Is it possible to update the forums to include and "all" options when viewing posts vs the current "page 1, 2, 3, 4, etc" ?

I don't think there is -- I haven't seen one on other forums run by this software.

It has been a while since I have admin'ed a pHp board, but the answer is that this is generally set in your profile/general setting. This particular pHp board does not let you change your settings, only your profile. If you did have access to your settings, there would be a drop down box that would let you select messages/page.
"all" can, iirc, be an option if the admin allows it. Generally, when I admin a pHp board I set the upper limit at about 40.
There is no ability, however, on a thread by thread basis to select "all" as a page option. The pages will always be 1, 2, 3...ect" with "first" and "last" also often being options.
The "page display" and "messages per page" setting are two different things. I think what you really want the admin to do is allow you to display more messages per page than the board default (15 for this board). That should be possible if they want to do that.
