Environment

Python version: 3.7.7
NetBox version: 2.8.6

Steps to Reproduce

Create more than 25 Prefixes (or other model with paginated list view)
Remove any pagination preferences from profile
At the bottom select 50 elements per page

Expected Behavior

The option to set the items per page should still be present if all the models fit on one page in case a user wants to go back to fewer items per page.
The current page indicator should either be hidden or show only one element without the "next" and "previous" buttons.

Observed Behavior

The whole pagination "container" is hidden if there is only one page to display. The only way to reduce the number of elements per page afterwards is to delete the entry from the saved user preferences.

A Solution

A solution would be to only hide the page indicators by moving the "per page" settings out of the if statement in paginator.html:

...
{% if paginator.num_pages > 1 %}
        <nav>
            <ul class="pagination pull-right">
                ...
            </ul>
        </nav>
{% endif %}
        <form method="get">
            ...
        </form>
...
