Title: Question about viewing topics. Post by: Marvin on March 04, 2008, 08:42:13 pm Hi guys,
Generally when I sign on, I hit the "view new posts since last visit" button. Something I have noticed is that on topics that have more than 1 page is that there is sometimes a "new" button then sometimes there is an "all posts" button. I prefer to look at all the posts on 1 page, but often do not have the choice to. Why does that choice to be random? Just checking, Marvin Title: Re: Question about viewing topics.

This happens because of a setting that limits the number of posts displayed on a page; once this number is reached, additional page(s) are created, hence 1, 2... etc. etc... If this needs to be raised, let me know... It's currently set to the following settings: Time before topic is warned as old on reply (?): 120 days Number of topics per page in the message index: 20 topics Number of posts per page in a topic page: 10 posts Number of posts for a hot topic (?): 15 posts Number of posts for a very hot topic (?): 25 posts Max topic size to show "All" posts (?): 15 0 to never show "All" posts Enable previous/next topic links (?): Yes Title: Re: Question about viewing topics. Post by: Marvin on March 05, 2008, 02:22:20 pm Ok, Now I am starting to understand. There is a limit on the number of posts that shows the "all" button.
I was wondering why sometimes I saw it and sometimes I did not. Thanks for the info. Marvin |
