Shinystan and >1000 parameters

I only get to access to the first 1000 parameters when I launch shinystan. Googling, I found I’m not alone: how to raise limit above 1000 parameters? · Issue #187 · stan-dev/shinystan · GitHub
Is there a workaround for this? As far as I can tell, there is no option to load a subset of a stanfit object (e…g with a pars option). I’m running shinystan_2.5.0.

Hi,
you should be able to use shredder package GitHub - yonicd/shredder: API for exploring and iterating rstan fit objects to subset a fit to just certain parameters. I would however expect that with such a large model you might get a more efficient workflow by just calling various plotting functions frombayesplot yourself… Also, if you want to diagnose issues in a big model, it is almost always a good idea to start by reducing your dataset and model.

Best of luck with your model!

Thanks Martin! I haven’t seen the shredder package before. It seems extremely useful
