Please don't break out Temple Reservation list into multiple pages
Because the temple reservation list is broken into multiple pages we are unable to print cards in various places in the alphabet. If I need to reprint a card with the last name of Adams and a card with the last name of Young I have to use two sheets of paper. If we mark a name to print on page 1, when we change to page 2 the mark from page 1 goes away. Please allow us to mark on multiple pages or, better yet, keep the list in one page that we can scroll down.

This is particularly difficult now that the temples are not returning cards, because after each visit I need to search through every reserved card to find which ones I have recently done, which is pretty complicated and then select them to print new cards. When it is split on different pages, and I have spent 5 - 10 minutes getting the checks on page 1 just to find them no longer selected when moving to page 2 it just leads to an unpleasant user experience. I understand that it may be difficult to retain the selection when moving from page to page, but it would be really helpful.

Naoto Jon Robinson I used to have the same issue, but have been trying out the different filters and that has helped a lot. Also, there is the "completed" page under the Temple category. Looking at it & clicking on each name there also helps.

I have a few thousand names reserved and I know how to use the filters pretty well. What I can't figure out is how to freeze the page I was on so that I don't have to remember it or write it down. I'll print ordinance cards from page 15 and when I return to the list it always goes back to page 1. How do I get it to stay on page 15 so that I can advance the page to 16 or go back to 14 if wanted. I've been able to do this on occasion, but not every time I want to. Help!!

Global Sharing Question...
How does global sharing work? I know that it's much more complex than "first in first out". I used to share with a number of friends around the world and they would then share names within the temple in which their membership resided. On occasion it seems that if I continue doing that with particular types of ordinances they get done much more quickly than if I just share from my account and let "Global Sharing" do the rest.
For example I use one particular temple to get initiatory work done and in the last 5 weeks they have completed hundreds of initiatory. If I used global sharing for those same names I'd be lucky to see a dozen or so completed. I'm guessing that the code says something like this..."if my temple needs shared family file initiatory names and patrons within my temple's district have submitted names needing initiatory, use them first and if there are no names submitted needing initiatory within my temple district go get names from the global shared list." Just a guess, but that's the way it feels and I could build a pretty good case that that's the way it works. Thanks for someone's help here.

When you share your reservations to the Shared temple list, the following can happen: Other users who are also related to the same people can reserve the ordinances directly or via Ordinances Ready and complete them in a temple of their choice anywhere in the world. (They have a limited 90-day reservation.) Your local temple district can pull ordinances they may need. If another temple needs a particular ordinance and they don't have access to any in their district, they may pull from your district and your reservations may be done in that other temple.
In the future, the temples will pull from a central list - first in first out. The oldest temple reservation in the Shared list will be done first - with no respect to temple district.

FYI
I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...
[ And, I happen to be a Member of the Church ... ]
Belatedly; as, I missed your original post in June this Year ...
Further to what has already been proffered ...
It was disappointing, to say the least, when the "Continuous" List of "Reservations", for "Temple" Work, was REPLACED, by the "Paging" (ie. "Pages").
The reason/inference; being, that the "Continuous" Lists, that for MANY Users/Patrons (who are Members of the Church), was Extremely LARGE (ie. "Thousands"), used far too much "System" Resources; thereby, "Slowing" the "System" down.
Hence, why 'FamilySearch' went, from "Continuous" Lists, to "Paging" (ie. "Pages") Lists.
Now ...
That Said ...
You are not alone ...
Unfortunately ...
What you desire is not a new request; and, had been requested COUNTLESS times, by COUNTLESS Users/Patrons (who are Members of the Church), that being, to enable the selecting (and, printing), of individuals/persons "Temple" Work across "Pages", in our List of "Reservations" for "Temple" Work.
As such ...
Due to the "Change", from "Continuous" Lists, to "Paging" (ie. "Pages") Lists ...
I DO NOT think, that 'FamilySearch', will accede to such a request/suggested enhancement, on the grounds that; and, as they have ADDED, "Filters", to the "Reservations" Lists; where, it is/has been implied/suggested, that we SHOULD be able to "Sort" the individuals/persons that we require, by using those "Filters". to get the result they we desire.
So ...
That Said ...
According to 'FamilySearch', it is SUPPOSEDLY, a very SIMPLE matter, of getting to know how to use, the "Filters", in the "Reservations" Lists, to achieve the desired result ...
I will just leave that with you; and, say no more ...
We can but live in hope ...
Just my thoughts.
I know that this certainly does not help/assist; but, I hope that this gives yo some, insight; and, perspective.
