Remove Load More in Add Media Window
-
Upgraded to 5.8 and I am little baffled at the “load More” button now sitting in my add media window. Many times I have to scroll through the media library quickly to find something. Now I have to stop, click on a button and wait, then scroll, click on a button and wait… I looked to see if there is any kind of button or option to hit to stop this from happening. I can’t find anything about this at all.
I appreciate any help to remove this unnecessary nuisance. Please stop adding things we do not need. It’s bad enough we are dealing with Gutenturd.
If I missed something please let me know, I am not above eating a little crow.
Thank you!

I downgraded to 5.7.2 and it does not have the button, it infinite scrolls. So that is where I am going to let it sit.
Then I put in a little snippet from allowing WP to automatically update my core. No way I am going to keep going through this malarkey.
But if you do not want to downgrade, you can load this plugin:
https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/media-library-enable-infinite-scrolling/So instead of having common sense functionality, WP decided to add something that literally NO ONE wanted and we have to now do work arounds to get it back to normal. This will reduce some of my development, editing work by 2-3x.
“This change is a part of an effort from the WordPress accessibility team to improve the experience for end-users.”
uh what? say what?
I think you might want to get different people in this position, no offense. I will drop it now, since we have a work around again for something no one wanted.
It’s so poorly conceived and implemented that we now going to do a git-hub massive push to 4K of our websites and add this plugin.
“USER EXPERIENCE” is something that gets thrown around a lot. Some people get it, other’s don’t.
This time around WordPress drop the ball. This is a huge issue and probably should look into resolving it, rather than yet another work around.
OK, ill shut up now. Ive said my peace.
Thank you for the help though, I do not aim my criticism to anyone except the person who made the horrible decision to do this.

Downgrading is not a long term viable option. Dealing with poor decisions from WordPress brass is unfortunately a long term issue.
Our coding people, who are not very happy, have already started working on some code that will negate the “load More” button on all of our sites (over 4k).
I have to tell you, WP makes it harder and harder to back them when we are constantly having to perform work arounds and deal with issues that could of been prevented from happening.
Lastly, whoever made the decision for the button? They are a great example of what is wrong with larger companies and businesses. A person or a few people making an asinine decision that effects hundreds of thousands of people.
Maybe give them a different job to prevent this from happening again.
