Why have the Last 15 minutes/Last hour/Last Day lists changed?

In these three sections, you used to get all the relevant threads, arranged by subsection (AIBU/CLassics/etc) - but now it is a random list, and you don't even get all the threads from that time period - you have to scroll to the bottom and load more.

It looks disorganised and chaotic, and is off-putting to try to read. Please change it back!!

Thanks for the feedback and apologies for the less than pleasant outcome of the changes. We've had to limit the number of results we show on those pages for performance reasons, with the site growing and the sheer volume of posts every day.

However, @SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius you're absolutely right in that the results on those pages would be a lot more useful if grouped by topic like they used to be, and the topics then sorted alphabetically again as they used to be. I will work on getting that changed for you.

Thanks for your patience while we sort that out.

The Last 15/hour/day pages should now be ordered by topic name and then by last post time within topic. Hope that helps and thanks again for all the feedback. Let me know if anything else is needed.

@Lalalandfill and @SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius based on your feedback, we've now raised the limits on these pages. It should now show up to 50 threads, and if you click Show more at the bottom, it will show up to 100 threads. Thanks. (I'm rubbish at choosing the right smiley so just pretend I've put the relevant one here)

@SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius I will look into this and let you know later today. Thanks.

I can increase the limit for the Last hour accordingly, but not Last Day as that will result in thousands of threads being displayed.

How about we get rid of Last Day as it's not really feasible to have it anymore given the volume of discussion these days on Mumsnet?

@rslsys could you possibly send through a screenshot of where it says 500 for you as it should say 50 and if you click 'Show more' it should say 100? Many thanks.

I'm working on this. Scout's honour. Thanks

Ok the Last 15 mins and Last hour pages should now show you the full results without further clicking.

The Last Day page shows you up to 500 results. It's already very slow to load that many results on a page, so we can't show more than that.

Finally, all those 3 pages can now only be viewed if you're logged in. This is a compromise to avoid overwhelming the system by anonymous users visiting those pages.

Let me know if you have any more issues, and thanks again for all your help!
