Suggestion: Keep the number of displayed links as the default in all current/future sessions.

Hi.

Quick request for a feature. The default page length of 15 "links" is annoyingly small. I'd like to set a new default length, and have it persist between sessions. For example, if I log in, I get the first 15 links. If I switch that to 50 then click 'Search', add a few links, then click on the 'Admin Interface' link at the top, it reverts back to 15 items per page.

I'd prefer that there was either an easily accessible pop-up menu, or configuration variable to set the default number of links to show -- either from a short list of prechosen values (50 100 200 ALL) or a user defined value.

Thanks.

There won't be a configurable parameter for this in any future version, because there are 10,000 people who think that tiny option and this little feature should be a parameter, and we would end up with a mammoth setting page.

That's exactly why there is a plugin API: to keep things light

Also, while it's perfectly understandable that you don't think you qualify to write a plugin, just be aware why you should not hack core files.

Simple plugin to modify the default number of links displayed :

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Custom number of displayed links
Plugin URI: http://yourls.org/
Description: Custom number of displayed links
Version: 0.1
Author: Ozh
Author URI: http://ozh.org/
*/

yourls_add_filter( 'admin_view_per_page', 'ozh_custom_number_of_displayed_links' );
function ozh_custom_number_of_displayed_links() {
    return 99;
}
