More Ask.Me Favorites

Ask.me's All-Time Favorites - I can't get enough!

Is there any way to increase the number of "most favorited all-time ask.mefi questions" listed on that page? Or maybe put more onto a second and third page? The first page has 20 questions with hundreds of amazing answers, and I'm left wanting more! KTHX

Sure! I just added a "Page: 1 2 3 ..." to the bottom of the all time popular page. You can click the page numbers to see more popular questions.

Yay! Another fan of the favorites here.

I also love the favorite comments on the "All Popular Favorites." Would it be possible to see more of that list as well?

dog food sugar, on that page you're seeing posts and comments "marked as a favorite most often in the past seven days", so that's all there is. It's just a look at what's popular recently.

We've gone around and around here in MetaTalk about having a master "popular posts and comments of all time" list that you can page through, and we probably won't put that together.
