How do I set the number of Posts shown in a thread in the Threaded Mode Window? Currently I have 7 Posts that show in the window, I would like to make the number greater.

Also, when a Thread gets long and there are a lot of posts forming a single thread, a scroll bar will appear and the post is displayed so that a person has to scroll back and forth to read the post. How do I set the maxium size of the Thread Window and the area that the post is displayed in to eleminate the scroll bar?

Thanks for your input.

Check these settings:

Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> Threaded / Hybrid Mode Options (showthread)

You can adjust the depth of the tree and the length of the titles to help the scrolling problem.

Thank you for that tip Jake. By setting the numbers a little differently that does help.

Does anyone know how to set the size of the Thread window so that more post can be seen in it? Currently I can only see seven posts at a time and it requires a lot of scrolling in long threads.

Also, is there a way to set the maximum horizontal size of the window?

Is there a way to set the maximum size of the window where a post is read, so horizontal scrolling is avoided to read posts in long threads?

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Show Thread Templates -> showthread_list

This is the height of the threaded list:



$userjs
// -->
</script>

$spacer_open

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:0px; margin-bottom:$stylevar[cellpadding]px">
<tr>
<td class="alt2">
<div style="height:150px; <if condition="$show['postlistwidth']">width:$postlistwidth;</if> overflow:auto; border:2px inset; padding: 0px; text-align:$stylevar[left];" class="alt1" id="links">
<div class="smallfont">
<!-- start post links -->
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
$links
//-->
</script>
<!-- end post links -->
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
