Can we have a 'number of items per page' option please?

Show-Me-The-Money

There's currently a discussion in the GIOL forum about offers being lost due to the number of new threads being created. Frequently users must goto page 2 or even page 3 to find recent offers.

It may have already been suggested but a 'Number of items per page' option would sort that out. Perhaps the BGs could suggest this to the site developer as I'm sure it's something that could be implemented fairly easily.

thanks

Not an ideal solution, but if you navigate to a forum using a bookmark in your browser then you can specify how many threads per page you want to display in the bookmark link.

For example, if you want to display 40 threads per forum page rather than the standard 20 on GIOL then you could bookmark this link:

http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.html?f=41&pp=40

Alter the &pp=40 to suit the number you want.

I use that on DFW because the threads on the board move down so quickly.

If you go to the top of your screen and select :

Quick Links -> Edit Options

On the next screen, under "Thread Display Options" it says :

"Use this option to set the number of posts to show in a thread before splitting the display into multiple pages."

I'm guessing your dropdown says "Forum Default" - you can change it to a maximum of 40

That changes the numbers of posts per page to show in a thread.

It doesn't effect the number of threads displayed on one page of a board though, which is what I think Show-Me-The-Money was asking about? If I read it right?
