Would it be possible to add an option for 100 posts per page?

}
It might also be advantageous to set the default to more than 10, especially for super-long development threads.
Increasing Posts per Page adds more load onto the servers as there's more data to read and return in a single query from the database.
50 is probably a good max, and setting everyone to 10 will help keep the load down for new users who are happy with the default (also the Google bot has it's settings at 10ppp - makes my life hard I'm on 20ppp ).
It's up to the server admins at the end of the day, but I'm not sure they'll spring for it.

Click "USER CP" at the top.
Then "Edit Options" on the left side.
Lastly, find the "Thread Display Options", as in the picture in the first post of this thread.

You're welcome! Yeah for sure. I wish there was 75 or 100!
I would like the ability to have more posts per page. It definitely makes searching for things easier.
What I normally have to do if I'm searching for something specific in a thread:
Code:
press(ctrl + F);
type(keyword);
while (specific_thing != found) {
click(next_page);
wait_until(page_loaded);
for (var i = 0; i < keyword.length; i++) {
if (keyword != relevant) {
press(F3);
}
else {
specific_thing = found;
break;
}
}
}
The more pages there are, the longer this takes.

I find the mouse hover preview popups quite annoying. They cover up way too much data in adjacent lines. There should be a client option to turn it off. Could someone look into this, please?

When you are in a forum such as rom development and you hover over a thread title, a preview of the thread pops up.
I think that is what he means.

Yep, Denco7, that's what I was talking about. I spent a few hours with Google looking for a way to disable it but it turns out to be a server side thing in the HTML.

Wow, that is large! Glad I've never run into that large popup...
Funny never really noticed them as have to hover over rather than scroll over to see, think the best way to get around it is just to scroll in the blank between subject & rating if they are frequent.

Yeah, I know where the safe zones are but I like to use the cursor as a place holder while I read. There is a way in the site HTML that allows the client the option to turn those obnoxious pop-ups off and I would like the webmaster to look into it. But really, who in the heck needs them in the first place?
They look like nothing more than the ALT text on the HTML links displaying the first few characters of a post. The problem looks to be the use a line breaks that cause them to run over a few lines. If you use these in somewhere like the Q&A forum it's quote handy to get an idea of a post before you click on it.
I use it all the time to try and decide if I can help before I go clicking to go in and then going back out.

Hello there!
I have a small suggestion to help minimize duplicate threads.
This is especially prevalent in the HD2 forum where every day people make new threads about Android on HD2 (which, I am guilty of doing too...my apologies )
So, on some other vBulletin boards in which I am a member, they have a great feature.
When someone is creating a new thread and puts in the thread title, the board displays previous threads that have similar titles. I really think it is necessary to have that functionality in here too.
Just my 2c
Thanks for reading!
It's one I have suggested a few times before, but I am not sure what vB mod it is.
Any ideas?
Is this it?

Thanks, I'll stick on the admin's list and see what he says
thanks for reading
I hope the admins can realize this, it would be a great feature.

So I looked into this and turned on a plugin that shows related threads at the bottom of each thread page. Two problems with it: 1. It's not that useful 2. It affects sever performance.
If anyone knows of a plugin that will search as you type a new thread title in, that would be great.
Don't know about the real time search (I am not an admin so I don't know the first thing about vBulliten) but here is the screen shot of an example of what I was talking about from the avsforum board in the first post and the relevant plug in:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and here is the page for the plug in:
http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=151714
I understand that this plug in is heavy on the server. As such, is it possible to turn it on just for some high activity sub forums?

If you have a problem, how can anyone help, when they don't know, what phone you got, what ROM, What Kernel is installed, what caused the current problem and what you had done to solve it.
All these matters, for an XDA member to even THINK of helping you and they might just ignore, since you could not be bothered to provide the details. Most of all specific phones have specific forums and you should first use the search for that forum or look in the WIKI for that particular Phone, Imagine some one gave you an answer meant for a another phone that is not similar to yours, you could end up spending a lot of time and money trying to recover it. So be wise and do your part, search for your phone in this forum and post it there after you have tried searching for the answers you are seeking in that specific forum.
Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.

If you are using XDA App or Tapatalk, long press on the post and select :good: Thanks Its easier to give "Feedback" in this manner than make an additional post.
I'm suggesting to open threads in correct sections and explain the situation thoroughly.
Thread closed.
I could find no other answers to this question except one in a Samnsung Galaxy thread, and that didn't help.
I did notice there was one other question on this topic... But it was submitted by me almost 8 months ago. In response to that post, I received a response similar to one you would expect from a bloated government—a moderator instructing me—not a brief sentence as to what should be a simple answer—but instructions on how to create more post clutter.
OK.... So how do I subscribe to a forum using the website??? It is very easy and intuitive on the mobile app.
Here is a screenshot of my screen in Google Chrome.
http://imgur.com/yt3OLnh
I must be blind, but I can find nothing.... under any option or tab or anywhere (at least not obvious in any way) on how to subscribe to the forum I am in.
One suggestion if I may... since this data is so easily discoverable in the mobile app (it shows me what forums I am subscribed to), can't you take that data for that user and apply it to the website???? It would seem very logical and efficient.
Please advise....and I am hoping I can find my way back here....
@syntropic,
Since I use the XDA 2013 Beta - 1024 theme, these instructions use it.
To subscribe to a thread, first, scroll down to the bottom of any XDA page and click on the Style Chooser found in the left-hand corner. Click "XDA 2013 Beta - 1024". Now, navigate to the thread to which you would like to subscribe, and look for the "Subscribe to thread" button as shown in this screenshot:

Thanks, I see it on the general forum. However it's not enabled on every subforum, such as http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/lg-leon/lg-leon. Our only option is using the RSS feed in the pages source code. Subforums without the "subscribe" button also do not have their own rss feed.
I also tried to modify the subscribe link but it goes to a different subforum. 1507 is the lg leon forum id, but this shows something else:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/subscription.php?do=addsubscription&f=1507
It looks like our only option is page2rss.com. This has me wondering if vbulletin gets paid a fee for every rss feed and subscribe button.
Hi,
I'm curious if other Folds' have the same problem as mine.
I think this is only happening from the latest uldate, I am now on Android10, 4.14.117-18521059 kernel (apr 24).
The problem is that menu items are not rendered into one line ie in Settings:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have set the smallest available font:
Is this screen looks the same on your Fold, guys?
I dont understand the problem im on May patch android 10 and using nova and on the 4th dot font size
Hi, I took a screenshot from a different Galaxy phone (not Fold), and all the items are rendered next to the switches:
Ps: I'm not using any launchers or mods, everything is stock.
If someone has Fold, could you please post a reply with a screenshot of connection (or any other) settings took of the outer screen?
Thank you!
