How can i increase the number of pages in "action.recent"?

[FragaCampos]

Hello there.

I've realized that the page where the last messages are shown (action,recent) only has 10 pages.
Is there a way to increase the number of pages shown there?

Thanks in advance.

Admin>current theme.

Thanks, but that's not what i asked. That's for the last messages in the forum's info center, it doesn´t change the number of pages of "action,recent".
If you click on the link i provided in the first message, you'll know what i mean.

I don't think that feature's available in v1.1.x, is it?

In Recent.php, find someting similar to the following, and edit it accordingly... if you want to display 20 pages, change it to 195.  If you want 30 pages, 295.

Code Select Expand

if (isset($_REQUEST['start']) && $_REQUEST['start'] > 95)
$_REQUEST['start'] = 95;


That *should* do it.

Keep in mind, that this can/will create a performance hit, thus why it's limited at 10 pages by default.

Thanks, SlammedDime, but I changed it to 195 and it didn't work. It still shows 10 pages.


I hope i'm not being too dubious, here what i want to change:

Still not totally sure what you mean...

If I've got this right, go to:

Admin>Posts and Topics>Topic Settings and make "Max topic size to show "All" posts" whatever you like.

From your original post, though, it's the number of pages posted that changes that.

If you want it increased, either post more, or alter the number of posts per page.

No Kat, the default maximum number of pages to display is 10.  There is no setting to adjust this in the admin panel, it has to be changed in code.

Click on the link in his first post and perhaps you might understand.

Fraga - Make one more change that this should do it...

Code (Find) Select Expand


// !!! This isn't accurate because we ignore the recycle bin.
$context['page_index'] = constructPageIndex($scripturl . '?action=recent', $_REQUEST['start'], min(100, $modSettings['totalMessages']), 10, false);
}


Code (replace) Select Expand


// !!! This isn't accurate because we ignore the recycle bin.
$context['page_index'] = constructPageIndex($scripturl . '?action=recent', $_REQUEST['start'], min(200, $modSettings['totalMessages']), 10, false);
}


(We're changing the 'min' function call from 100 to 200.)

It worked!
Thanks a lot for your time and patience, SlammedDime! 

Just for others to see:
