When the multi-hundred page threads get a hit, it takes a pretty major amount of database processing to fulfill those, so when the bots come indexing the server gets choked. They have been a convenience, but now the inconvenience is outweighing the convenience. -------------- "You can't teach an old dogma new tricks." - Dorothy Parker

Or maybe make availability of the "All "option conditional on the length of the thread? Or an option to load range of page numbers, with some upper limit on how many?

They have been a convenience, but now the inconvenience is outweighing the convenience. Idea: For each thread, automatically generate a complete copy of pages 1 thru (N-1). Whenever someone clicks on the “all” button, retrieve that almost-all copy from storage, and append whatever the content of page N is. How much of a hassle would that be to implement?

That is an option I've been kicking around for a while. The "All" option actually required me to make a new Ikonboard action to fulfill it, but that action simply needed to tweak existing code for getting a smaller page range. I'm not sure how much effort would be needed to have Ikonboard point to the *right* static page per topic. -------------- "You can't teach an old dogma new tricks." - Dorothy Parker

Wesley R. Elsberry Posts: 4991 Joined: May 2002 (Permalink) Posted: July 19 2018,02:09    I've dyked out the "All" links. I need to think about what, if anything, I do to handle putting some replacement functionality in. Given that registration is shut down because of spammers being able to game the software, it may be time to finally just shift to a newer forum package. There are various features that I haven't found in any replacement, which is disturbing, but bit rot seems to have caught up with the IkonBoard installation. -------------- "You can't teach an old dogma new tricks." - Dorothy Parker

Does this indicate that someone else has been silently banned at UD, or merely that there's an unclosed tag that's crept in?
