is possible.

$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
	$args = array(
		'order'=> 'ASC',
		'orderby' => 'date',
		'post_type' => 'panden', 
		'posts_per_page' => 9,
		'meta_key' => 'status',
		'meta_value' => array('Te huur', 'Te huur onder reservatie'),
	'paged' => $paged);
	$args['search_filter_id'] = 71;
	$pandenLoop = new WP_Query($args);

I thought I would create a new WP_Query with those same arguments and just alter the ”posts_per_page’ => 9,’. But these are set in ‘$args[‘search_filter_id’] = 71;’ and I don’t know how to access those arguments.

posts_per_page' => 9 has no effect here because it take that argument from $args['search_filter_id'] = 71;

I am not sure that we are understanding each other. Is a Skype voice session possible, so we can talk this thing through?

Yes, you can use get_field(). I have made many custom results.php templates for various ACF fields.
