Show all posts on one page feature

[mikey]

Is anyone else having trouble using the show all posts on one page feature? I can not seem to get it to work.

if you go into your usercp area, you can set the number of posts per page. I use 40, and it works pretty well. I;m not sure that you can get more than 40, since putting in a larger number in the url by hand doesnt work.

I have that set, but please let me explain a little more. When searching through a long thread, I like to use the "show printable version" link at the bottom of the page and then on the top and bottom of the "printable version" page use the link to "show all XXX posts on one page" link. I know it used to work because I have used it for several TyTool threads as well as Xtreme threads. When I use that link now, it only reloads the current page. It is helpful, to me, to use the word find function in IE or the google tool bar to quickly navigate through 500 or 600 posts to the area of interest of the thread.

The "Show all posts on one page" feature does not work for me either. As Mikey says, it seems to just reload the current page.

I've used both IE and netscape and neither will display all posts.
I've only tried it on the TyTool thread and working DVD players thread, so it might be thread dependant.

I assume this feature works for some or most people. How can we figure out what is going wrong?

Same here on numerous threads. It worked before I'm sure and works on other sites that appear to use the same BB software (although perhaps not the same version).

It's a lifeblood function for me as I try to dig through all the ocntent here. Here's hoping it gets fixed soon.

Just wondering if anyone ever got it to work?

I just tried it for the TyTool and DVDlab/Chapters thread with IE 5.5 without success.

Interesting.. looks like a bug in new version of vbulletin. Will get this fixed ASAP.
Thanks for the notice guys.

[Vadim]

I think, I got the fix installed. Whoever had the problem. Please test and get back to me.
Thank you so much.

Vadim-

I just tried this feature on the following thread. When I clicked on the link to show the 40 posts on one page, it reloaded the first page.

I just tried it on the tytool 7r7 and mfs_ftp threads. It still reloads the first page.
Thanks for the attempt,
Mikey

OK, I'll submit this to vbulletin for further investigation. This is not an issue here at DDB its vbulletin's error in the code.
I'll keep you updated...

nope, the "show all posts on one page" feature of the 'printable version' option does not work.
