confusion

[Ben Calwell]

I'm still getting used to this new format. Yesterday, I mistakenly responded to a question that Michael Kadillac posted six years ago! I thought it was a recent question from him.

This being the LF Forum, no doubt your answer was probably timed about right.

I know what you mean, Ben. I was going to say it's a photographic exercise, intended to help us see the little details (like the date in the upper left corner of a post), but Wilhelm is probably more correct.

No doubt Ben,you found one of many disadvantages of the new format. Like the constant clicking on the numbered pages if you want to see the thread in its length - before it was just simple scrolling. This is typical of all things digital - no habit can be taken for long, no acquired knowledge last for long in its practical sense.

[Ralph Barker]

GPS - you can change the number of posts, up to a max of 40, that will be displayed per page via settings in your user profile.

You can, but it's less user friendly than before. Just more and more clicking...

this is to keep us from getting old and lazy.

From getting lazy? perhaps. From getting old? just the opposite - the quicker things change, the quicker you get older. You don't even notice and the bus is already at next station... The old forum? What was it? How did it look?

[Vick Vickery]

OK, so I'm not too good with a computer! So how do I get to my user profile to find the settings section to change the number of posts per page???

Log in first, find it in the upper bar then a click, click...
