Select all in gmail only selects 50 emails

I want to clear out my whole inbox, but when I tick the select all box it only grabs the 50 on the current page. Is there a way to select every conversation in the inbox at once?

tick the box at the top, then look just above the first email - there's a line saying all 50 on this page are selected, with a link to select all conversations in the folder. click that one. you can also raise the page size to 100 in settings, general, maximum page size, but the link is the real fix.
