Need "View All" option to load entire thread

Hey MP dev team, will there be a day for us to ever see that "View All" button? It's okay. You can tell the truth.

Thanks for the bump, Mei. I will bring this up and see if we can get it added. I'll follow up either way. 

I’d love to see this added, too!

I'm with Mei.  It's almost 2023----time for a "View All" feature!

Well, it's almost 2025. 5+ years have passed since the initial request. 

Here is an idea for you MP developer(s). You can have the same "More" button as on tick list to facilitate pagination of content loading, but do provide a way for readers to see the entire thread on the same page. Is it that hard of a problem to crack? 

Hi Mei, me again :) First, users like yourself are why MP is great so thank you for sticking with this. In an effort to be more transparent, I don't think it's as much an issue of whether this is hard (I'm not a developer so don't quote me on that) but if it has measurable value. Personally, I think it's a great idea and there's obviously precedent for it elsewhere and even in MP itself, but in order to prioritize it above other work, we need to show that it's something that some meaningful portion of MP users care about. Happy to discuss further and appreciate any feedback. 

I appreciate the transparency, Zander! 

To be honest, I have a hard time understanding why not everyone of my fellow MP users wants this feature, but I admit I often times simply do not understand my fellow human beings, period. (I will not get into politics here.) 

Guess all I can ask is for other MP users to speak up, or lurkers to "like" my first post, so we can show the MP developers that we do care. Would 50 likes be good enough? 

Zander, you know how sometimes a developer will go in to fix something in a code section, and remark in passing - "I also fixed X since I was in there, and it was bugging me." ie bonus code?

Put it on the developers' bonus code list. Maybe one of them will just do it.

I would also like this feature

Added my thumbs-up!

Done :) And I've flagged it with a couple folks so here's to hoping..  

As long as it's optional I think this would be great feature.

But I don't want to have to download 50 pages of photos to look at the latest post in the memes thread!
