Questions about Paginator's setup

Hi everyone,

I am a new-fish of the CAKEPHP and want to take advantage of the
PaginatorHelper and PaginatorComponent, and added this function to the
blog app which appeared in the cakephp document's tutorial, but I
come across some problems:

My class PostsController likes below and it works(every page shows 2
records, while the database's posts table has 3 records):

class PostsController extends AppController{
public $name = 'Problems';
public $helpers = array('Html','Form','Paginator');
public $components = array('Session','Paginator' =>
array('settings' => array('maxLimit'=>1)));

public $paginate = array(
'limit' => 2,
'maxLimit' => 2,
);

public function index(){
$data = $this->paginate('Post');
$this->set('posts',$data);
}
}

the question is if I replace the $components by this: public
$components = array('Session','Paginator'); (remove the settings
array), then the page shows all the 3 records(the $paginate dose not
work at all!)

I don't know why the var $paginate does not work, and follow the
document's Pagination section, I want add a conditions to the paginate
but it does not work.

How to solve this problem?Thank you.
