Unread post by Moongazer » 2019-07-10, 17:39

When pressing the history button on the top-right side of the toolbar i only get results for the last 15 pages i visited/accessed, Is there a way to increase they're number?

Thank you in advance.

Use "Show All History"?

Short answer: you can't.

Long answer: 15 is a hard-coded value in the browser's UI code. At the moment this isn't a configurable value, although it -could- be made into a pref without too much effort. Either way it will require a patch to the source code to make this in any way configurable other than 15.
