How to set maximum image files upload at once with hook?

 I'm trying to set maximum image files per upload with the following hook:

$wire->addHookBefore('InputfieldImage::render', function(HookEvent $event) {

 $inputfield = $event->object;
 $inputfield->setMaxFiles(20);

});

but when I go to edit a page with Images fields I'm getting the following error:

ProcessWire: ProcessPageEdit: Method InputfieldImage::setMaxFiles does not exist or is not callable in this context

What I'm looking for is let the editor upload 20 images per upload. If he wants to upload 50 images I don't want to let him upload them all at once.

Sorry, I don't understand what you are trying to do ? 20 + 20 + 10 would work? What is the reason for that request? What is "one upload"? I think you need to be more precise to get better answers.

My php default shared server settings have max_file_uploads = 20 so I would like to limit to 20 in ProcessWire too cause if I upload for example 30 images at once only the 20 will be uploaded. The other 10 will look like they're uploading forever and this is confusing for the editors. So, is it possible to limit it to 20 in ProcessWire or should I increase the number of max_file_uploads? Also, If I increase it wouldn't be bad for the server performance?

Like with "setMaxFilesize" you're getting a warning on ProcessWire that you're not allowed for example to upload a file with size more than what you've set in "setMaxFilesize", I wanna do the same thing for the maximum files the editor can upload at once. I wanna let him upload max 20 and when those 20 uploaded he should be able to upload 20 max more and so on.

Ok something else is going on. On localhost where PHP has max_file_uploads = 20 too (same as live server) I tried to upload 22 images at once and it worked fine. On live server when I tried to upload the same 22 images I got 13 identical errors in chrome console and 13 images stuck at "uploading" forever...

That's because the file input field uses ajax requests for the files. So each request only holds a single file.
