      If you are talking about user settings here, everyone can define how many posts per page should show up under "User Settings/Account/Posts per Page".

              5.2.4 is obsolete and unsupported. Please upgrade to 5.3.4.
              If you are still having problems after that, please start your own thread with full details of the problem.

                  There is no "last version". A new version is released roughly every two months, which contains a mixture of bug fixes, performance improvements, server-side compatibility changes and new features.
                  This is a normal part of software development and all products work this way.

                    I know this is five years later, but we're using 5.3.4. The advice above does not seem to apply anymore.

                    We have users who can get 40 messages per screen, and the setting in AdminCP > Settings > Options > Topic Display Options > User-Settable Maximum Displayed Posts is set to 5,10,20.

                    At one time, the maximum had been set to 5,10,20,30,40, but I wanted to trim that back to see if that would lighten the load on our server. Having changed that has made no difference to our users' choices, let alone their actual maximum; they can still choose up to 40, even in new accounts.

                    Any idea how to make that setting actually work?

                      The above is still correct but doesn't apply in your situation. The default on the module doesn't change the value that the user has set.

                      You can reset users to the default by running this query:
                      Code:
                      update user set maxposts=-1;
                      You can run queries within the vBulletin Admin Control Panel by going to Maintenance -> Execute SQL Queries.

                      To run Queries in the Admin Control Panel you need to edit your /core/includes/config.php file and add your user ID to the Can Run Queries section. It looks like:

                      // ****** USERS WITH QUERY RUNNING PERMISSIONS ******
                      // The users specified here will be allowed to run queries from the control panel.
                      // See the above entries for more information on the format.
                      // Please note that the ability to run queries is quite powerful. You may wish
                      // to remove all user IDs from this list for security reasons.
                      $config['SpecialUsers']['canrunqueries'] = '';

                      Place your user id between the single quotes.
