Why do threads keep disappearing on this forum?

Musicman247 · #1 (**permalink**) 01-14-2008, 11:38 PM

Mods, can anybody help me on this? I've psted on a couple of non-existent threads to bring them out, but it seems that after a certain number of active threads the last ones go into a nether region.

I'm guessing it' because of the Forum Title change. Since there's no longer a "Touch" Forum the threads disappear. Any help from the admins or mods would be very appreciated.

Try clicking on USERCP on top menu, then scroll down left side to 'list subscriptions', all threads you have posted in will be listed

Makes it easy to track your older threads

I understand the UserCP tab and also subscriptions, but many of my subscriptions do not show up on the forum after they get "bumped" off of the second page. Does no one else find it strange that the forum used to have over 7 pages of threads, and no there are only EVER 2 pages? Is it the same on the other forum pages as well?

Edit: Nope. Titan forum has 11 pages. Vogue never goes above 2.

Here's an example, mods. Look at the two pages of threads for this forum and see if you find the forum titled "change ur touch cube to what u want" It's not there.

You can find that thread linked to in the FAQ, and you can link to it : http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=11035

But you cannot find it from the forum itself. This is not helpful for users who may only come by once in a while, or are new users. Please look into this.

I see 57 pages of threads on this (Vogue) forum.

Have you checked your settings to show all posts/threads from the beginning? Maybe you accidentally set it to only show the last 2 weeks or something alike.

Yeah I had this problem too when I was searching for something and I noticed that there were only 2 pages available, and I never changed anything in my options, so just now I went to my options and set it to display all threads and, wala! It works now, over 50 pages. But still now sure why this happened in the first place.

Aha! I had it set on "Use Forum Default" and it was only showing 2 pages. I've got it on "Show All" now. Thanks Pibe!

But you still might want to make the Forum Default show a few more pages than 2...for the reasons mentioned above.

yeah they changed the settings at some point because I had this issue the other day.

Mine changed to the forum default of 2 pages as well, and I had to go in and change it so I could see all the threads.

I wonder what is causing this........

Mine started only showing a limit of two pages too. I never changed anything in the settings. I just went in and switched to show all threads and now its back to normal again.
