Just jotting down a few quick notes (sorry, on a train, in a hurry - didn't check anything):
There's a couple of other features that relate to this change. What comes to mind: - the jump-to-post feature assumes single-page threads. It will now need to first jump to the right page, then jump to the right post - java-script hook the back-button to go back to threads rather than back one page (should be user configurable, some like it one way or the other) - any change should be optional to avoid people freaking out Also, most people are not on a SAT or mobile network connection. If the general consensus is that the old-style non-paginated forum works well for the standard user then it should remain the default setup and pagination should be made an option or vice versa. -- Janus ps. Does this mean that the uber-huge-if-sentence for post display and sorting is dead now? It was one of my favorites ;) On 07/11/2012 07:46 AM, David Anderson wrote: > I added a "posts per page" preference, > which replaces the existing preferences. > This is deployed on SETI@home. > Please comment. > -- David > > On 08-Jul-2012 2:53 PM, Raistmer wrote: >> It's impossible to operate with long threads on websites powered with BOINC >> via SAT or mobile network connections, they just can load to the end.
