Lists: Add page number links for lists
Can you please add page numbers to the lists so that we can skip to certain pages or to the end without clicking through each page one at a time? For longer lists it gets pretty tedious. thanks!

When it comes to very long user lists, I find the paging features of IMDb to be very inadequate. If you are looking at a 1000 item list, for instance, the only way to access pages very deep in the list is to flip one page at a time until you get there. With only 100 items displayed per page, it would take you "forever" to get to the very end of a 1000 item list. Even worse is the fact that the selector to go to the next page in the list is ONLY at the BOTTOM of each page, which means that you have to scroll down each page before you can go on to the next page. It would at least be an improvement if you could select going to the next page at the top AS WELL as the bottom of each page, so that you wouldn't needlessly have to scroll through the whole page just to get to the next page. Many other websites have 7 or 8 or more pages available for a user to jump to. Then, if you select the last available page, the system automatically displays the next 7 or 8 pages or whatever amount. Thus, you can at least jump through the list 7 or 8 pages at a time. Many websites even feature a "last page" & "first page" link on every page of a long list, so that you can jump to the end or beginning of a long list. If a "last page" link were available on IMDb user lists, then at least you could flip backwards from the end & get into the deeper pages that way. I just read about a "filter" option on user lists on this message board that I wasn't aware of & that would help to get at items buried deep in a very long list, & I will definitely check that out. However, even a well defined filter system doesn't solve the basic problem because with very long lists you would might still need to flip through a heck of a lot of pages to get to the part of the filtered list that you're interested in. Also, you might not think of a possible filter that would get you to a particular item that you might be interested in. There is a display feature for user lists that displays only one line per item, thereby showing more items per page, thereby lessening the number of pages that you would need to flip through to get to the end of a list, but with a 1000 item list that's still A LOT of pages to flip through, and the one line per item display has very limited information about each item. SO-O-O-O, to make a long story short, the IMDb user list system has very PRIMITIVE paging features for very long list access that REALLY needs to be improved, unless there's something that I'm just ignorant about.

The feature was removed years ago. I have over 7,000 movies (29 pages) in my Primary List: Movies I have Seen. To find a particular movie INSIDE my list I have to load the list page by page by page. IMDB, please consider adding that feature back again!! Note: This comment was created from a merged conversation originally titled Lists: We used to be able to jump to a page in My lists

When navigating through a list that has multiple pages -- I would like to see a GO TO PAGE button. Currently, you have to go and open each page and move through all the pages hitting a NEXT button instead of going directly to a desired page. Even having a LAST PAGE button would help. Also why not have the navigation buttons/features at the top of the each page as well as the bottom of the page. Currently, you have to scroll down to the bottom of each page (that is going past 100 entries) just to hit "NEXT PAGE". The next page brings you automatically to the top of the next page anyway so if there is more navigating to do the features are right there. Additionally, I suggest having an EDIT button at the bottom of each page - not just at the top of the page. There is currently a DONE button at both the top and bottom of each page. I would like to see a way to SET the SORT BY: List order selection for each individual list instead of now the SORT BY feature gets applied to ALL my lists. The sorting feature changes back to the default each time you move from list to list. Lastly, I would like a way to find how many TOTAL entries there are from ALL lists without manually adding each list together.

I think that IMDB should let users type in the page they want to go (e.g. 123 page). When I go to a list with hundreds of thousands TV shows and movies (I want to find something to watch), I have to click the 'next' button for god-knows-how-many times.Besides this, everything is good. Note: This comment was created from a merged conversation originally titled Lists: Please let me skip the numerous TV shows and movies.

1. It would be awesome if we could select single pages on our lists to jump to, instead of having just one next button. Then you have to scroll all the way down to the end, per page. Especially if you have big lists of 500+ movies as I do, this gets frustrating. This would make it a lot easier. 2. We should have a journal on our pages, so we can write miscellaneous things about movies and such. 3. Lastly, we should implement a visitor counters to our page and lists. **Tell me what you all think.** Note: This comment was created from a merged conversation originally titled Lists: Add page navigation

Possible to add page number links to lists, so you don't have to click through pages and pages? List page numbers. Note: This comment was created from a merged conversation originally titled Lists: Restore page navigation
