More topics per page.

[Rumple Foreskin]

Whenever you go into any forum or even use the 'New Posts' button it only lists 20 results on a page. When you have been gone a few days and click new posts it is a pain in the ass to have 30 new pages to go through. Is there any way you can change it so it displays more topics at once? Say 50 or so.

Come on J-man, you're an awesome forum guy thingy leader person and just an option would be nice. Kind of a convienance thingy, not really a problem.

There is a bonus in it for ya too. Do it and I'll stop calling you the J-man. Wow, what a deal!

My GTPlanet>Edit Options> Scroll down and find Thread Display Options. Set it up however you wish.

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

I knew that. This was just a test. A test you passed. Congratulations.

Thanx anyway J-dogg.

*Edit* Hmm... I see the option for displaying more posts per page, but not one for showing more actual topics per page. Perhaps I am blind?

 

[sUn]

Maybe this'll help more.

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

That is so not what I mean.

You know how you can change your options so you can show more than 20 posts per page, well, I want to do the same thing but with threads.

Gah, I guess I'll have to bust out photoshop and make a mock up of what I mean and how it'd look.

That's what my screenshot shows, it shows that you can show threads older than the default date.

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

No you asshat! Just hold on and I will show you.

That's what my screenshot shows, it shows that you can show threads older than the default date.

RF means so that on 1 page there could be like a billion-squillion threads rather than like 20.

 

[911_Carrera]

I understand what you mean.

You want more than 20 threads displayed when you click the "new posts" button.

I'll have a look to see if I can see anything, the more eyes, the better, right?

 

[eddieturner2002]

Well I couldn't find an option to change that unfortunately because I agree there should be more threads on 1 page than the forum default.

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

Here!

 

[911_Carrera]

So I guess this thread is going back to the original post then.

Can you set up an option to display more threads per page for us Jordan? Or are we stupid enough to not see it anywhere?

 

[sUn]

Here!

That's pretty much the same thing as setting how many thread to display on one page, right?

I swear I've seen this before.

 

[eddieturner2002]

No not really. Bit if I was you i'd back down before you start to look like Blackbird aswell as sounding like him.

 

[911_Carrera]

I can now see 25 threads per page.

All I did was set the posts to 100 per page and the threads to all threads.

Still sucks though.

 

[Jordan]

I increased the search results page to 25 for you. There is a bug, I guess you could call it, in Internet Explorer, which will not show a table's contents before the closing </table> tag has been loaded. I didn't realise this while creating our current style (GTP6), and enclosed the entire page in a table. Therefore, long pages of 50 threads would slow down the delivery of those pages, in addition to the extra load on the server caused by generating all those thread statistics upon each page view.

 

[911_Carrera]

Ah so it wasn't me that made it 25 threads per page then.

Cheers for doing that though. 👍
