How to increase posts per page?

Why did they increase the number of posts per page? It takes me three days of riding just to reach the bottom now. Absolute nightmare.

The forum settings are set by default according to the admins' preferences, but if you aren't a fan of them, you can always tweak things in your own profile to suit your taste.

Just head over to Options -> Edit Options and pick this one here:



And boom, problem solved.

Well, you can't set it to 25. 🙂

You just have to make do with the tools at hand.

Hey, just one thing...
How much was this rigged before the admin stepped in?
I had a few pages from that "Answering questions while pretending I know what I'm doing" thread saved in my bookmarks, but now when I click them, it just dumps me at the very end. And there's so much stuff in there to dig through again...
😢
If anyone knows, that’d be a huge help...

20 per page 🙂

Thanks
🙂

It would honestly be quite refreshing if we didn't have to deal with pagination at all, and instead, the posts just flowed continuously, one right after the other.🤣

I'm pretty sure it was actually 25 🤔

Well, I find myself in agreement with that assessment.😁

I don't think so, but if you want me to be 100% sure, I can check with the admin who handled the swap.

It was back when we were at 25, and I just stuck with the default settings.

I mean, I think it is, since I still can't find my bookmarks or whatever...
grr

Checked. It was 20.

25. 😛

I am dead certain about this. 🙂 I remember scrolling through the old USPS thread about 400 posts ago—somewhere around page 360, I think—using the standard settings. And yet, here I am, making my very first appearance on page 460 just by bumping the display up to 20 posts per page. 😬

Honestly, my memory is basically photographic when it comes to tracking threads on the USPS boards. 🙈 😂

Thanks, I managed to dig up a bunch of stuff thanks to what's in Gabbard's signature.

Edit:
If it was 20, then setting them to 20 now should give me the same result as when I saved it.
And since I saved, like, page 130 Viking and now they aren't on 130, I guess I'm not sure if that's how it works...
But knowing my computer, maybe it's just me...
😁

I’m pretty sure it was 25, but man, it feels way different now that I’ve dropped it down to 20. 🤷

hey, don't go deleting these 20 yet, I swear I'm gonna buy a machine gun...
Spent like 3 hours redoing this shit last night...

Now they're probably gonna change it to 25 and you won't even be able to tune it to 20 anymore 😲

Alright, here’s the copy-paste for you all:

Sophia Castillo35:How many posts were on a page before you bumped it up to 40?
Alexander Graham Bell:The default?
Sophia Castillo35:Yeah. Was it 20 or 25?
Alexander Graham Bell:It was 20. There were options for 10, 20, 30, and 40, with 20 being the default.
Sophia Castillo35:Okay, because people keep insisting it was 25. I thought the same thing.
Alexander Graham Bell:That’s not right. I know it wasn't 25 because I used to divide the total page count by 2 whenever someone sent me a direct link to a specific page. That math wouldn't work if there were 25 posts per page.

I honestly don't know what to say to those of you who swear it was 25, since that wasn't even an option. 🤷 Good luck with that. 🤔 😬
