Page numbers?

[anonemouse 1]

Is there any way we can bring back the full listing of page numbers for the individual threads? It's a little irritating to have to go weed through several pages to find the one you were last on, since the highest options available are "10" and "last page". Especially when there are dozens of pages and several pages have been added since the last time the thread was read.

I'm not sure what you mean. If there are more than a few pages in any thread, the page numbers have always been shown as "1,2,3,...last" -- haven't they?

In any event, you can jump to a particular page by clicking on the little down arrow symbol to the right of the word "last" in the page number indicator; that lets you jump to a page number of your choosing. You have to be IN the thread to do that, though; perhaps you used to be able to do that from the forum page?

Let me know if that's what you're referring to, or if it's something else.

I don't know if it's a setting I can change in my CP or not, but what I see is this: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... last page. The numbers between the 10th page and the last page are hidden. Of course, that's just on the forum page, next to the thread title. Once I am in the thread, (take the "right to choose" thread in RnR for example) I get something that looks like 1 2 3 11 > Last>>. If you want to get to page 20, for example, you have to click on several different pages, since on any page you choose, it shows links to the two pages on either side of the page you are on and a link to the page that is 10 pages ahead of the one you are on (for example, if you click 11, it shows links to pages 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 21.

That will work, thanks. I had forgotten all about that function. I could have sworn, though, that all the pages in a thread used to be shown on the forum page.
