Certain threads display a "all" button which shows you all of the replies on one page. This is inconsistent and doesn't always show up. I'm wondering if I can view threads on one page by adding a code to the url?
If the number of pages under x amount then you will see the [All] link next to the page numbers. Like this:
As you can see this post has 6 pages of replies so far: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4104852.0;all <===working since right now it's 6 pages
On the other hand when the pages are too many then you do not see the [All] link.
and even adding ;all value in the url also does not work:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=996318.0;all <===not working since too many pages.
Now, I do not know the value for the x. May be theymos or any other member who noticed it before they will know.
Also would I be able to do the same for a users post history?
- In the post history there are no such feature.The reason not to use the [All] (when there are too many pages) is...
When you will have too many data to retrieve from a table, the server then uses too much resources which can hang the whole system.
For a web application it might end up time out error (504 status error) in the client side. So, no system administrator will do that poor system design.
