Technically not all but up to a maximum of x posts. It's what M3F got going and I believe it's up to three pages worth on their forum (one of their pages contains 30 msgs max).

say a thread has 10 pages (300 posts).. wtom wants to see all the posts on 1 page as opposed to 10 pages 30 posts each.. correct?

aaah.. found it

Maximum messages to display in a topic page

it was 30.. now it's 60.. i could try 99999 or something.. it's just faster/easier to load pages with less topics.. so 30 it si for now.. sorry it's a board not a user feature :(

Maybe it's just something in my profile settings but see how some threads have pages "1 2 All" or "1 2 3 All" while others that have more than 3 pages worth of posts, don't have the "All" link?

Clicking on All will show all posts from page one thru two (or three) in one page.

hmmm interesting.. for one it's inconsistant..so it's either up to the THREAD or the OP..i'll have a look at it at work.. ;)

warren.. fixed.. :D

it's counter intuitive though.. (or at least it was when i first read it)

this is the option

Max number of replies in a topic to show "All" posts:
(0 to never show "All")

it was set to 0.. so i set it to 1 but nothing happened.. i read it again, slower, and voila my logic was off ;) .. i set it to 9999 for now :) it should suffice..

holy crap, that means we can have a 1000 pages long thread and still be able to read ALL posts on one page? That's gonna be laggage ;D
