Description

Admins,

The interface at download.opensuse.org is growing on me, but the
frustrating part is I have to set the drop-down for number of files to show
each time to 100, etc.. Can we add a cookie to save that info. It we are
dealing with the additional overhead of the interface -- it may as well work
for us.

This is a cookie I would actually welcome :)

oops - forgot to send it to the admin e-mail. This is your copy.

I think this is not an infrastructure/configuration issue, but something that is not implemented in the software, and should hence be reported upstream at https://github.com/openSUSE/mirrorcache.
Leaving to @andriinikitin to confirm.

Yeah it was the plan to have cookies like that. But unfortunately it is far in the priority queue, so it will take a while or waiting for contributors who wants to improve the experience.

Meanwhile you might find that /download route suits better for you, because it works without ajax table and shows all the files at once, e.g.
https://download.opensuse.org/download/update/leap/15.5/sle/noarch/

Alternatively, there are url parameters to filter files, not sure if it helps, e.g.
https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/?P=*DVD*iso
https://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/15.5/sle/repodata/?REGEX=(primary|updateinfo|filelist).*
