Default Threads prior to 6 August?

My apologies if I've missed some obvious piece of functionality, or an announcement somewhere - but I can't seem to see older threads (those before 6 August - one month ago)? when I go to the ATM forum, there are only 7 pages of threads.

Go to "User CP" (see upper right of the panel above next to FAQ). Then select "Edit Options". About halfway down you will see options for how threads are displayed. Click on the down arrow and select what you prefer. I set mine to display all threads.

Yep, quite handy, as you can also choose the number of posts that display per page (5/10/20/30/40).

You can also click on "Archive" in the lower right corner and bring up all the older threads in a very compact format.

Your Welcome! I had to figure out the same thing when I was searching for an old thread.

Hey, that's really good! Mind you, Potential Threat to the Huygens Mission is still 8 pages long, even in the compact form...

At the bottom of the page is a box labelled Display Options You need to change the "From The" setting from its default of last month.

This overides your User options allowing you to temporarily increase the number of threads shown.
