Go directly to a particular page in a saved search
My actress ancestor has 75 pages of results , but when I go back to the saved search, I can't go straight to where I left off before (say page 54). I have to go to page 10, then 20,and so on,up to 50, then forward 4 singly, waiting ages for each page of results to load.(Tedious).We should be able to go directly to a specific page.

As user for just 3 days, I already can't believe you can't do this.

You can do this two ways. If you have 75 pages to search go to page 7. At the top of your screen where the website address is [https://britishnewspapersarchive.co.uk/........] it will end with page=6 (it's always one less for some reason). Simply change the 6 to 56 and you will go to page 57. It's always best to list such a large search in date order rather then relevance which the search engine favours as any mods you make will change the order they are listed. The second method is to use the date column on the left of the screen, where you can divide your results down into individual decades, years, months, etc.
