large number of pages now visible

I just noticed that there are around 167 pages on the AA Board and other boards seem to have many more pages than before. Is this by design?

I guess it is a user error. Somehow instead of showing the last 5 days of topics, it was changed to the last year.

This isn't something users can set, looks like a problem on the FT side of things...

click 'preferences' and set it to 5 days or whatever desired period you choose.

I guess somehow everybody suddenly preferred to see the whole years' worth of pages.

AFAIK this is FT's decision as to what the "Default" setting is. They can set this to whatever they wish. It has been changed to: "Show topics for the past year".
I have no problem with it is in fact FT wanted that to occur.

THe UA forum shows 189 pages to select from!

Just to assist Dan et al in unravelling the problem [if this was not deliberate] - I just clicked on highest page 189 of the UA forum, and that seems to be set to take me back to only SIX months, whereas clicking on page "10" of this Forum goes back a year.

Seems like our defaults got messed up somehow.

I keep mine set at view from last 5 days, and it was just set at view from last year.

I reset my defaults, and it appears to be ok now.

Resetting preferences seems to have worked for me.

It was due to the Miles administration area having the wrong settings... I've corrected them so things should be back to normal.
