What problem does Add Pagination to Top of Shared Matches solve?
Ancestry only puts the pagination controls at the bottom of a shared matches page, so every time you want to move to the next page you have to scroll all the way down. On long shared match lists, that scroll happens dozens of times per session. Add Pagination to Top of Shared Matches adds a second pagination bar at the top of the page so you never have to scroll to change pages.
How does Add Pagination to Top of Shared Matches work?
On any match’s shared matches page, a pagination bar is added above the shared match list with a previous arrow, a page number box, the total page count, and a next arrow. Typing a number in the box and pressing Enter jumps straight to that page. Left and right arrow keys on the keyboard also move you through the pages one at a time. The feature also shortens the long Filter shared matches button to just Filter so the top of the page is less cluttered.
