Automatic scrolling of threads
 

Dear Moderators,

Apologies if this has been discussed as I searched and couldn't find anything. Thanks for maintaining this Forum which is highly appreciated.

I have a suggestion and I hope you will you look into it.

To me, having the thread pages automatically going from page to page is super annoying, especially when you are trying to read a sticky or trying to go back to the previous page or main forum. You end up going to retype the address in the same browser to go back, because some threads are 30 pages, so you end up scrolling a lot. Stickies are almost non-accessible cause the thread just keeps on scrolling up.

Can you keep each page by itself, and you want to go back, just click on the previous page number instead of automatically having it one continuous extra long thread?

Thanks.

I think you're referring to 'Infinite Scroll', which can be enabled/disabled in your settings.

On the top right of the web page, choose your username to drop the menu, then 'My FlyerTalk'
On the left side, choose 'Edit Options' and then scroll down to 'Thread Display Options', and in that group, there is an option for 'Infinite Scroll'

If you disable this option - and then scroll to the bottom to Save changes, it should do what you want

It's taken 8 years for you to realise this feature was annoying?

Thanks! I just changed the setting. I had no idea it was just a setting.

It didn't used to be like this for me. I didn't know it was a change in the setting--I thought it was a new feature that this forum did. Only recently did the threads become infinite.

are you kidding -I love infinite scroll!!! We can hack it by advancing pages if needed. I love scroll!
