Can someone remind me how to set this up so that I can see all the posts on one page? I did have it set but I can't remember how it is done.

Glad its not just me who has had this disappear! I can't bloody remember how I did it either.

claig · 16/05/2016 17:24

Grin It is probably the most useful feature of all and I can't find how to do it anywhere

It should be in Customise. However, I've recently discovered that Customise doesn't allow you to make some changes now,

claig · 16/05/2016 17:33

Thanks, FruStefanOla

I found Customise. For anyone who can't remember it is on the drop down menu on the little arroe to the right of Talk. There is a maximum of 100 posts per thread there. Looked at FAQ under Customise and it says that anyone who joined after Jan 2015 is limited to 100 per page to speed up viewing etc. I joined years ago and my full page posts just disappeared today.

Can I get them back or is that it?

Glad it isn't just me! I've always had the entire thread in one page, and now it has switched to Pages with no warning. Sad

trixymalixy · 16/05/2016 17:38

I've just been trying to change back to all messages on one page too. I joined in 2006 Hmm.

biscuitkumquat · 16/05/2016 17:52

I'm normally open to change, but this is just a step too far Shock

Can we change back please

claig · 16/05/2016 17:55

'I'm normally open to change, but this is just a step too far '

I agree, this was the number one best feature out there

I want it back to all one page too - I haven't got time to be clicking backwards and forwards remembering which page I'm on, I just won't bother reading half of what I do now as it will take too long, and I suspect a lot of people will feel the same.

I liked "all on one page" as I could start at the bottom and just scroll up - change it back now please Mumsnet - you are not Netm**s!!! Sad

claig · 16/05/2016 18:07

Yes, you could also do a Ctrl-F and search for a word or username throughout the whole thread

BertPuttocks · 16/05/2016 18:35

I want mine back too.

I don't like clicking through different pages just to read a single thread.

TheWizardOfOs · 16/05/2016 18:39

Me too. Put it back please.

HungryHorace · 16/05/2016 18:39

Mine has vanished too...I've been here since before 2015 too. Not happy.

whatsitallabout1 · 16/05/2016 18:48

Arghh..I hate it too.

AintNobodyHereButUsKittens · 16/05/2016 19:06

Me too. Won't someone think of the poor Tube commuters? I want to load a full long thread as I go into the station so I've got something to read while I'm underground and can't refresh.
Pleeeeeaaaase give it back!

AssembleTheMinions · 16/05/2016 19:25

I was just coming in to say the same thing.

I don't like this, I want it back

bluebump · 16/05/2016 19:44

Oh good, it's not just mine then!

MegBusset · 16/05/2016 19:50

Yes me too, I find the Pages view unreadable. I'm using a Kindle Fire. Please can someone tell me how to change it back?!

Piffpaffpoff · 16/05/2016 19:51

I'm not happy with this either. I joined in 2006 and would like you one page feature back please MNHQ!! Angry

SeanConnerysChestHair · 16/05/2016 19:51

Mine has gone to max 100 per page too. I've been here, under various names, since 2001! It's rubbish. I hate pages.

piknmixer · 16/05/2016 19:53

Happened to me too, just missed three pages off a thread and replied thinking there were only a few replies when it had moved on massively! Confused

MegBusset · 16/05/2016 19:54

Oh, I've found the option as described by claig Thanks

MNHQ please don't mess with my settings again!

TrillKitten · 16/05/2016 20:00

Sounds like it was changed to manage the load on the back end ( fnarr ). On a site this busy, loading hundreds of messages at a time will hammer the server pretty badly. I've seen people complaining about advertising on this site, and I see people complaining about reasonable measures to keep the cost of the site down. Feel a bit sorry for MNHQ sometimes, not sure how they're supposed to run this thing in a way that we'd approve of! Confused
