I'm aware of that, but you must be logged in. The default behavior if you're not logged in is to have infinite scrolling. That's annoying.

Disable or make it not the default option. Flyertalk is unusable with it enabled, who likes having their screen jump around to random parts of a thread?! Sometimes doesn't even let you scroll since it automatically kicks you to a different post. Yes I can disable in when I'm logged in, but I tend to use computers that I don't want to login to. And I'd imagine new users visiting Flyertalk for the first time aren't going to put up with a broken website for long.

Why is there no option in edit options to disable infinite scroll? (to merge)
Flyertalk is annoying enough to navigate as the site is a jumbled mess, but what makes it even harder is when you are just trying to scroll up to read a wiki, and it keeps loading new comments you dont want to see. The solutions online talk about disabling infinite scroll (which i believe i've done previously), but that's not an option in my settings anymore. This site is pretty much unusable for me

We’re likely to merge this into the existing https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/tech...p-version.html. The illustrations in that thread, reproduced below, still exist right now. JDiver, Co-Moderator |

IIRC there used to be a "Go to Wiki" button but maybe that on the paginated site layout. Is there any way to navigate the wiki aside from clicking the "first" button? Obviously scrolling up doesn't help! |

If you have a questions, comment or bug report regarding the new implementation of "infinite scroll" for the desktop (non-mobile) version of FlyerTalk, please use this thread.

I like Infinite Scroll in general, but Search doesn't seem to work within such a thread. That gives me no way of re-finding a comment of mine after subsequent activity puts it somewhere in the middle of the thread.

I actually love infinite scroll but it is hard to get to the wiki once you're down in the weeds. For example, Google searches often pick up the nth post of a thread.

agreed, I used infinity scroll ever since it was introduced but disabled today. The wiki page is impossible to get to when auto-scroll kicks in unless you press the page number for page navigation

Obviously scrolling up doesn't help! If you type in "1" in the "Go to Page" box in the lower right corner, it will take you directly to the wiki. |
Has anyone figured out a way to disable scroll on mobile/phone? It’s maddening! Basically unusable bc page keeps jumping. |

If you open the menu in the upper left corner and scroll to the bottom, you should see a "Full Site" option.

Yes. I saw that. But it means I’d have to use full site mode on the phone. Is there a solution for the mobile skin? |
allow disabling the infinite scroll in threads
I have looked but didnt see a way to disable infinite scroll, sorry if it exists.
Infinite scroll really makes getting back to the top of the page annoying. Would be great to have the option to just have the site act like a normal forum in this regard. |
Go here: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/prof...do=editoptions
Click "Disable Infinite Scroll" and hit "Save" at the bottom |
