Sugestion to print or view all messages in a thread

[MrSmith99]

Some threads are a rather lengthy how-to that I'd to save as a manual on how to do something.
There should be a way to either print (I use PDFCreator as printer) or view all messages in a thread, at one time!

Just saying...

Right above your post you'll see "Thread Tools". Click on that and the click on "show printable version". You can print the thread now.

It only shows one page at a time (1 of 3 if the thread is 3 pages).

have you set your posts per page to 40? that should get most on one page

I don't see any place to change the number of messages per page. It's not under Display on the thread controls and I can't find it under settings either.

Go to settings, general settings. You see Number of Posts to Show Per Page:

Thanks tmcase! I went to general settings several times and missed it. I was looking for something with a number and it had the word "default" in it. I'm good to go!
