XF 2.2 No pages of threads in nodes?

[bennylava]

I have 37 threads in a node on my forum called "The back porch". Only 20 are visible.

Usually that's fine because you simply scroll down and click on the next page. But I have no next page, so effectively the rest of the threads don't exist. How can I make my "Next page" or "2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ..." to appear at the bottom?

So that users can see the older threads that aren't on page 1.

Thank you

Yes but I'm a newb to the program, where do you find this setting?

Individual node settings under Advanced

So if I go to Forums>Nodes there is no Advanced tab that appears anywhere. Can you say exactly how this is found?

It's at the bottom when editing the node.

Thanks but which one of those options affects the page count of a node? Each one of those sounds like it applies to something different. And I looked through all of my settings in Advanced options there, but nothing talks about node pages.

This is the screen I see when I click Forums>Nodes>The Back Porch

Advannced >> Thread list date limit

Ok I will change that from "None" to "1 year" in an attempt to fix the glitch I must be having. Mine was set to none already.

It won't automatically delete threads that are older than 1 year, will it? I never want any thread to be auto-deleted.

 

[philmckrackon]

It is only for listing / viewing.

 

[bennylava]

Unfortunately changing it to 1 year had no effect. That should have shown a second page because I have many threads that are less than 1 year old.

Is this a glitch I'm having?

There will not be any thread deletion. Have you tried the default XF style and no addons?
What XF 2.2 version are you on?
Here I a XF 2.2.17 site I help with showing the page selection.

Looked using the default style and set the Thread list date limit to 30 days. The page selector is only @ the bottom after clicking on 'Show older items".



After clicking"Show older items".

 

[bennylava]

Well mine is set to 1 year so I must be having a bug. I'll check with programmer and see if he can fix it.

I disabled the addons that I'm comfortable disabling. The last 3, I'm a bit concerned what will happen if I disable them. Because content has been added since they were installed and I don't want to wreck all that stuff.

Disabling add-ons doesn't delete content.

Disabling add-ons doesn't delete content.

So to clarify, all the content would appear exactly as it was before, as though the addon had never even been disabled?

I have a meme thread where the order is reversed so users only have to check the top of the first page to see the latest memes. More convenient for them that way. I had to have a developer rig it all up for me because the addon alone couldn't do everything. I have no idea what would happen if I disabled it, maybe it wouldn't work properly again.

You would have to check with the author of the add-on to confirm but that should be the case.

Ok it seems the addons were not the problem. I disabled all of them and the problem remains. No pages of threads in nodes.

Is there perhaps another setting somewhere which could affect this?

 

[Paul B]

It's your custom style.

Add page-2 to the URL of the node and the second page of threads loads.

Contact the style author for assistance.
