Why page 2?

I have two questions, actually.

1. Why, on the current Soop Kitchen thread am I being taken to page 2 rather than page 1 (my 'customisation' puts the newest at the top)? I'm having to tell it specifically to go to page 1.

2. Why, in the customising bit, is there the option to have 1000 posts on one page when you can, in fact, only have 100? This is on an iPad, which I suppose might make a difference, in which case why are the oprions more than 100 even visible?

I think you can choose to flip the page and to have the pages in the opposite order as two separate moves, Baggs Maybe you have done one but not the other?

Hmm. I'll try that except the reverse order thing is permanent so I only flipped today to see if normal procedure, either way, would resume. It didn't. I've had this problem before occasionally.

Ha! Flipping to oldest posts first takes me to page 6. There are 8 pages according to the headers. Methinks there's a fault.

I have 1000 posts on one page as a default setting on lap top, phone and tablet. I bookmark to reach the newer posts as I don't seem to be able to read going upwards. grin

I have just complained that my "I'm On" lists go back over a month. They have told me they should be deleted automatically after 10 days without any further posts, but it isn't happening.

Worked out the page 2 (or 6) thing: bookmark blush

Still can't get more than 100 posts per page.

I did it years ago Baggs aso have no idea how to do it now. blush

What to do seems straightforward, it's just that the site doesn't seem to remember my choices. Well, not the one for maximum posts. a 'page'. I wonder if I have to do it on a laptop first? Although why that would make a difference, I don't know.

Have you noticed no-one from Site has replied? Rude? Much?
