“/more” definitely doesn’t work but I think there is a different way to get page 2. @Mittineague what do you use in your extension?

Does it work for categories still? I can’t seem to make it work for a category?

It does, our “bugs” link goes to `https://meta.discourse.org/c/bug?order=op_likes&status=open` which works fine

Apologies for those that don’t have access, but I believe @sam and @zogstrip do (and if you feel the info should be copied here, let me know)

But I compiled a list of what querystrings I could find that work, where it works, and the ones that I can’t seem to get to work.

Taken from our Discourse Instance:

You can append these to the querystring of most URLs to get a custom filtered view

## Ones that I am able to use

**?status=\_**

- open - Open Topics Only
- closed - Closed Topics Only
- archived - Archived Topics Only
- visible - Visible Topics Only
- invisible - Invisible Topics Only
- deleted - Deleted Topics Only (this is available as of 1.2.0 beta3)

* * *

**?search=\_**

Creates a full page of search results instead of the limited search view using the search icon. Replace the \_ with your search terms.

* * *

**?state=\_**

- muted - Show topics I’ve muted
- regular - Show topics I have set to regular
- tracking - Show topics I’m tracking
- watching - Show topics I’m watching

* * *

**?ascending=true**

Show the topics by date in ascending order (value must be “true”, default is descending order)

* * *

**?order=\_**

- likes - by like count
- op\_likes - by likes on the Original Post
- views - by views
- posts - by post count (replies)
- activity - by last activity date (a.k.a. bumped\_at)
- posters - by the number of participants
- category - by category
- created - by topic creation date

* * *

**?max\_posts=\_**

Returns topics with post counts of \_ or lower.

* * *

**?min\_posts=\_**

Returns topics with post counts of \_ or greater.

## I can only get these to work on the Latest page

**?topic\_ids=\_**

Accepts a comma delimited string of topic\_ids.

* * *

**?exclude\_category=\_**

Accepts a category name (case-sensitive). Doesn’t seem to work for sub-categories.

## Ones that I can’t seem to get to work…

**?no\_definitions=1**

Hides the Category Definition Topics

* * *

**?category=\_**

Shows topics for a given category.

* * *

**?category=\_&no\_subcategories=1**

Hides sub-categories for a given category (must be used with category=\_\_)

That’ll be part of the URL, which is why you can’t get it to work. :‌-)

`/c/meta/latest` → category=meta
