Is there any way I can stop infinite scroll in home page? Thanks.

No, our position has not changed here sorry.

Probably not. It will probably help if you take two steps back and describe the problem are you trying to solve.

Hi Jay, sorry for my delayed reply. We need to stop infinite scroll after loading 5 to 10 pages somehow or completely disable it in home page and even in category pages.

Can you say more about why that is important. What is your problem with infinite scrolling?

I can imagine that it can be an annoying feature for many users

That’s still not specific enough. We’re looking for more specific details here so the problem can be understood. Why does infinite scrolling need to be disabled? Why is a user finding infinite scrolling annoying? We’re looking for specific answers to these questions because disabling infinite scrolling isn’t trivial and there might be an alternative solution, or there might be a problem someone’s running into that may help us improve infinite scrolling.

I am not suggesting to remove this feature permanently, but maybe there can be a flag to disable it in certain scenarios

[图片] maysam: in certain scenarios Which scenarios do you have in mind? And like Kris, I’m also curious to know why.

I always had a problem with infinite scroll in tumblr. It didn’t load properly anymore after a certain amount of posts and it started to buck. It just wasn’t any fun. Maybe the problem was my weak internet connection? Also, it`s easier to find certain posts if they are on a certain page rather than in a whole line of posts.

The only time I have had a “problem” with infinite scroll is when I was looking for something specific and scrolled faster than than the responses were being returned. The “problem” being that I saw placeholders until the new content loaded in. IMHO, if the problem is because of a slow connection, I don’t think it will make a lot of difference if content is scrolled in or paginated to. But if you really want pagination you can use a browser with JavaScript disabled. You will miss out on a lot of the JavaScript goodness, but you will have pagination. If on the other hand the problem is because of exceeded memory limits that might be something important to look into.

Perhaps you are looking for the advanced search page? https://meta.discourse.org/search?expanded=true

Hi, I landed here, because I wanted to find a way to disable the infinite scroll on the Latest page. It’s our default tab/page and we would like users to be able to reach the footer, as there are important links there and also legal information. The forum is part of website that also includes a blog and other static pages. Therefore the information should be consistently showcased (same location, same format/appearance). A footer makes sense for that, because we don’t want to have a link buried in a menu. Would you have any tips for me?
