Hello! While the sortable tables are lovely, the other features enabled by this config change are causing us problems with how we do triage and tracking.

More info about the feature is available on Christian Legnitto's weblog here:

  http://christian.legnitto.com/blog/2012/04/18/new-mediawiki-bugzilla-feature/

Specifically the "JavaScript tables" section.

If it's possible, it would be even better if you could just turn off pagination (10 result display limit by default) and the alternating-row-colour support.

Thanks!
Never mind.  People seem to like it, so I'll see if i can work around the issues :)

I found this bug after 10 minutes of googling to find a way to disable pagination and just display all results or at least have a way to specify the number of results per page.

Please help/clarify/reopen!

My initial comment here was to be the old saw "it's not a fault, it's a feature" and, going by the usage it gets, that appears to mainly be the case. Could either of you expand on what the issue that you have is, though it might be that Christian Legnitto will need to be asked if any change is possible rather than a 'turn it off' approach which will probably affect more users.
For sure, all I would need is a way to opt out of that feature --- I don't need that feature to be disabled for everybody!

The reason why I need to opt out of that feature is that for my use case it's a lot more convenient to see all in one page; in particular, that allows the user to use Ctrl+F to search in all of the table, which is impossible when the table is paged; and there will never be so many entries, in my case, that paging would become necessary.
