I need a little help

[Skyhi]

I used to get 20 posts per page when I viewed a thread....now I'm getting 10. I have no idea what I did, but could someone tell me what to do to get my settings back to 20? TYIA!

You did nothing wrong.

I got a suggestion for vBulletin to bring it down to 10 posts a page to cut down on server processing and bandwidth.

Their theory is that most people dont read the first 20 messages again so by having the server generate the pages with that many messages not only cuts down on processing time and power but conserves bandwith.

Makes sense to me so I am giving it a try. This should also make for faster page loads for everyone as well.

I am keeping an eye on it.

I thought I was going crazy. Thank you.

BTW you can change how many messages per page are displayed in the user control panel.

Look for "Number of Posts to Show Per Page" option and set it as you like.
