Feature request: pp as a configurable setting.

Dear Velocio (but posted publically for more feedback),

I typically read the forum using the "New Posts" or "Today's Posts" links.

Both of them return the 25 newest threads. As I have a nice big monitor, I'd like to get the latest 50 or 100 threads on a single page.

I've noticed that I can append &pp=50; to the search URL and that works nicely. But because each search gets a unique ID, I need to add it in each time I re-use the "New Posts" button.

Is it possible to add "posts per page" as a config item in the control panel/options? Is this sensible or is there a better option? Or have I just not found an existing tickybox?

Isn't that in your user config already?

It might be, but I can't find it. I'm looking in control panel -> edit options.

I can't find it either, maybe it was available when it was Vanilla.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
