Title: Is there a limit on PM inbox/outbox?
Post by: dogie on April 20, 2015, 05:28:32 AM
Just went into my sent PMs to find some old links and it appears I can't go past page 256. Without a useful way to search sent PMs, I'll have to go through page by page to find the exact time it, as sorting by user puts it past 256.

Can we get an inbox increase or is there another solution?

There is no limit on inbox/outbox. theymos said this earlier.

P.S. Try https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm;f=outbox;sort=date;start=5120.

I thought so to, but then search might be messing up. If I sort by alphabetical, on page 1 I have the start of the alphabet [weird symbols etc], on page 256 I get the "s"es. s-z is missing or not sorting properly.

Search on the PMs is terrible and never works properly for me. I think theymos has acknowledged this before somewhere.

Sorry, I was tired :P "Ordering", rather than search.

"Search" function doesn't search in outbox AFAIK. I don't know about another issue as I haven't reached that many pages.

TBH search is really useful and works great for me. I can't search in outbox which is the only issue I am having. Almost all times, I get the result I want when searching.

I have more than 256 pages in my outbox and the sorting seems to work fine for me.

Have a play with my inbox if you can. Go to the final page (now 257), sort by "To", the final name displayed is "superresistant". Somehow its cutting off or mis-sorting all names after su, including PMs sent to you.

Confusing! ??? Are you sorting inbox or outbox?
