Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

[Watiggi]

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but I don't think it deserves a whole new thread: I want to extend the number of threads it displays on one page. I know I can change the number of post it displays on one page but I can't seem to find out where to increase the number of threads per page. In the CivIV General Discussions forum, there are a number of pages of threads with new posts. It would be good if I could have them all on one page instead of having it distributed over several pages.

Thanks in advance,

Watiggi

Go to User CP at the row of links above the post. Then go to Edit Options on the left. Then scroll down until you see the option to set the number of posts per page. However, the max amount is 40 posts, the default is 20. Hope it helped a little!

 

[Watiggi]

Thanks. That only changes the posts per page though (which I have done). It doesn't seem to change the number of threads per page though and I cannot seem to find a way in which to do it. It currently shows 45 threads at once, so I don't know if that can be increased. It would be great if it can.

 

[The Yankee]

Ah, misread that. But I don't think there's an option for that...curiously so.

Isn't there an option to change the "view" (how they are displayed) of the threads? A different view might show more items.

 

[Watiggi]

Do you mean change the skin? I have tried changing the skin but it doesn't affect the number of threads per page.

UserCP->Options->Scroll down to thread display.

UserCP->Options->Scroll down to thread display.

Then what? The only options there are:
*Show sigs - not relevant.
*Show avatars - not relevant.
*Show images - not relevant.
*Thread display mode - only options are "linear - oldest first" or "linear - newest first". Neither of them affect the number of threads that appear on a page.
*Number of posts to show per page - Exactly what I am after except this only affects the number of posts per page, not the number of threads per page.
*Default thread age cut off - only gives the time frame of the threads to show.

What I would be after is a "Number of threads to show per page". I would have thought the "Number of post to show per page" option would have been it, but it isn't. Any ideas?

There is no option that I've found that will increase/decrease the number of threads shown per page.

Ok. Thanks anyway

WHo wrote the source code (I need to Know to whom I am sending a box of chocolates)
And who came up with this idea.

 

[Turner]

Source code? If you're talking about vBulletin, Jelsoft wrote it. If not, then which source code are you referring to?

i think he was just kind of praising the site tbh

 

[RegentMan]

Random question that I thought of while mowing the lawn:

Can a poster be warned by a moderator for flaming himself?

 

[BCLG100]

what like

'BCLG your such an A$$hole'???

erm who would do that?

 

[Turner]

Technically, yes, you could.

But like BCLG said...who would do that?

 

[Watiggi]

I would imagine a list of psychologists in their area would be more appropriate

That's been happening to me all the time (Using Mozilla Firefox), it usually goes away with a refresh. And it's not that much of a trouble.
